Yes, for about .1 second, then it will blow the lamp. A 9v battery will however light three 3.5v lamps.

It would light a 9-volt bulb correctly. It would also light a 12-volt bulb at reduced brightness.

What is the battery life of a 9 volt battery on a 3.5 volt of a bulb?

The battery life (assuming it is a primary cell) is determined by the Ampere-hour drawn from it. You cannot connect a 3.5V bulb directly to a 9V battery. The bulb will fuse.


Can you use a 3 volt charger for a 9 volt battery?

No


Can you use a 6 volt charger for a 9 volt battery?

No, the battery will be overcharged and battery damage will occur if it is done.


Is a lead acid car battery the same as a 9 volt alkaline battery?

No, a lead acid battery is a wet cell battery and a 9 volt alkaline battery is a dry cell battery.


What Happens if a 9 volt battery touches another 9 volt battery?

It heats up very hot and may explode.


Can a 9 volt charger be used to charge a 7.2 volt battery?

no


What is the function of a resistor in a light bulb?

Most light bulbs don't have resistors; they are resistors. The filament introduces resistance as part of its action. The resistance is what makes it glow. Usually, if you use a resistor with a light bulb or other lighting device (neon tube, LED, etc), it is external. Its purpose is to reduce the voltage to match the requirements of the bulb. For instance, with a 50 ohm resistor, you could probably use a flashlight bulb with a 9 volt battery.


How long does a 12 volt light bulb last with a 9 volt battery?

Depends. Whats the amperage rating on the bulb and the battery? Is the 12 volt bulb LED? The equation to find your answer depends on how much your 12 volt bulb is drawing and how much your battery has. I have seen 12 volt bulbs that are searchlights and I have seen 12v bulbs that are little LED ones. Huge difference in the amperage draw which will have a massive difference in your answer to how long your 9 volt battery will last. Same goes for the amperage of your battery. I have been in the military and seen 6 volt batteries that are smaller than a AA and I have seen the 6V at walmart that are decent sized and much bigger than a 9v.If you want to power your 12v bulb for a long time, connect two 6v batteries in parallel. That will give you lots of amperage and a full 12 volts.Another AnswerA 12-V incandescent lamp, operating at 9 V, will operate well-below its rated power and will, therefore, last much longer than it it were operated at 12 V. Further to the original answer, lamps don't have 'amperage' (current) ratings and is certainly unrelated to 'how much the battery has'! Finally, in order to achieve 12 V, two 6-V batteries would need to be connected in series, NOT parallel.


A 9.0 volt battery connected to bulb. if a current of 0.25 Amps flows through bulb what is the resistance of bulb?

V = IR Voltage = Current * Resistance so 9 = 0.25 * R Hence R =36 Ohms
