No. One amp is one amp. It does not matter how long you supply that current. You could say that one amp for 100 hours is 360,000 coulombs, but that is not a useful piece of information.
Now, if you want to talk about energy, that is a different story, but you need to talk about watts, not amps.
One amp is one coulomb per second.
One volt is one joule per coulomb.
One watt is one joule per second, which is why watts is amps times volts.
One watt for 100 hours is 100 watt-hours, or 360,000 joules. Joules is energy. That is useful information.

What is the 10 hour rating of a battery?
It is the discharge rate of the battery rated in ampere hours. Yours could be any combination from 10 amps for 1 hour up to 1 amp for 10 hours. eg. 5 amps for 2 hours, 2.5 amps for 4 hours.
How do you convert micro amps to amps?
To convert microamps to amps, you need to divide the value in microamps by 1,000,000. This is because one microamp is equal to one millionth of an amp. So, if you have a current of 500 μA (microamps), you would divide 500 by 1,000,000 to get 0.0005 amps.
How many kilowatts does it take to run 100 amp home?
A three wire home distribution service rated at 100 amps has a wattage capacity of;From L1 to L2 at 240 volts x 100 amps = 24000 watts or 24 kilowatts. From L1 to neutral at 120 volts x 100 amps = 12000 watts or 12 kilowatts. From L2 to neutral at 120 volts x 100 amps = 12000 watts or 12 kilowatts.
How do you work out ampere hour?
An ampere-hour is one ampere for one hour.A ampere is one coulomb per second, so an ampere-hour is a transfer of charge of 3600 coulombs.See the discussion page.
Can I use a 12v 18 amp battery and connect to a circuit that asks for 12v Static current 6mA Can I use resistors to lower the amps on the 12v 18amp battery or can I just connect it up?
Just connect the circuit. It will only draw the amps it needs to operate. It is just like connecting a 100 watt light bulb that draws way less than 1 amp, to a 20 amp household circuit.
