Revisiting our first example of Module 7, we are given a battery with an EMF of 12[V]
connected to a load resistance of 3[]. Initially, when the battery was new, the internal
resistance was 0.05[]; however, as a battery ages, its internal resistance increases. Suppose the
internal resistance of the battery increased to 1[],
a) What is the new current for the aged battery?
b) How much power does the load resistor receive?
c) How much power does the internal resistor take?
d) How much power does the battery supply in total?
e) By how much did the power supplied by the battery change with age? Specify whether it
increased or decreased
