What is the common name for corrosion?
Corrosion, rust, build up, nasty mess, but he most common is "corrosion", then "rust".
Why does acid build up on battery posts?
it's not acid... it is corrosion and oxidizers
Should you remove batteries when they are not in use?
Yes, it is recommended to remove batteries when they are not in use to prevent potential leakage or corrosion.
Should batteries be removed when not in use to prolong their lifespan?
Yes, removing batteries when not in use can help prolong their lifespan by preventing corrosion and leakage.
How can I safely remove corroded batteries from a flashlight?
To safely remove corroded batteries from a flashlight, wear gloves and eye protection, then use a cotton swab or toothbrush dipped in vinegar or lemon juice to clean the corrosion. Gently scrub the affected area until the corrosion is removed. Dispose of the batteries properly and clean the battery compartment before inserting new batteries.
What is the purpose of distilled water in lead-acid batteries?
to protect electrolyte and plate fom corrosion
Why should you not enclose car batteries without air flow?
Car batteries sometimes generate hydrogen gas during charging. If the battery is enclosed without air flow this hydrogen could build up to explosive levels and a small spark could trigger an explosion. When air flow is allowed the hydrogen cannot build up, making an explosion impossible. Note: this is ONLY a problem with car batteries, not dry cells or lithium batteries.
What kind of batteries are used in submarines?
They use batteries quite similar to car batteries. Sealed lead-acid batteries. They are huge. Bigger or smaller subs will of course have different sizes and amounts. Batteries produce waste gas and hydrogen when charged or discharged and must also be ventilated regularly to prevent build-up.
What motors or batteries can you use to build your own tennis ball machine?
AA batteries i would say ;)
What causes a radiator to crack?
A radiator can crack due to a build-up of pressure from overheating, corrosion over time, or physical damage such as a collision or impact.
Difference between Tubular Vs Flat Plate Batteries?
The difference between tubular and flat plate batteries are heat dissipation and lead alloy. Tubular batteries hold heat, where flat plate batteries disperse heat. Tubular batteries also have no reserve of lead alloy, which leads to corrosion by sulphuric acid.
What is galvanized batteries?
Galvanized batteries are batteries that use zinc as the anode material, which is coated with a layer of zinc oxide. This coating helps to reduce corrosion of the zinc and prolong the battery's lifetime. Galvanized batteries are commonly used in small electronic devices.
