Problem

In a single-loop circuit, an ideal 6.0 V battery is connected in series and opposite orientation to a non-ideal 12 V battery that has an internal resistance r. A 4.0 Ω external resistor completes the loop. When the circuit is closed, a current of 1.0 A flows from the positive terminal of the 12 V battery toward the positive terminal of the 6 V battery. What is the value of the internal resistance r of the 12 V battery? a) 4 Ω4\,\Omega b) 6 Ω6\,\Omega c) 2 Ω2\,\Omega d) 8 Ω8\,\Omega
