The battery on your car has a rating stated in ampere minute which permit you to estimate the length of time a fully charged battery could deliver any particular current before discharge. Approximately how much energy is stored by a 50 ampere minute 12 volt battery

Thus, the energy stored by a 50 Ampere minute battery is found to be 36 KJ.

Explanation:

The power delivered by a battery is given by the formula:

P = VI

where,

P = Power Delivered by battery in 1 second

V = Voltage of battery = 12 volt

I = Current stored in battery

But, if we multiply both sides of equation by time (t), then:

Pt = VIt

where,

Pt = Power x Time = E = Energy Stored = ?

It = Rating of Battery = (50 A. min) (60 sec/min) = 3000 A. sec

Therefore,

E = (12 volt) (3000 A. sec)

E = 36000 J = 36 KJ

Thus, the energy stored by a 50 Ampere minute battery is found to be 36 KJ.
