What is the purpose of the cell in batteries?
The cells are the individual units that provide voltage. In a battery, several of them are connected in series, to provide a higher voltage.
Can batteries of unequal voltages b connected in parallel?
no..... The battery with lower voltage will consume power from the higher one...
Do batteries that are arranged in series produce a higher voltage than batteries arranged in parallel?
Batteries in parallel maintain constant voltage across the load rather in a series, so it is better to arrange the batteries in parallel Batteries in series deliver a higher voltage, batteries in parallel have longer life use.
Why do two ideal voltage source of unequal voltage cannot be connected in parallel?
If two ideal sources of unequal voltage are connected in parallel the higher voltage will provide a majority of the current (a two percent difference in voltage would provide an additional 5% of the current) and (in the case of batteries) the larger would provide charging current, quickly draining it.
How can cells be connected together to get a higher voltage?
cells must be connected in series
What happens when a capacitor when it is connected to a higher voltage?
If you apply a higher voltage to a capacitor than it is rated it could over heat and explode.
Why would you add batteries in series?
Putting batteries in series will up the voltage of the entire circuit. Certain things need higher voltage, so you put your batteries in series. Putting batteries in parallel will not up the voltage, but will let the current last longer. Watches would be more of an example for that. You want watch batteries to last long.
Can a 0.9V 400MA solar panel be used to charge 2 AA batteries?
To charge a battery, the charger voltage must be higher than the battery voltage. If a AA battery (or any other) has a normal voltage of 1.2V the charger voltage must be at least 1.2V. The type of voltage supply and its current capability is immaterial. No, the charging voltage have to be larger than the battery voltage, to charge 2 AA batteries, that is 3 volt if connected in series, so a voltage of at least 4 volt is needed
Four 9-volt batteries are connected in parallel how much voltage is active across the circuit?
Four 9v batteries connected in a parallel will still emit 9 volts because you are not increasing the voltage, you are increasing the life. To increase the voltage of four 9v batteries, you must connect them in a series; that series will emit 9v X 4(batteries), which equals 36 volts.
What happens to a 220v stereo when connected to 110v?
Stereo can't work unless sufficient voltage , same will be connected to higher input voltage your system will be damaged.
What is the total voltage if a 12v battery 6v battery and 2.5v battery are connected in parallel?
There is no answer to this question. It could be anywhere between 2.5V and 12V. If you connected them in series the answer would be 20.5V, in parallel the higher voltage battery will discharge into the lower rated cells, the resultant voltage is dependent upon the internal resistance of each of the batteries. In practice you wouldn't do this, so it's either a mistake or trick question. www.powerinspired.co.uk
How do you equalize deep cycle batteries?
You equalize deep cycle batteries by charging with a higher than normal voltage for a short period of time. Consult the manufacturer for details.
