A cell of unknown emf ε and internal resistance r, two unknown resistances R1 and R2R2>R1 and a perfect ammeter are given. The current in the circuit is measured in five different situations:

Without any external resistance in the circuit

The current obtained in the five cases are :

0.42 A, 0.6 A, 1.05 A, 1.4 A, and 4.2 A

but not necessarily in that order. Identify the currents in the five cases listed above and calculate E, r, R1 and R2.
