Determine how many 1.5 V AA zinc chloride batteries will be needed to supply the voltage for a remote control. 9V and will consume 3.2 W of power.

Answer 1

Determine how many 1.5 V AA zinc chloride batteries will be needed to supply the voltage for a remote control. 9V and will consume 3.2 W of power.

Given:
Vb=1.5 [V]
P=3.2 [W]
V=9 [V]


Solution:
According Battery reference book

we need 6 battery pack only

V=6*Vb = 6*1.5=9 V 0<Ib<1.5
P=I*V -> I=P/V = 3.2/6 = 0.53 A
Answer: 6 batteries
