Equation of cell -

E=V+iR

- wherein

(E>V)

 

 V=E-Ir----------(1)

compare with straight line equation y=mx+c

Slope =-r, Intercept =E


Option 1)

-r and E

This is correct option 

Option 2)

r and - E

This is incorrect option 

Option 3)

- E and r

This is incorrect option 

Option 4)

E and -r

This is incorrect option
