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.


What is a group of dry cells connected together with their positive poles pointing to the same direction?

"series" ... high voltage


Three cells have voltage of 15V 18V and 20 V What is the total voltage of the cells when they are connected in parallel?

Sources with different voltages should never be connected in parallel, you would have a difference of potential. Any time you have a difference of potential connected together you will have sparks, which could cause the batteries to explode.

A battery containing five 2 V cells connected in series has a total voltage of?

10v In series, just add them together.


What is the total voltage of a battery containing five 2 V cells connected in series?

Total voltage output of 5 2v cells connected in series would be 10v


A battery containing five 2V cells connected in series has a total voltage of?

10 volts. The formula to work that out is: quantity of cells*voltage of cells


What happened to the voltage in the circuit as more dry cells were connected in the series?

The voltage increases in this case.


A 12V car battery has six cells connected end-to-end What is the voltage of a single cell?

Battery voltage / number of cells = cell voltage 12/6 = 2 volts cell voltage


When two cells with the same voltage are connected in a series circuit what happens to the voltage?

There is addition of voltage. Dry cells have 1.5 volts irrespective of there size. if the cells are added as same polarity in series it will add if are parallel then voltage remains same


What is the voltage of a battery of three cells if one is connected the wrong way round?

Voltage would be that of 1 cell.


Three electric cells each have a voltage of 1.3Vwhat is the total voltage of the three cells if the cells are connected in parallel?

voltage is still 1.3V in parallel circuit, voltage stays the same but current adds up in series circuit, voltage adds up but current stays the same
