An electric car is being designed to have an average power output of 6,400 W for 2 h before needing to be recharged. (Assume there is no wasted energy.) (a) How much energy would be stored in the charged batteries? J(b) The batteries operate on 80 V. What would the current be when they are operating at 6,400 W? A(c) To be able to recharge the batteries in 1 h, how much power would have to be supplied to them? W
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
