How Do You Calculate The Resistance In A Circuit In Which A 9-Volt Battery Produces 3 Amperes?

The resistance would be 9V / 3A = 3ohms. If this is a hypothetical ideal battery with no internal resistance, then the 3ohms would be the resistance of the external circuit, but if it is a real battery part, or maybe all of that resistance will be inside the battery itself, for example it is unlikely that the common small rectangular 9V could deliver 3A to even a 0ohm short circuit because of the internal resitance.
