Yes it will burn the motor in less than a minute. Use a 12 V battery to run a 12 V motor.
Not exactly true. I rebuilt many engines and often to get them turned over I would use two batteries hooked up for 24 volts. The ignition was wired for 12 volts. When an engine is personally rebuilt it can be very hard to turn over. Once it runs a bit, I revert back to 12 volts. As long as you don't run the motors too long (meaning 4-6 revolutions) or to the point where they get hot, they should be fine. Electronics is another matter. Starter motors are often built with heavy wiring and can take the heat.

Can a 12 volt battery safely run a 9 volt motor?
Running a 9 volt Motor on a 12 volt BatteryUsually, I have gotten away with this, BUT... depending on the quality of the windings in the motor, it could burn through the tiny wire in the motor winding. I have done this many times with no problem, but have also burned out a few motors.One good example is that I have several [from the "early" days] cordless drills. The early ones used anywhere from 6 to 9 volt battery packs.I then bought a 12 volt drill at Harbor Freight and Tools, and when I got it home and examined it I realized that the 12 volt battery pack was IDENTICAL in size to the older 6 and 9 volt packs.So, after charging the new 12 volt pack, I tried it in the older 6 and 9 volt drills. Lo and behold, it worked fine, with just a little more RPM and drilling power.I then called my Electrical Engineer brother and asked him about it and he said that those small drill motors are not that sensitive to even a doubling of voltage and perform OK with 12 volts on 6 and 9 volt units.That was about 4 or 5 years ago, and for some time, I've been using 12 volt battery packs for all three units [6, 9, and 12 volts]. When time came to replace failed 6 and 9 volt units, I switched to 12 volt packs for all 3 drills.Again, I think 12 volts will be safe for your 9 volt motor, but it depends on the motor.
Does a 9 volt battery have more power than a 6 volt battery?
Power or energy cannot be measured in volts. The only thing you can say is one - the 9 volt battery - has a higher voltage than the other, the 6 volt battery. If you are asking about the power or energy contained in a battery, then the amount iof energy it can supply depends mostly on its physical size that is determined by the battery "type".
Can use 14.4 volt charger to charge 18 volt battery?
Charger Output Voltage versus Battery VoltageNO, the output voltage of a charger must be greater than the rated voltage of the battery, usually at least one and a half to two volts difference.
Why does a battery not work even though it has a volt reading?
A battery may have a small voltage potential but not the "CAPACITY" to deliver amperage. For instance if you were to measure the voltage at the battery terminals with a Volt/Ohm meter (VOM), you would get a reading of say 12+ volts. As soon as you turn something on such as a headlight or heater motor, the voltage drops down or goes to 0 volts, you would have a battery that is bad or under capacity. It also could be caused by a "BAD CONNECTION" such as a loose battery post clamp. It is critical that when you test a battery, you test it at the battery posts themselves without the cables attached to rule out a bad connection. This is done with a battery load tester. As many people do not have the equipment to test a battery, batteries can be tested at many automotive parts retail outlets across the country for a free charge.
How much energy is given to each coulomb of charge that flows through a 1.5 volt battery?
1.5 volts means 1.5 joules/coloumb.
How many volts total is a 24 volt battery and 12 volt battery in parallel?
24 volts (although you'll ruin the 12v battery this way). If you're trying to get 36 volts, you want to wire them in series.
What is a 3 volt battery?
A 3 volt battery is a battery that produces 3 volts. Many watch batteries produce 3 volts.
Can you charge a 5 volt battery with a car charger?
No, an automobile battery charger outputs 12 Volts. This is far too many volts to charge a 5 Volt battery. You would destroy the 5 Volt battery with this charger.
Can you charge an 8.4 volt battery on a 7.2 volt battery?
No. It requires more that 8.4 volts to charge a 8.4 volt battery. If the 8.4 volt battery is discharged to less than 7.2 volts then it might charge up to 7.2 volts but no higher. Once the voltages are the same then current stops flowing and charging stops.
What is the difference between a 9 volt battery riding car and a 12 volt battery car?
One is 9 volts and the other is 12 volts. They do not interchange!
What is the unit of measure that expresses potential difference between the two electrodes in a battery?
Volt
How many volt does an AAA battery have?
1.5 volts
Why would a 12 volt car battery give off 22 volts?
it won't. The most you will see from a stationary battery with the engine not running is 12.6 volts. If you are seeing 22 volts with the engine running then the voltage regulator is defective and it will ruin the battery. Most modern alternators have the voltage regulator built into the alternator. Replace the alternator.
Can you use an 18 volt charger to charge a 14.4 volt battery?
Yes, a standard battery charger produces 13.8 volts when it is charging a battery. If you are thinking of using a charger that you plug into the wall that is used for electronic equipment, don't. The battery usually wants more amperage that they can produce and the device usually will burn out.
What power is a 380 amp car battery in volts?
It will be a 12 volt battery.
Why not put a 12 volt motor to replace the 120 volt motor in your freezer Will this work?
The voltage of 120 volts is more common that the lower voltage of 12 volts.
Can a 110 volt motor run on 240 volts without damage?
No, unless the motor was wound for dual voltage operation, which it will state on the motor nameplate, a 110 volt motor run on 240 volts will be damaged.
