F. would therefore be that of twocells, viz., four volts, and the internal resistance that of oneohm divided by five + one ohm divided by five. Thus: E ^ 4 volts 4 o o = C. —^ =^ . r— = -T^ = 88 amperes. R-hr ■ 0-05-I-0*2+ 0*2 ohms 0-45 Six cells so connected are shown in Fig. 34. A battery of a given number of cells will send the strongestcurrent through a given external resistance when the cellsare connected (in series or in parallel, or partly in series Current-vStrength n and partly in parallel), so that the resistance of the batteryequals as nearly as possible the external resistance. (Thisbas been proved by differential calculus.) Thus, for gal-vanization small cells with a great internal resistance givealmost as strong a current as large cells with a low internalresistance ; while in cautery work, where the external

High internal resistance is never anadvantage, though when the external resistance is alsohigh it may not be a material disadvantage.
