How much energy is stored in a one volt battery?

That can vary a lot, depending on the size of the battery. The "volt" is not an indication of energy stored. It simply means that (on average), each electron is pushed at a certain energy. To get the total energy, you would also need to know how much current it can provide, and for how long. The total energy can be calculated as the product of the voltage, the current, and how long this current flows (assuming a constant current; otherwise you would have to integrate).


True or false Moving current has electrical energy?

It is true that moving current has electrical energy.


What makes an energy transformation inefficient?

Energy can get wasted through several means. One of the most obvious ones is friction. However, entropy also increases - and energy therefore gets wasted - in other ways; for example, when there is a heat transfer between two objects that are at different temperatures; when eddies are produced in a water current (or electrical current); when electrical current gets converted to heat in a resistance; and through several other means. Quite often, the intention of an energy transformation is to produce one type of energy (for example, light in a light-bulb); but additional (undesired) types of energy are produces as well, quite often heat.


What is the the energy carried by each unit of a current called?

Amperage is the energy carried by each unit of a current


What causes electrical energy to be transformed into heat and light energy as a current flows in a light bulb?

Eletric current

If no current flows through a load how much energy does it receive?

none. no current means no energy.


What does to allow energy of electricity to flow mean?

It means that you let an electrical current flow. The current will, of course, carry energy.


How is electrisity energy?

That means that electricity contains a certain amount of energy; that you need energy to produce an electrical current; and that such energy can, in turn, be converted into other types of energy.


How is battery voltage related to electrical energy?

Voltage is the amount of energy in each coulomb of charge that passes through the battery. This means that the energy is the voltage times the time-integral of the current. For a constant current: E = V I t Where E = Energy in Joules V = Voltage in Volts I = Current in Amps t = time in seconds

What must a magnet do to generate an alternating current?

To generate an alternating current, a magnet must use kinetic energy. This means that the magnet must move at a certain speed and velocity in order to create a strong enough energy charge.


Is alternating current can be stored?

"Current" cannot be stored at all in any way; when you stop it moving, it isn't current any more and moving it means using it. The energy carried however, can be stored in several different ways.

What does acdc means?

AC/DC basically stands for "alternating current/direct current" which is an indication that electricity is changing from an alternating current (e.g. from your wall outlet) to a 'direct current' (e.g. your T.V.). Brothers Malcolm and Angus Young felt that this perfectly symbolised the music they wanted to make (i.e. raw energy, performances driven by power and a sheer love of music).


Where does electricity get energy?

An electric current HAS energy. The energy comes from whatever caused the electric current to flow in the first place - for example, a generator, or a battery.
