a) Assume that on a sunny summer day, the solar panel delivers its rated (midday) current for the equivalent of 6 hours. If you assume the 200 Ah deep cycle battery begins the day of solar charging (0 hours) at 30% capacity (i.e. with 60 Ah of stored charge), how many Amp-hours are stored in the battery at the end of the first day of charging (i.e. after 6 hours)? b)Overnight, the solar panel produces zero current, but its shunt resistance remains connected. Calculate the stored charge in the battery at the beginning of the next day of charging (i.e. after 24 hours). Perform calculations and use circuit simulation software (supported by screenshots) to verify your design.
