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 $Omega$)
