What else can I help you with?
What is the circuit when jump starting a car battery. Series or parallel?
Parallel
Does car's alarm use battery a lots and battery gone in a couple of days?
no it doesn't if the door is opened when its ON it makes a circuit and starts the car alarm
In what circuit are the cells wired up inside the car battery?
They are wired in series.
Is a free flowing path an example of a closed circuit?
It is a closed circuit if there is a load in the circuit (light bulb etc), otherwise it is a short circuit (+ to - on a car battery with a screwdriver)
Will an alternator put out power if not hooked up to a battery and y?
No, the battery is part of it's circuit. In fact nothing in the car will work without the battery.
Is it normal for a car battery to spark when connecting it?
No, it is not normal for a car battery to spark when connecting it. Sparks can indicate a poor connection or a short circuit, which can be dangerous and should be addressed immediately.
What is the purpose of the battery in the circuit?
The purpose of the battery in a circuit is to wive energy to the circuit
What happens if live wire on battery touche car bodywork?
i believe it would short circuit
94 sentra Car battery light comes on and off what can cause?
have the alternator circuit checked
Why is there a positive and a negative in a car battery?
Because you won't get a complete and closed circuit without a ground.
Why can a car battery have an open-circuit terminal voltage of twelve volts but be unable to start the car and thus be considered dead?
A fully charged cell in a car battery produces 2.2 volts, there are 6 cells in a battery. That would make true open circuit voltage on a fully charged battery at 13.2 volts. So a 12 volt open circuit reading is a discharged battery. The battery can have enough chemical reaction to produce voltage but not enough potential or power to crank the engine. Think about a fresh 9 volt battery. It is big enough to produce 9 volts, but not enough to crank a car or even light the dome light dimly. A car battery wears out slowly from the time it is purchased. Eventually it doesn't have enough power or amperage left to operate the car.
What causes a car battery to bulge?
The bulging is caused by gassing. This is caused by overcharging or by a short circuit inside the battery. The acid inside the battery is turned to gas and it expands the sides of the battery.
