Problem

A battery of emf EE and internal resistance rr is connected to a rheostat. When a current of 2A2A is drawn from the battery, the potential difference across the rheostat is 5V5V. The potential difference becomes 4V4V when a current of 4A4A is drawn from the battery. Calculate the value of EE and rr.
