well .. internal energy is the sum of the random KE and PE of all particles of a substance
KE depends on the temperature and PE depends on molecular sepration
So when temp increase ... KE increase so Internal energy increase and vice versa and same goes to the PE ... more te molecular sepration more PE more internal energy
So we can say that when a solid turns into a liquid .. The internal energy increases cuz there is an increase in the temp as well as the molecular separation. Right?

now use the cosine rule. angle is 90+45. scale drawing will not give accurate result because the velocity of wind gives 1.8cm only if i took 1 cm = 20 m/s

But the question didn't ask for drawing such diagrams ! I did this way and got the answer ! but I'm not sure did this answer 1 e (i) or not ! please someone correct me If I'm wrong !

question number 4 (b) (iv)
current = 0.24 A
(a) p.d = IR = 0.24*5.5=1.32V
(b) terminal p.d = emf - lost volts = 4.4 V - (0.24 A * 2.3 ohm) = 0.552 V
(c) terminal p.d = emf - lost volts = 2.1 V - (1.8 ohm * 0.24 A) = 1.67 V
can u plz explain

why do they add the emf and the lost volts to find the terminal pd of cell B the answer is 2.1+(1.8*0.24)=2.53
