10.1 Exercise 10

A 12.0-V emf automobile battery has a terminal voltage of 16.0 V when being charged by a current of 10.0 A. (a) What is the battery’s internal resistance? (b) What power is dissipated inside the battery? (c) At what rate (in $° \text{C} / \text{min}$) will its temperature increase if its mass is 20.0 kg and it has a specific heat of $0.300 \text{kcal}/\text{kg} \cdot ° \text{C}$, assuming no heat escapes?
