In Figure (a), both batteries have emf ε = 1.30 V and the external resistance R is a variable resistor. Figure (b) gives the electric potentials V between the terminals of each battery as functions of R: Curve 1 corresponds to battery 1, and curve 2 corresponds to battery 2. The horizontal scale is set by Rs = 0.300 Ω. What is the internal resistance of (a) battery 1 and (b) battery 2?
The voltage across the terminals of a battery is its EMF minus the potential due to the internal resistance. Because the internal resistance reduces the voltage.
Thus we model a real battery as an ideal voltage source in series with its internal resistance. Lets call the internal resistance of EMF εi = ri
Then, applying the kirchoff’s law in this loop we get
The terms in parenthesis are the voltages of the batteries. (which we can also see plotted in the graph as a function of R.
Lets use the point where R = ½ Rs = 0.150 Ω. I read from the graph that V1 = 0.52V
Because 5 divisions = 0.65
⇒ 1 division = 0.65/5 = 0.13
⇒ 4 divisions = 0.13 x 4 = 0.52
and V2 = 0V. Now we can write down the loop equation using these values:
Therefore, current at that moment can be calculated as:
From this we can calculate the internal resistances:

A real battery is not just an emf. We can model a real 1.5 V battery as a 1.5 V emf in series with a resistor known as the "internal resistance", as shown in the figure(Figure 1) . A typical battery has 1.0 Ω internal resistance due to imperfections that limit current through the battery. When there's no current through the battery, and thus no voltage drop across the internal resistance, the potential difference between its terminals is 1.5 V,...
