Both AA and D batteries are 1½ volts. A D battery is used where more current is required - it can deliver more power for longer.

For typical batteries with alkaline chemistry:

The typical capacity of a D battery is 12000 to 18000 mAh.

The typical capacity of an AA battery is 1200 to 2500 mAh.

Two AA batteries in parallel will supply twice their current rating, about 2400 to 5000 mAh. You would need 8 to 10 AA batteries in parallel to supply the current of a D battery.

How much voltage is provided by 3 AA batteries if the batteries are wired in paraell series?

Wired in parallel you will have 1.5 volts just like you have 1 battery. Wired in series you will have 4.5 volts. In parellel the amperage will triple but the volts stay the same.

If Four 12 voltsbatteries connected in parallel and one 12 volt battery in series how much voltage is active across circuit?

A == B (- 12V +) (- 12V +) (- 12V +) A single 12V battery in series with 4x 12V batteries connected in parallel... Total voltage from A to B is 24 volts! Note that the single battery in series will limit the total current capacity to that of a single battery.


Are bulbs brighter in a series or parallel curcuit?

Batteries in series makes the voltage additive. If the bulb is only rated at a specific voltage and you double the voltage the bulb will glow brighter but its life span will be shortened. Batteries in parallel will keep the voltage at the same level as a single battery but the endurance drain of the batteries will be doubled. Example, if a battery is drained of power, with a bulb being left on continuously, in one hour then two batteries in parallel would allow the bulb to glow for two hours before the batteries were drained of power.

What happens if two lots of 12dc volts are applied?

It depends how they are connected. If the terminals of two 12 volt batteries batteries are connected to the same circuit (in parallel) then there is no change in the flow of current- it will just last for twice as long a time. But if two opposing terminals of the batteries are connected to each other first and the free terminals then connected to the circuit (in series) then there would be a total voltage of 24 volts and twice as much current would flow. The two batteries would last for the same length of time as one battery on its own.

What happens when you connect batteries of different capacities i.e Ah in parallel or in series in a circuit?

Capacity in Ah is not directly related to voltage. If you have 3 AA batteries, each with different mAh ratings, you should be able to connect them in parallel or series to your hearts content. In series, the voltage will be additive: 3*(1.5volts) = 4.5 volts total voltage across all three batteries in series, assuming the battery voltage is 1.5 volts. In parallel, the voltage will be equivalent to 1 battery. In parallel, the three batteries are able to provide 3 times more current at 1.5 volts than if all three are in series at 4.5 volts. Be careful when parallelling batteries of different voltages though. This is not a good idea, as they will try to force each other to match terminal voltage (voltage at the outputs of the batteries). An example: 1.5 volt AA battery, and a 12 volt car battery can be put in series - the total voltage will be 13.5 volts. The total current that can be sourced will be limitted by the AA's limit (much less than the car battery's limit). If put in parallel, the AA will try to force the voltage of the car battery down to 1.5 volts by drawing current into itself from the car battery. Alternately, the car battery will try to force the AA to 12 volts by pushing current into the AA battery. The AA battery will overheat, and likely catastrophically fail (blow up).
