An automotive battery is rated at 120 A-h. Thismeans that under certain test conditions it can output1 A at 12 V for 120 h (under other test conditions, thebattery may have other ratings).a. How much total energy is stored in the battery?b. If the headlights are left on overnight (8 h), howmuch energy will still be stored in the battery in themorning? (Assume a 150-W total power rating forboth headlights together.)

You’re working on a new high-speed rail system. It uses 6000-horsepower electric locomotives, getting power from a sin-gle overhead wire with resistance 15 mΩ/km, at 25 kV potential relative to the track. Current returns through the track, whose resistance is negligible. Energy-efficiency standards call for no more than 3% power loss in the wire. How far from the power plant can the train go and still meet this standard?
