Question

Questions 1-4 are based on the SLI battery (one battery module) in a car with specifications:

Open Circuit Voltage (OCV): 12 V

Resistance: 0.01 ohm
Discharge Capacity: 50 Ah

You are building an electric go-cart battery pack using 4 of these battery modules connected in series.


1. What is this battery pack open circuit voltage?

 

2. What is this battery pack capacity?

 

3. What is this battery pack energy?

 

4. Now connecting this battery pack with a traction motor, what is the battery pack voltage if the motor draws 200 A?

Hint: Need to consider the battery internal resistances (in series connection) because now there is a load (not OCV).
