(a) In Example 31.12, how would the answer change if we had chosen a counterclockwise travel direction around the circuit?

(b) At what rate is energy dissipated in the \(9-\mathrm{V}\) battery?

Data from Example 31.12

A \(9.0-\mathrm{V}\) and a \(6.0-\mathrm{V}\) battery are connected to each other (Figure 31.47). Each battery has an internal resistance of \(0.25 \Omega\). At what rate is energy dissipated in the \(6.0-\mathrm{V}\) battery?
