Introduction to D.C. Circuits

Our problem is to determine:
     1) The max. permissible cable resistance required for the load to still function normally
     2) The max distance the battery and load can be separated if we use AWG #30 cable
     3) The distribution efficiency
     4) The approximate time before the battery discharges
