In a circuit, a 12 V ideal battery has an internal resistance of 0.5 Ω. Two external resistors, \(R_{1}=4\ \Omega\) and an unknown resistor \(R_{2}\), are connected in parallel. Their equivalent resistance is in series with another unknown resistor \(R_{3}\). The total current supplied by the battery is 2 A, and the power dissipated in \(R_{3}\) is twice the power dissipated in \(R_{1}\). Determine the resistance of \(R_{3}\) (in ohms, correct to two decimal places).
