Chapter 28, Problem 28.59AP
A rechargeable battery has an emf of 13.2 V and an internal resistance of 0.850 Ω. It is charged by a 14.7-V power supply for a time interval of 1.80 h. Alter charging, the battery returns to its original state as it delivers a constant current to a load resistor over 7.30 h. Find the efficiency of the battery as an energy storage device. (The efficiency here is defined as the energy delivered to the load during discharge divided by the energy delivered by the 14.7-V power supply during the charging process.)

The starter in your car is a device of fixed resistance that is designed to operate at a power of 847 W when connected to a fresh 12.0 V car battery, but is able to function at a power as low as 612 W when the battery is weaker. Your car battery is several years old, and one morning you are unable to start the vehicle. You check the battery's voltage, and find a value of 10.6 V when the ignition is in the off position. You have a friend try to start the vehicle, and as the engine turns over, the voltage of the battery drops to 7.83 V. What is the internal resistance of the battery?
