10.27: The circuit shown contains a batterfk+ ht lzts,:/y (of emf $V_bat$) with an internal resistance r connected to a rheostat (variable resistor). When the resistance of the rheostat is increased, which of the following statements is true?

  12.39: For the circuit shown, all tae(fe :(2 k. f(32 u bkvwtv/w*mz,vnn(eho swires have no resistance, the battery has a constant n*ae zek(wev/vkt(2bnhfm vwo. ( u(t,s:32f internal resistance of $r = 8.0Ω$ and the two lightbulbs (#1 and #2) are identical, each with resistance R bulb. The variable resistor is initially setto $R = 26.0Ω$ . The switch in the circuit now is closed. To what resistance must the variable resistor be set if bulb #1 is to have the same brightness after the switch is closed as it did with the switch open?
