(b) Voltmeter reading / terminal pd drops
Battery has internal resistance
pd occurs within battery / ’lost volts’ within battery / emf is shared between internal and
external resistances

12 * 7.5/32.5 = 2.7[7] V or calculates I = 0.369 A

(a) (i) work done (by the battery) per unit charge (1)
10 or (electrical) energy per unit charge
or pd/voltage when open circuit/no current
(ii) the resistance of the materials within the battery (1)

(b) (i) (use of E = V + Ir)
12 = V + 800 × 0.005 (1) (working/equation needs to be shown)
V = 12 – 4 = 8.0V (1)
(ii) (use of P = I2r)
P = 8002 × 0.005 (1) (working/equation needs to be shown)
P = 3200 (1) W (1) or J s–1
