Two identical 10 V batteries are placed in two different circuits seen below. In the circuit drawn on the right there is a resistor with an unknown resistance. What should the resistance of this unknown resistor be to ensure that the total current leaving the battery in both circuits is the same? 10 V O 4 Ohm 2 Ohm 01 Ohm R = 2 Ohm 10 V EST R = 1 Ohm> SR=? O It is impossible to find any resistance which would allow the total current to be equal in both circuits.
