AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the circuit formed by the two batteries and the external resistor. We will use Kirchhoff's laws to find the currents through each battery. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Components:** - Battery 1 (E1): Voltage = 6 V, Internal Resistance (r1) = 0.5 Ω - Battery 2 (E2): Voltage = 10 V, Internal Resistance (r2) = 1 Ω - External Resistance (R) = 12 Ω ...
