CSU Physics Calculating Charge for The Capacity of a Battery Question

Overview

I'm working on a physics project and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.

Question: How many electrons could a fully charged 12-volt car battery release before it was completely discharged? (a number)

going to put it in actual equation form later

1.6 x 10 -19 C charge is in 1 electron so 

1/1.6 x 10^ -19 = 1.6 x 10 ^ 18 

Items we have to include:

Assumptions used and why.

12 Volt battery 

Equations needed to determine variables necessary for developing the solution and why the equations were necessary.

Ohms law is needed to calculate the…

V = IR —> V = (Q/t) * R 

V = voltage

I = current 

R = resistance 

t = time

  • Description of how you developed the values for variables.
  • Description of your level of confidence in the variable values.
  • Overall level of confidence in the solution and why?
