Explain the difference between load resistance in a circuit and internal resistance in a battery.

Explain the difference between load resistance in a circuit and internal resistance in a battery.

---

The internal resistance, r of a source emf, e.g. a battery is the electrical resistance of the
conducting materials of the battery. The load resistance, R is any external resistance connected to
the source of emf.
