Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.30P

The electronics aboard a certain sailboat consume 50 W when operated from a 12.6-V source. If a certain fully charged deep-cycle lead acid storage battery is rated for 12.6 V and 100 ampere hours, for how many hours can the electronics be operated from the battery without recharging? (The ampere-hour rating of the battery is the operating time to discharge the battery multiplied by the current) How much energy in kilowatt hours is initially stored in the battery? If the battery casts $75 and has a life of 300 charge-discharge cycles, what is the cost of the energy in dollars per kilowatt hour? Neglect the cost of recharging the battery.

The resistance of a coil aluminum wire at 21OC is 210Ω. The temperature of the wire is increased and the resistance rises to 240Ω. If the coefficient of resistance of aluminum is 0 .0039/OC at 21OC, determine the temperature to which the coil has risen.
The capacity of a car battery is usually specified in ampere-hours. A battery rated at, say, 100 A-h should be able to supply 100 A for 1 h, 50 A for 2 h, 25 A for 4 h, 1 A for 100 h, or any other combination yielding a product of 100 A-h.a.

    You are comparing an old incandescent light bulb with a newer high efficiency LED light bulb. You find that they both have the same output of 800 lumens, which corresponds to approximately 5 W of optical power. However, you find that the incandescent bulb is consuming 60 W of electrical power, and the LED bulb is consuming 12 W of electrical power. A. Why do the optical and electrical powers not agree? B. Doesn’t conservation of energy require the two quantities to be equal?
    A typical AA battery has a potential difference of 1.5 V and stores 10,000 J of chemical energy. An electric fan powered by two AA batteries in series can be treated as a single resistor with resistance 15.0 Ω connected to the batteries. Assume the potential difference provided by the batteries remains constant until they completely run out of energy. In a neat and organized fashion, write out a solution which includes the following: A sketch of the physical situation with all given physical quantities clearly labeled. If the description above consists of an initial and final state, both of these states should be represented in your sketch. Draw a circuit diagram and energy bar chart for the system consisting of the batteries and the fan to represent this process. If this fan is run continuously, how long will it take for the batteries to run out of energy? Clearly show all steps, starting from generalized equations. Explain your mathematical work in words. Your explanation should…
