A car battery dies not so much because its voltage drops, but because chemical reactions increase its internal resistance. A good car battery typically has a terminal voltage of about 12.5 V and an internal resistance of about 0.020 Ω. When the battery dies its voltage can drop slightly, let's say it drops to about 10.1 V and the internal resistance increases to around 0.100 Ω.
Required:
a. How much current could the good battery alone drive through the starter motor?
b. How much current is the dead battery alone able to drive through the starter motor?
