An automotive battery is rated at 120 A-h. This means that under certain test conditions it can output 1 A at 12 V for 120 h (under other test conditions, the battery may have other ratings).
a. How much total energy is stored in the battery?
b. 1f the headlights are left on overnight (8 h), how much energy will still be stored in the battery in the morning? (Assume a 150-W total power rating for both headlights together.)
