Efficiency of the ICE: 25% Energy Conversion: One gallon of gasoline at 100% efficiency is equal to 33.5 kWh/gallon). a)Calculate the EV consumption rate as Wh/km and find the total energy of the battery pack in KWh to replace the internal combustion engine. b)Design an 8-module battery pack for this full electric vehicle without compromising its range and performance (power). Use commercially available cylindrical cells lithium cell with 20Ah capacity and 3.125 V average voltage. Cell dimensions are 5cm diameter and 10 cm height.
