When connecting cells in parallel, it is important that they are all of the same type.
The total e.m.f. of cells connected in parallel is equal the the e.m.f. of an individual cell.
So, if each cell has an e.m.f. of, say, 1.5 V, then it doesn't matter whether you have one cell or a hundred cells, the e.m.f. of the resulting battery will also be 1.5 V.

What is the total capacitance of 30 micro-farad capacitors connected in parallel?
In parallel, add the microfarads.
What are the laws of series and parallel connection?
1.In series connection the total resistance is equal the total number of resistor that was connected in series 2.the current is constant in a series connection 3.in a series connection total voltage is equal the number of of volt per cells
What is the total resistance is V is 10 volts R1 is 1000 ohms and R2 is 1000 Ohms?
If they're connected in series the total resistance is 2000 ohms. If they're connected in parallel the resistance is 500 ohms.
What will happen to the other resistor if the number of resistor decreases?
the voltage across that resistor will increase if it is in series with the other resistors. the current through that resistor will increase if it is in parallel with the other resistors.
When capacitors ate connected in series the capacitance increase or decrease?
Capacitors in connected in series result in a higher voltage rating, but lower capacitance. Two 470uF 50V capacitors connected in series will give you a total of 235uF, but you can put up to 100V across the series combination. Two 470uF 50V capacitors connected in parallel will give you a total of 940uF, across which you can put 50V (the voltage rating does not change for capacitors in parallel).
If 3 1.5 V cells were connected in series what would the total voltage of the circuit be What about in Parallel?
4.5 volts in series; 1.5 volts in parallel.
Three cells have voltage of 15V 18V and 20 V What is the total voltage of the cells when they are connected in parallel?
Sources with different voltages should never be connected in parallel, you would have a difference of potential. Any time you have a difference of potential connected together you will have sparks, which could cause the batteries to explode.
Three electric cells each have a voltage of 1.3Vwhat is the total voltage of the three cells if the cells are connected in parallel?
voltage is still 1.3V in parallel circuit, voltage stays the same but current adds up in series circuit, voltage adds up but current stays the same
What is the total capacitance of 30 micro-farad capacitors connected in parallel?
In parallel, add the microfarads.
What is a Parallel Resistance?
Parallel resistance refers to 2 or more resistors where the input sides are connected together and the output sides are connected together. The formula to calculate it is the inverse of the total resistance of the circuit is equal to the sum of the inverses of the individual resistances. 1/R (total) = 1/R (1) + 1/R (2) + 1/R (3) + …
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.
A circuit contains a 10 pF capacitor and a 50 pF capacitor connected in parallel.What is the total capacitance of this circuit?
When capacitors are connected in parallel, the total capacitance in the circuit in which they are connected is the sum of both capacitances. Capacitors in parallel add like resistors in series, while capacitors in series add like resistors in parallel.
What is the total voltage of a battery containing five 2 V cells connected in series?
Total voltage output of 5 2v cells connected in series would be 10v
How do you calculate total capacitance if connected in series?
reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals.
How are resistor connected in series?
when we want maximum resistance they are connected in series. when resistors are connected in series total resistance is maximum when resistors are connected in parallel total resistance is minimum for series total R=R1+R2+R3......... for parallel R1 in parallel to R2 total 1/R=(1/R1)+(1/R2) ie R=(R1*R2)/(R1+R2)
What are the laws of series and parallel connection?
1.In series connection the total resistance is equal the total number of resistor that was connected in series 2.the current is constant in a series connection 3.in a series connection total voltage is equal the number of of volt per cells
How do you connect several resistances if you want to decrease in total resistance without reducing the number of resistors?
The resistors should be connected in parallel .
