a battery is short-circuited when both the terminals (positive and negative) of the battery are at the same potential

when battery is short circuited, its internal resistance is zero. hence v=E

rate me if you find this useful

Rather it is like this
When the resistance across the battery is zero, we say that the battery is short-circuited. Maximum current flows when the battery is short-circuited.
Alternatively, if no current is drawn from the supply, the output voltage V and the EMF E of the battery are equal.
We can again show this idea mathematically by using the equation as below:
E = V + Ir

If no current is drawn from the supply I = 0 so Ir = 0

Therefore E = V

The EMF of the supply is equal to the output p.d. when no current is being supplied.



The Scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, & he delights in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, life would not be worth living. Ofcourse I do not here speak of that beauty that strikes the senses, the beauty of qualities & appearances; not that I undervalue such beauty, far from it, but it has nothing to do with science; I mean that profounder beauty which comes from the harmoniuos order of the parts, & which a pure intelligence can grasp.
