In Fig. 27-38, two batteries with an emf epsi= 12.0 V and an internal resistance r=0.500 Omega are connected in parallel across a resistance R. (a) For what value of R is the dissipation rate in the resistor a maximum? (b) What is that maximum? and (c) what is the total dissipation rate in the batteries? In terms of r, what are (d) the effective R (internal) resistance of the two-battery system and (e) the resistance R that is required to maximize the dissipation rate? This is a general result.
