The maximum power that a combination of two cells of EMF \(E_1\) & \(E_2\) \((E_1>E_2)\) can transfer to an external resistance is \(2~\text{W},\) when they are connected in series. When the EMF's are connected in opposite sense, but in series, this power is \(0.5~\text{W}.\) The ratio of the EMF's is, \((E_1/E_2)\)
1. \(4\)
2. \(3\)
3. \(2\)
4. \(1\)

The combination of two identical cells, whether connected in series or parallel combination provides the same current through an external resistance of \(2~\Omega\). The value of the internal resistance of each cell is:
1. \(2~\Omega\)
2. \(4~\Omega\)
3. \(6~\Omega\)
4. \(8~\Omega\)

The figure shows a circuit with two cells connected in opposition. One cell has an EMF of \(6~\text{V}\) and an internal resistance of \({2}~\Omega,\) while the other cell has an EMF of \(4~\text{V}\) and an internal resistance of \({8}~\Omega.\) The potential difference across the terminals \(X\) and \(Y\) is:
1. \(5.4\) V 2. \(5.6\) V
3. \(5.8\) V 4. \(6.0\) V
