If the batteries are connected from + (positive) to - (negative) then the batteries are connected in "series". If the batteries are AA (1.5v each), then the resulting voltage of the two connected in series will be 3.0v.
If the batteries are connected + to + and - to -, then they are connected in "parallel" and for the same batteries the voltage would be 1.5v, but would last twice as long as one battery by itself.
A truck battery system is two 12v batteries connected in series (+ to -) to give the truck a running power of 24v.

What is two or more batteries put together?
circuit
Will the circuit with two batteries a bulb and a motor work?
If you will connect it right, it will work.
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
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.
How to build an led cIRCUIT?
Connect an LED, two AA batteries, and a resistor of around 100-150 ohms, all in series.If the LED doesn't light, then turn either the LED or the batteries around in the circuit.
What is the purpose of the batteries in the circuit?
The purpose of the battery in a circuit is to wive energy to the circuit
What is the effect of a series circuit?
multiplies source voltage, two 12v dc batteries in series become a 24v circuit; also multiplies resistence
What is the difference between a double and single circuit circulation?
a single circuit has only one source of energy, like a battery compartment (no matter the amount of batteries) a double circuit has two sources of energy, like two batter compartments
Is TWO OR MORE batteries and two or more loads can be defined as series circuit Or a series circuit has only just ONE source (battery) and 2 or more loads?
Your question is very muddled and it is difficult to understand exactly what you are asking. Something is in "series" if it is connected in the circuit as a "daisy chain". Thus both loads AND batteries may be placed in series.
If you wired up the circuit with a bulb two batteries and a switch with a thin wire what will happen?
the bulb will light up
What is the current in the circuit contains two 1.5 volt batteries and 6 ohm light bulb?
If the two batteries are in series, add the voltages. Then use Ohm's Law to calculate the current (that is, divide the voltage by the resistance).
What happens if two lots of 12dc volts are applied?
It depends how they are connected. If the terminals of two 12 volt batteries batteries are connected to the same circuit (in parallel) then there is no change in the flow of current- it will just last for twice as long a time. But if two opposing terminals of the batteries are connected to each other first and the free terminals then connected to the circuit (in series) then there would be a total voltage of 24 volts and twice as much current would flow. The two batteries would last for the same length of time as one battery on its own.
