Best Answer

All batteries connected in series have additive voltages. All same voltage batteries connected in parallel have the same voltage as one of the parallel battery but their amp hour capacity is increased.

Example series wound batteries of four 1.5v batteries, would lite a big 6v flashlight. (all 1.5v batteries = Et= 1.5v x4=6volts). That is the big square battery to lite square flashlights.

What produces more light series or parallel circuits?

A series circuit will produce more voltage. For example, two 12 volt automotive batteries both have a 600 amp capacity. Connect the 2 batteries in series and you will have 24 volts with 600 amp capacity. Connect the 2 batteries in parallel and you will have 12 volts with 1200 amp capacity.


Four 9-volt batteries are connected in parallel how much voltage is active across the circuit?

Four 9v batteries connected in a parallel will still emit 9 volts because you are not increasing the voltage, you are increasing the life. To increase the voltage of four 9v batteries, you must connect them in a series; that series will emit 9v X 4(batteries), which equals 36 volts.


If a circuit has two AA alkaline batteries how many joules of energy does each coulomb of charge?

You need to multiply the number of coulombs by the number of volts. If the two batteries are in series, then you can add the voltage of both batteries.


What is the difference between parallel circuits and series circuit?

In parallel circuits all positives go to negatives, in series it is positive to positive,negative to negative. The difference example , if 12 vote batteries are in parallel 2 batteries would produce 24 volts, in series you would boost the time required to depleate the battery, but it would stay at 12 volts.


What would be the total voltage in a circuit that has two 6 volt batteries connected in series?

4 amperes. The voltage adds when batteries are connected in series. If they are the same voltage then the voltage doubles. Using Ohm's law: V = I*R with the voltage doubling and resistance being the same you get I = 2V/R and where V/R was your initial current you get I = 2*2ampers = 4 ampreres

How do you convert 2 eight volt batteries to a 12 volt battery?

You can not. Looks like you have the two and eight backwards in the question as you can reconfigure eight 2 volt batteries to produce 12 volts. Think out of the box. Parallel two sets of two batteries in series for a total of four volts. Then add four batteries in series for an additional eight volts. You now have a total of twelve volts.


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 do you get 24 volts from 2 batteries not in series?

Two 24 volt batteries in parallel will give you 24 volts. The only other way is two 12 volt batteries in series.


How many volts do 3 AA batteries supply?

A single AA battery will produce 1.5 volts. In series the voltage is additive. In parallel the voltage remains the same but the batteries total capacity is increased.


How do you connect two batteries to work as one?

Type your answer here... To use two batteries as a single power source, you have to connect the positive to the negative and the remaining negative to ground. The remaining positive goes to the red positive cable. The batteries are now in a series circuit. If you use two 6 volt batteries the total voltage is 12 volts. If you use 2 12 volt batteries the total voltage is 24 volts. If you hook the batteries both negative to negative and positive to positive you have made a parallel circuit. Batteries in a parallel circuit cancel each other out. Two 6 volt batteries in parallel have a total voltage of 0 volts. klb

Why are batteries sometimes joined in series?

Batteries are connected in series to add their voltages together. For example, two car batteries in series will give twenty four volts.


If you connect 2 12 volt batteries in parallel?

You will have a 12 Volt source with double the charge capacity.


Can you parallel 4 sets of 6 volt batteries to get 12volts at the same time having the same batteries in series for a 48 volt laod?

Paralleling four sets of 6 volt batteries will still give you 6 volts. Two 6 volt batteries in series will give you 12 volts. Parallel these series sets will give you longer endurance at 12 volts. There is no way you will ever get 48 volts out of four 6 volt batteries.


If you have four 6 volt batteries with 220 amp hours each and you combine them in series to make 24 volts will the total amp hours then become 880 or remain 220?

it will remain 220. the VOLTS will quadruple, but the storage capacity of the batteries remains the same, whether you connect them in series or in parallel.


How do you hook up 12 volts lights using 6 6 volt batteries?

Use a series parallel configuration. Two batteries in series to get the 12 volts. Three parallel banks of two batteries to get an increase of amp hours.


How many volts does it take to charge two 12 volt batteries ran in series?

24 Volts.
