The question as text

A student investigates the current in a circuit containing a cell, as shown in Fig. 2.1. A R1 P r E R2 Q Fig. 2.1 The student connects two resistors of resistances R1 and R2 between P and Q. The ammeter measures the current I. The student repeats the experiment with different resistors between P and Q. It is suggested that I, R1 and R2 are related by the equation E = I(R1 + R2 + r) where E is the electromotive force (e.m.f.) and r is the internal resistance of the cell. 1
