A battery has an internal resistance Rint. Connecting a wire of negligible resistance between the terminals of the battery draws the maximum current Imax from this battery. If instead a resistor is connected between the terminals, a smaller current is produced. What value resistor placed across the terminals would result in the current produced to be half of Imax?
a. 0.63Rint b. Rint
c. 0.50Rint d. 0.37Rint
