What is the value of the constant current supplied?
What fraction of the input power is supplied to the battery?
What current would flow into the battery if we now replaced the ammeter with a wire of zero impedance?
A battery is modelled as a 24V EMF in series with an internal resistance of $2\Omega$. The battery is being charged by a constant current source as shown in the network below. The ammeter, used to measure the current through the battery, has a voltage drop of 2V at full range scales. Here it is set to a 20A range and reads a current of 2A.
