Abstract
According to one embodiment, a battery includes: a first wire; a second wire; a third wire; a first resistor; a first switch; a second switch; a second resistor; a voltage measurer; and a controller that calculates a second resistance value of the third wire using a first voltage of a first battery when the first switch is turned on and the second switch is turned off, a second voltage of a second battery when the first switch is turned on and the second switch is turned off, a third voltage of the second battery when the first switch is turned off and the second switch is turned off, and a first resistance value of the first resistor.
