I need help with these two resistancecapacitator problems Pl

I need help with these two resistance/capacitator problems. Please help. I\'m terrible at this stuff.

Q1) A variable resistor, R, is connected to the terminals of a battery (dashed box in the diagram). The graph below shows data collected in the circuit as R is varied.  

A) What is V0, in volts?

B) What is the internal resistance, r, in ohms?

Q2) Which of the following statements are correct for the RC circuit shown (with brief explanation)?

After S is moved to b, it takes a time ? = RC, for the charge on C to drop to 1/e of its initial value.

After S is in the position b for a long time, the current through R becomes close to zero.

The longer S is kept in the position a, the lower is the energy stored in C.

If S is in the position a for a long time, the current through R approaches ?/R.

If S is in the position a for a long time, the charge on C approaches zero.

Right after S is moved to the position a, following a long time in the position b, the current through R is ?/R.

Right after S is moved to the position b, following a long time in the position a, the current through R is zero.

Solution

1)

I=Vo/(R+r)

to solve for Vo,

Vo=I(R+r) got two equations

Vo=0.9(r)

*since when R=0, I=0.9

Then i used another point

Vo=0.2(18+r)

so compare these two equations

r = 5.142 ohm

and

Vo = 4.63 v

2)

If S is in the position a for a long time, the current through R approaches /R.
