If in the previous problem the battery is being charged with a current of 5 amp, in what direction will current flow inside the battery, and what will be the reading of the voltmeter

In the circuit given in the figure, both batteries are ideal . Emf E_1 of battery 1 has a fixed value, but emf E_2 of battery 2 can be varied between 1.0V and 10.0 V . The graph gives the currents through the two batteries as a function of E_2 but are not marked as which plot corresponds to which battery. But for both plots, current is assumed to be negative when the direction of the current through the battery is opposite to the direction of that battery's emf (direction of emf is from negative to positive.) The value of emf E_1 is
