Wired in parallel you will have 1.5 volts just like you have 1 battery. Wired in series you will have 4.5 volts. In parellel the amperage will triple but the volts stay the same.

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.
How are circuits connected when you are using more than one battery?
The batteries can be connected in parallel or in series. In parallel, good batteries of the same voltage will have a total voltage across them equal to the voltage across one of them. Those batteries in series will have a total voltage equal to the sum of the voltage of each of the batteries.
Can you connect batteries in series and parallel?
Yes, series and parallel connection of batteries is possible. When connected in series Voltage increases. In parallel, Current increases but voltage is constant.
How many batteries needed in a series circuit?
It depends on the load and desired voltage. The voltage adds as you put batteries in series. Positive to negative, etc.
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.
What will happen if you connect 2 batteries with same voltage in series?
You will get double the voltage.
If you have two 1.5-V batteries and they have the positive terminal of one batery connected with the negative terminal of another how does that voltage compare with the voltage of a single battery?
Connecting batteries + to - is said to be connecting them in series. The voltage from two batteries in series will be additave. So two 1.5 volt batteries in series will give you 3.0 volts.
What happens to the voltage if batteries if they are setup in a parallel and a series circuit?
Assuming all of the individual batteries are the same voltage, if arranged in a parallel circuit the voltage is the same as any one battery. If arranged in a series circuit the voltage will be the sum (the total) of all of the batteries added together.
If you have four batteries in series what is the output voltage?
depends on the voltage of the batteries.. four 12 volt car batteries would output 4x12 = 48 v
Can you make a bulb glow more brightly by adding a second battery?
Yes, two batteries will make a light bulb brighter than one, provided that the batteries are placed in series. The brightness of the bulb is determined by the voltage, and placing two batteries in series rather than just using one increases the voltage.
Addition of batteries increase the total voltage?
Yes.If you connect the batteries in series the total voltage will be the sum of the voltages of the batteries.For example if you connect a 12 volt battery in series with a 6 volt battery the total voltage will be 18 volts.
How must batteries be connected in order to increase the voltage in a circuit?
in series
