When a $9-\mathrm{V}$ battery is temporarily short-circuited, a $200-\mathrm{mA}$ current flows. What's the battery's internal resistance?
(II) A $12-\mathrm{V}$ battery causes a current of 0.60 $\mathrm{A}$ through a resistor. (a) What is its resistance, and (b) how many joules of energy does the battery lose in a minute?
