First get the power consumed.
V=IR I = V/R =6/300 = 0.02A.
P = IV = 0.02*6=0.12W. That's is the load power.
To find the battery power.
P=IV 6*40 = 240Wh.
Then to find the hour the load will run.
240wh/0.12w = 2000h.

Actually current taken by 300ohm load is 6/300=0.02Amp. If condition saying,battery is under 40AH then to cover 40Amps, load has to take 2000hr at a constant current of 0.02Amps.

So answer is 'C'.

The procedure is as follows:

=> ampere(A)xhour(T)=(voltage(V)/resistance(R))xhour(T)
=> 40 =(6/300) X T
=> T =(40X300)/6
=> T =2000h

Simply it can solve by this method:.

It's given : Ah=40 so, h=40/A.
TO find A=?
I=V/R, = 6/300=0. 02A. Now put in above 'h' eq.
H=40/A, = 40/0.02 = 2000 hours.

Actually load may be or may not be estimate like this as 300 ohms, why because power consumption is depend upon their capacity in fact their wattage.

Energy produce by battery = 40*6 = 240whr

Power taken by load = v*v/r = 0.12

So current supplying time = 240/.12=2000hr.

In the above problem given ah=40 and we get i from v=i*r as 0.02.

So in ah=40 amp a=0.02, So .02*h=40.

h=40/0.02=2000.

I = V/R.
= 6/300,
= 0.02.

As we know it rates 40Ah, thus,
40 = I * t.
40 = 0.02 * t,
t = 40/0.02,
t = 2000 h.
