Battery
The measured value of the current is I = 3.1 ± 0.2 A and that of the voltage is V = 14 0.5 V. The resistance of
the circuit (in N) can be calculated using the formula, R = V/I,
Calculate the,
a) Resistance (in 2) =

6.000, R₂ = 18.00, and the ideal battery has emf
12.0V. What are the (a) size and (b) direction (left or right) of
current i₁? (c) How much energy is dissipated by all four resistors in 1.00
min?
A battery provides a voltage of 10.0 V and has unknown
internal resistance Rnt. When the battery is connected
across a resistor of resistance R = 9.00 2, the current in
the circuit is I = 1.00 A. (Figure 1)
