A battery of emf 10 V and internal resistance 3 O is connected to a resistor. If the current in the circuit is 0.5 A, what is the resistance of the resistor? What is the terminal voltage of the battery when the circuit is closed

emf of battery=10v
r, internal rssitance of battery=3 ohmscurrent in th circuit,I=0.5A
Resistanc of the rsistor=R
Ohm's law
I=E/(R+r)
So, R=17 ohms
Terminal voltage of the reesistor=V
Ohm's law states that
V=IxR
So, V= 8.5V
