Why wont your battery hold a charge on your 1996 mercury sabl you changed altinator and battery but it still wont work?
The battery itself could be shot, the lead plates inside do wear out over time.
Can a car battery recharge itself?
No, a charge must come from an external source. But it's confusing to some people because a battery can be discharged at the surface of the plates and if the battery is left alone for a few minutes some of the charge deep in the plates will distribute across the medium and you may have a little more charge available. A battery is simply a chemical storage device for an electrical charge. The charge initially comes from an outside source, such as an alternator, and as long as the materials inside the battery are in good condition, the battery will continue to take and hold a charge. Once the materials start to break down, the battery fails.
Does letting the battery go dead ruin the battery at all?
Yes... unless it is a high quality gel battery (and then, yes). The lead from the plates drops off. Without seed lead on the plates, recharging the battery does not reform the lead on the plates. Thus, every time one of the many plates in the battery is barren of lead, the battery will not fully charge that plate. If it happens frequently enough, all the plates will not accrue lead and thus will not hold a charge.
If you take out the battery in a capacitor before inserting a dielectric will there still be charge on the dielectric?
The charge in a capacitor is between the plates. The dielectric is only an insulator that allows the plates to be very close without touching and discharging the charge. There is no battery in a capacitor.
What is the electric potential inside a parallel-plate capacitor and how does it relate to the charge and separation distance of the plates?
The electric potential inside a parallel-plate capacitor is directly proportional to the charge on the plates and inversely proportional to the separation distance between the plates. This means that as the charge on the plates increases, the electric potential also increases, and as the separation distance between the plates decreases, the electric potential increases.
Why is it not possible to recharge five year old battery on a Chevy G20?
As batteries age the cells will sulfate. Meaning they get a coating on the plates. Eventually they become unable to accept or produce a charge.
Can you charge a battery by freezing the battery?
No. Freezing a battery will damage it. have you tested it? The worst environment for any battery is COLD. That is why there are so many problems with car batteries in the Winter. If the electrolyte in the battery freezes, it will usually expand and crack the battery case or distort the plates in the battery
What voltage should marine battery be charged?
They are all 12 volt. i charge my marine battery for 6 to 8 hrs. on 6 volt. the less voltage with a longer time is best. the faster the charge the more the lead plates in the battery disintegrate. slow and easy for long life of any battery
What are two groups battery?
Dry and wet, web would be like a lead car battery acid which is liquid inside of the battery that keeps the lead plates charged inside, dry battery would be what you use inside of your remote for tv if you cut them in half nothing will poor out because its dry acid. Very nice question
What causes a posite current in a battery?
A electrical from a battery is the flow of elecrons through a circuit in the opposite dirrection to the current flow. This current flow also happens inside the battery between the plates.
Can a regular auto battery charger be used to charge a motorcyle battery?
Check the charging current, it may be too much for the motorcycle battery and cause damage to the battery with risks of buckling electrode plates, cracking of the case, explosion or fire.
Suppose a parallel plate capacitor (with capacitance) is connected to a battery, what is the relationship between the charge stored on the capacitor and the potential difference across its plates?
The relationship between the charge stored on a capacitor and the potential difference across its plates is that the charge stored on the capacitor is directly proportional to the potential difference across its plates. This relationship is described by the formula Q CV, where Q is the charge stored on the capacitor, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the potential difference across the plates.
