A certain lead-acid storage battery has a mass of 30 kg. starting from a fully charged state, it can supply 5 a for 24 hours wit
h a terminal voltage of 12 v before it is totally discharged.
a. if the energy stored in the fully charged battery is used to lift the battery with 100-percent efficiency, what height is attained? assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2 and is constant with height. b if the stored energy is used to accelerate the battery with 100 percent efficiency, what velocity is attained?
c. gasoline contains about 4.5 x 107 j/kg. compare this with the energy content per unit mass for the fully charged battery.
