The voltage would be the difference in the voltages of the two cell since one cell will be giving a positive voltage and the other will be giving a negative voltage.. For instance, of both cells were your standard 1.5v cell, the total of two in series opposition would be 0 because 1.5v + -1.5v = 0v. If one of the cells was slightly used and had a voltage of 1.47v then you would end up with a voltage of -0.03v. That is, 1.47 + -1.5v. Flip the cells around and you will get +0.03v since 1.5v + -1.47v = 0.03v. Hope that makes sense.

How does the voltage measured across a dry cell ompare with the voltage drop measured across three bulbs in series?
How does the voltage measured across a dry cell ompare with the voltage drop measured across three bulbs in series?
What do dry cells and wet cells have in common?
P
What is Another name for dry cells is?
Batteries
What is the ability of nerve and muscle cells to produce changes in membrane voltage?
excitablity
What element accounts for most of the dry weight of cells?
carbon
What happened to the voltage in the circuit as more dry cells were connected in the series?
The voltage increases in this case.
Are dry cells a source of constant direct current voltage?
Yes.
When two cells with the same voltage are connected in a series circuit what happens to the voltage?
There is addition of voltage. Dry cells have 1.5 volts irrespective of there size. if the cells are added as same polarity in series it will add if are parallel then voltage remains same
How are the dry cells connected in series connection?
The voltage will be double that of one dry cell. The current will be that of one dry cell.
How many cells does a 6 volt battery have?
It depends on what the 6 cells are, but the battery voltage is just 6 times the cell voltage. In a car battery (lead-acid cells) - 12V In a dry-battery (zinc-carbon cells) - 9V
What is a group of dry cells connected together with their positive poles pointing to the same direction?
"series" ... high voltage
Opposition to voltage changes in a wire is called what?
Opposition to voltage changes in a wire is called back EMF or counter EMF.See related links below.
A battery consists of five dry cells connected in series. If the voltage dev eloped by each cell is 1.5 V the total voltage developed by the battery is?
7.5 Volts
What is a group of dry cells connected together with their positive poles pointing to the same direction called?
"series" ... high voltage
A battery consists office dry cells connected is series if the voltage developed by each cell is 1.5 v the total voltage developed by the battery is?
1.5v+1.5v+`n batteries. You didn't say how many cells, but if they're wired in series, the voltage is additive. 7.5 volts
Why is it that 8 pieces of 1.5volts dry cells connected in series cannot be used to start a car?
Voltage between points A and B creates the tendency for current to move. While you have the voltage you need, your little dry cells can't generate enough current through the motor to overcome the resistance of the engine. They just don't have enough juice stored in them.
What to do if your car battery is dry?
Add distilled water to the battery cells. Get the water just so each cell in underwater. And then find out why it is dry. Could be the voltage regulator is defective and the battery is being overcharged.
