Batteries are rated by their voltage, but also by the energy that they can provide. A typical D-cell battery has a voltage of 1.5 V, and is also rated at 15,000 mA•h—a product of current and time.
a. How much charge can flow from the battery before is discharged?
b. For how long could this battery power a 1.5 W flashlight bulb?

4. A flashlight uses two D cell 1.5 V batteries connected in serles to provide 3 volts cross ue ig bulb. The bulb draws 380 mA when turned on a. Calculate the resistance of the bulb b. Calculate the power dissipated c. If this flashlight was plugged into a wall (rather than using batteries) and we could keep the voltage and power the same. How much money would it cost to run the flashlight for one month (30 days) for...
Laptop batteries are rated in W⋅h, the product of the power (in W) that the battery can provide and the time (in h) that it can provide this power. For instance, a 50 W⋅h battery can provide 50 W for 1.0 h, 25 W for 2.0 h, and so on. A 10.8 V laptop battery is rated at 76 W⋅h. What is the total charge the battery can provide to the laptop before the battery is depleted?
A pair of alkaline D batteries can provide about 80000 J of electric energy at 3.0 V. If a current of 0.5 A flows through two D batteries while they’re in the circuit of a flashlight, how long will the batteries be able to provide power to the flashlight? (answer must be in hours)
Car batteries are often rated in amp-hours. This rating indicates the quantity of charge that can pass through the battery before the battery's chemical energy must be restored by the car's generator or some other source. The amp-hour unit is convenient for simple calculations. For example, a 60-amp-hour battery can supply a current of 1.0 A for 60 h (or 60 A for 1.0 h) before going dead. Find the energy stored in the following. (a) a 54 A-h, 14...

The total charge a battery can supply is rated in mA·h, the product of the current and the time that the battery can provide this current. A battery rated at 1000 mA·h can supple a current of 1000 mA for 1.0 h, 500 mA for 2.0 h, and so on. (a) A typical AA rechargeable battery has a voltage of 1.2V and a rating of 1800 mA·h. For how long could this battery drive current through a long, thin wire...
Electrochemistry of Voltaic Cells: Batteries are voltaic cells. A typical AA battery is labeled as providing an electrical potential of 1.5 V. After a long period of time, a battery in use may no longer provide enough electrical power to the device. Suppose you have checked an old battery with a voltage probe and measured a potential of 0.9 V. What chemical change could be responsible for this change in voltage (and power)? Write one or two complete sentences to...
