A 6 volt battery having an internal resistance of 0.2 (ohms) is supplying current to a 5 (ohms) electrics bell

0 ⤊

What is the total resistance of the circuit?

and

What current flows through the bell ?

Total R = 0.2 +5 = 5.2
I = V/R = 6/5.2 = 1.154 A

that battery won't last long.

Resistance is 5 + .2 = 5.2 Ohms

Current is voltage/resistance = 6/5.2 = 1.15 amps
