What quantity is measured by a battery rating given in ampere-hours (A·h)?
The quantity measured by a battery rating in
Answer to Problem 1Q
The battery rating in
Explanation of Solution
An ampere hour is the amount of charge available in a battery that will allow one ampere of current to flow for one hour. An ampere is a unit of measure of the rate of electron flow in an electrical conductor.
Since ampere hour is a unit of charge.
Conclusion:
The amount of charge in a battery is,
Therefore, the battery rating in
