Homework Statement


A battery charger is connected to a dead battery and delivers a current of 6.0A for 5.0 hours,keeping the voltage across the battery terminals at 12V in the process.how much energy is delivered to the battery?


Homework Equations


R=I^2RT



The Attempt at a Solution


the answer is 1.3x10^6 Joules but I am not getting that.can someone help me please?

Power = Voltage x Current
Energy = Power x Time.

Joules of energy is expressed in amp-volt-seconds.

How many seconds in an hour?
