Corrosion around an electrical terminal causes an increase in electrical resistance. explain why this would be undesirable in a battery?
As the corrosion increases the resistance, and batteries are designed to give a specified voltage to the circuit attached to it, hence if the resistance across the terminals of battery increases thn the voltage drop across the terminals of battery will increase, causing a decrease in voltage supplied to the external circuit, which is undesire-able. Hope u got the answer :) ---- Corrosion allows atoms of energy to drain off through the frame. If the battery is not a newer one it will go dead soon. Corrosion is the wrong term oxidation of metal is what occurs when electrolyte leaks. WHEN that is evident then the additional resistance induced will limit the current output. Basically reduce the efficiency of the battery as a source of power. ----
What is difference between wet corrosion and dry corrosion?
Corrosion is occurs when a metal becomes wet or damp. A current flows through this, making the unmoving particles throught the steel to the more reactive parts on the surface. These are called anodes. The current returns from the more reactive parts, through it, and then back to the the more still parts. Where the current leaves the anode, rust forms. Wet corrosion happens when a metal or other material is wet or damp- (or can be caused through the mositure in the air) Dry corrosion is similar, however the difference is that it forms through the presence of gasses in the air
Why losses are undesirable in dc motor?
Losses are undesirable in any kind of electric motor (DC, AC, stepper, servo, synchro, etc.) because they waste power, can cause excessive heating in the motor, can accelerate wear-out and cause premature failure of the motor, etc. Ultimately they are undesirable because the problems above increase the need for maintenance, thus increasing lifetime cost of the motor. It all comes down to money.
What metal resist corrosion?
gold is commonly used for this purpose
Why you are using negative voltage in the BTS?
1. To reduce the lighting effect mainly in rainy season. 2. Less corrosion because +ve can create more corrosion in the BTS system. 3. Safer for human body.
How does corrosion affect a battery?
It can block the charge from the battery to the system if there is to much. The corrosion gets between the terminals and the power won't go through. If you have corrosion on your terminals you need to clean them.
What causes battery corrosion?
Sulfuric acid fumes escaping from the battery.
Why does corrosion build up on batteries?
Hydrogen gas escaping from the battery causes this corrosion.
Can you give me a sentence with the word corrosion?
The car battery is NOT dead, it is suffering from the effects of corrosion!
What happens if you inhale battery corrosion?
Battery corrosion is toxic and very corrosive to metal. It might be in your best interest to call your physician and ask them what to do.

Can grease be used to prevent corrosion on a car battery terminal battery?
A very thin smear of Copper Grease over the Battery terminal / Cable end will help pevent corrosion.
What does electric battery run on?
Controlled corrosion of the metal electrodes inside the battery.
How do battery terminal anti corrosion rings work?
They absorb the sulfuric acid fumes which causes corrosion.
How coke is unique?
It can remove corrosion from a battery cable.
Can battery corrosion be used like a drug?
yes
Can corrosion on battery cause lights to dim?
possibly
