JEE Main 3 April 2025, Shift 2, Physics Q48

Question 48 of 75 in this shift, Physics question 23 of 25, Section B.

Two cells of emfs 1 V and 2 V and internal resistances 2 Ω2\ \Omega and 1 Ω1\ \Omega, respectively, are connected in series with an external resistance of 6 Ω6\ \Omega. The total current in the circuit is I1\mathrm{I_1}. Now the same two cells in parallel configuration are connected to same external resistance. In this case, the total current drawn is I2\mathrm{I_2}. The value of (I1I2)\left(\frac{\mathrm{I_1}}{\mathrm{I_2}}\right) is x3\frac{x}{3}. The value of xx is ___________.
