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

This "best" answer is incorrect in that a series connection would increase the voltage. So you would want to connect them in parallel to increase the amperage. A series-parallel connection would increase both voltage and amperage.

I had thought the same thing, but wasn't sure so I looked online and found this answer labeled as "best" so that is what I submitted on my exam and it was incorrect. I emailed my instructor and he explained my confusion.

When you connect cells in series which two quantities are the same for all cells?

When battery cells are connected in series and a conducting circuit is connected between the terminals of the string, the current out of the positive terminal of each cell and the current into the negative terminal of each cell are all the same number.


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.

Connect 4 in series.


What should be charging current for 12V 3Ah battery?

There is not enough information. It depends on the type of battery: chemistry, cells, size.

What is current drain cells?

the current in the drain circuit of a field effect transistor.


When is it usually desirable to connect cells in series?

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.


What happens when you touch the negative battery cable to the positive battery cable?

current flows from the negative to the positive cable and back into the battery cells, recombining with the element depleted of electrons that are flowing out the negative cable. The process is not 100% efficient and the battery will eventually cease producing current.


Desribe one property of metal that makes it a good material to connect to the cells and bulbs?

Metals are good conductors of electric current as they have free electrons. So metals have been used as connecting wires to connect the cells and bulbs.


The voltage or current capacity of a battery can be increased if two or more cells are connected together To increase current capacity a series connection is used?

Each cell of a battery has a predefined voltage, and for a given type of battery, a predefined maximum current capability. Putting cells in series, just like putting batteries in series, increases the voltage (1 AAA battery = 1.5 volts, 2 AAA batteries in series = 3 volts). Putting cells in parallel increases the amount of current that can be drawn from them (1 cell = 1 cell max. current, 2 cells in parallel = 2 cells worth max current). Note available power will be the same (P = V*I), so whether you use a series or parallel connection usually depends upon the desired output voltage.


What is the voltage and ma of 4 C Batteries?

A C dry cell battery has a voltage of 1.5 volts. The amperage produced by the battery is dependant upon what the load current is of the connected device. The higher the load current the quicker the battery will discharge, shortening the life of the battery. Rechargeable C cells will have to be recharged at this point in time. Four cells in parallel will produce a total of 1.5 volts. Four cells in series will produce a voltage of 6 volts.
