The current `I` through a rod of a certain metallic oxide is given by `I=0.2 V^(5//2)`, where `V` is the potential difference across it. The rod is connected in series with a resistance to a `6V` battery of negligible internal resistance. What value should the series resistance have so that:
(i) the current in the circuit is `0.44`
(ii) the power dissipated in the rod is twice that dissipated in the resistance.
