When two identical batteries of internal resistance $1 \Omega$ each are connected in series across a resistor $R$,the rate of heat produced in $R$ is $P_1$. When the same batteries are connected in parallel across $R$,the rate of heat produced is $P_2$. If $P_1 = 2.25 P_2$,then the value of $R$ is (in $Omega$)

When two identical cells are connected either in series or in parallel across a $2 \ \Omega$ resistor,they send the same current through it. The internal resistance of each cell is: (in $Omega$)

Two cells are connected between points $A$ and $B$ as shown. Cell $1$ has an emf of $12 \, V$ and an internal resistance of $3 \, \Omega$. Cell $2$ has an emf of $6 \, V$ and an internal resistance of $6 \, \Omega$. An external resistor $R$ of $4 \, \Omega$ is connected across $A$ and $B$. The current flowing through $R$ will be $............. \, A$.
