a cell of emf E nd internal resistance R is connected to 2 external resistances R1 n R2 nd a perfect ammeter ..the current in the circuit is measured in 4 difffernt conditions ..
1) without any external resistance
2) with R1 only
3) with R1 n R2 in series
4) with R1 n R2 in parallel
the current measuere in 4 cases are 0.4 A ,1.05A , 1.4 A nd 4.2
IDENTIFY THE CURRENT CORRESPONDING TO THE 4 CASES MENTIONED ABOVE

Expert Answer
Please note that your question is not very clear. You are first asking to calculate the current in the 4 cases and then, you have yourself given the values of current in 4 cases.
You can find below how to find current in four cases.
Using Ohms law V = IR for all the cases. In this case V = E
1. In the absence of external resistor: I = E/R
2. With R1 only, then the equivalent resistance in circuit Req = R+R1
Hence current I = E/(R+R1)
3. with R1 and R2 in series, then the equivalent resistance in circuit Req = R+ R1+R2
Hence current I = E/(R+R1+R2)
4. With R1 and R2 in parallel. Hence their equivalent resistance R' will be given by
1/R' = 1/R1+1/R2
R' = R1R2/(R1+R2)
Now this is connected in series with internal resistance of cell, hence R eq = R' + R = R+R1R2/(R1+R2)
Hence, I = E/ [R+R1R2/(R1+R2)]
