2. Harish living in a village with his family had to take a old man, a victim of snake bite to the district
hospital 40 km away from his village for an immediate treatment to save his life. He found that the
battery of his bike was not working properly and the kick lever was also damaged. He removed the 6
V battery and fixed a 4 dry cell pack (1.5 V each) in place of the battery. The bike still did not start.
His younger brother Dadu was using a solar power lantern fitted with a 6 V storage battery ( lead
acid accumulator battery). He told his elder brother that the dry cells could not deliver the sufficient
current required to initiate ignition in the bike. Dadu brought his storage battery and helped his elder
brother Harish, to start the bike and take the patient to the city for treatment.
(i) List two qualities possessed by Harish and two qualities possessed by Dadu.
(ii) Why 4 dry cells of emf 1.5 V each were not able to supply the sufficient current required for
starting the bike?
(iii) Guess in which way he would have connected the dry cells to get the emf of 6 V.
3. TanviRastogi and AyushiSinha were performing an experiment to determine the internal resistance
of a cell using a potentiometer set up. After completing the circuit when the jockey was touched with
two extreme ends of the wire the deflection in the galvanometer was not reversed. They have tried
their level best to rectify the circuit to ensure both side deflection of the galvanometer needle but
could not succeed. In order to hurriedly complete the experiment Tanvi suggested that they will copy
and use the observations of the students of II batch. Ayushi however did not agree. She approached
the teacher for help. The teacher told them 3 possible causes of same sided deflection. Now Tanvi
and Ayushi completed the experiment and determine the value of internal resistance of cell using

l2
balancing lengths when the key of the auxiliary circuit is open and closed respectively.
