The unit of load is not given therefore the load should actually be considered to be 300w in place of 300ohm.

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

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.
= 0.02A.
Ah = 40.
H = 40/A.
= 40/0.02.
= 2000.

Energy E = V * Q = V * IT = 6 * 40 = 240WH.
POWER P=VI=Vsqr /R =.12W,
E = P * T,
T = E/P = 2k.

Yes, you are Correct @Sabir.

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.

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.

V=I x R.
6V=I x 300ohms.
I=6V / 300ohms.
I=0.02Amps.

40Amps-hour / 0.02Amps = 2000 hours.
2000 Hours Answer.

Current through load I=V/R.
I=6/300=0.02 then,
Rating=40AH,
40=0.02H.
So, Duration H=2000.
