In electronics circuits current is common in series circuits and voltage is common across parallel circuits. LEDs in series draw less current, but require more voltage. Total power remains the same until multiple drivers are introduced in a parallel configuration.

In a series the total voltage will be the sum of all the volts of the cells connected in that series eg you have four 1.5 volt cells connected in a series the total voltage in that series will be 4 * 1.5 = 6 V . In a parallel if you have four 1.5 cells connected the total voltage will stay 1.5 volt no matter how many 1.5 cells you attach . In other words if you need a lot of voltage connect in series , if you need a constant voltage for a long time connect in parallel.

A: Anytime more voltage is required. Be aware that a car battery and a 1.25 volts will provide more voltage alright but it will not provide the power the power that the car battery will

To construct a battery with a current of 6 amps you would connect six 1 amps cells?

You would connect them in parallel to increase the amerage. If you connect them in series it would increaseΒ the voltage. Connected in series-parallel would increase both voltage and amerage.

What will happen if more bulbs are added to a circuit with one cell?

YESAnswerNot necessarily. The current depends on the potential difference and the load resistance. If you connect cells in parallel, you do not effect its voltage or the load, so the current is unaffected (although the battery's current 'capacity' will increase). If you connect the cells in series, then you will increase the voltage and the current will increase.
