Electric vehicles (EV) are typically more efficient than gasoline driven vehicles. With Li-ion batteries, the energy required by km, ranges from 0.38 MJ/km to 1.4 MJ/km, depending on the make of EV. A value of 0.7 MJ/km is typically used in approximate calculations. (i) (ii) Calculate the mass of Li-ion batteries needed to power a EV with a range of 600km. Calculate the corresponding maximum power available from this battery pack.
