The total charge that an automobile battery can supply without being recharged is given in terms of ampere-hours. A typical 12-V battery has a rating of 60 ampere-hours (60 A for 1 h, 30 A for 2 h, and so on). Suppose that you forget to turn the headlights off in your parked automobile.
If each of the two headlights draws 2.1 A, how long will it be before your battery is "dead"?
total current = 2.1 + 2.1 = 4.2 A
time required = I/rating
= 4.2 / 60
= 0.07 h = 0.07*60 = 4.2 minutes
so the battery will die in 4.2 minutes

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...
A car battery is rated at 90 A*hr , meaning that it can supply a 90 A current for 1hr before being completely discharged. If you leave your headlights on until the battery is completely dead, how much charge leaves the positive terminal of the battery?
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 58 A-h, 13...

The capacity of a storage battery, such as those used in automobile electrical systems, is rated in ampere-hours (A⋅h). A 50 A⋅h battery can supply a current of 50 A for 1.0 h, or 25 A for 2.0 h, and so on. 1) What total energy can be supplied by a 12 V , 50 A⋅h battery if its internal resistance is negligible? Express your answer using two significant figures. 2) What volume (in liters) of gasoline has a total...
1) A particular 12 V car battery can send a total charge of 84 A h (ampere-hours) through a circuit, from one terminal to the other. (a) How many coulombs of charge does this represent? (Hint: current = ) (b) If this entire charge undergoes a change in electric potential of 12 V, how much energy is involved?
Batteries are rated in terms of ampere-hours (A·h). For example, a battery that can produce a current of 2.00 A for 3.00 h is rated at 6.00 A·h. (a) What is the total energy stored in a 9.0 V battery rated at 51.0 A·h? kWh (b) At $0.0630 per kilowatt-hour, what is the value of the electricity produced by this battery? NOTE: Enter your response with hundredths precision. cents.gif
Physics 2 A standard D cell battery can supply 25 mA at 1.5 V for about 300 hours, and its internal resistance is about 1 Ω. A lift is powered by a battery such that it is 50% efficient and is being used to lift a 60-kg object that is initially on the ground. When the winch is set to a very slow speed, the load resistance is much greater than the internal resistance of the battery. The greatest speed...
Question 8 (6 marks) You have been given a 555 Timer, an LED with Von-2V, a 9V battery that can comfortably supply 5mA of current without loss of voltage, a 1uF capacitor and access to any resistor values you want. Design a circuit that causes the LED to flash periodically once per second with a duty cycle of 75% Ensure that it does not draw more than 5mA of current from the battery (i.e 3mA of charging current and 2mA...
