How To Measure Electrical Resistance?

If you put a current of 1 amp through a resistor, the voltage across it is equal to the resistance in ohms. This can also be done with lower currents and then the result must be multiplied up in the right ratio. An ohmmeter, or the ohm scale on a multimeter, uses a battery to supply the current.

Why voltage measured at terminals of battery to which load is connected is always lower than open circuit voltage?

Real-world batteries do not have zero internal resistance. When one connects a load (resistance) to a battery, current begins to flow and the open-circuit potential is divided between the battery's internal resistance and the resistance of the load. Thus, one will measure a lower voltage at the battery terminals when a load is connected, compared to no-load conditions.


A red resistor draws more current than a blue resistor when they are connected to the same battery which resistor has the lower resistance?

The voltage of a battery goes as the current times the resistance (V=IR). Because the voltage is being held constant, the resistor that draws the most current will have the lower resistance.


What does Wh and mAH mean on a battery?

The battery can supply an amount of electric charge measured in milliampere-hours, which expresses its capacity to supply a load of a number of milliamps for a number of hours. The idea is that if the load current is high, the battery lasts for less time, so the current times the time makes good measure of the capacity. It is also common practice to measure larger batteries in amp-hours, and there are 1000 mAH in one AH. This measure is a nominal one because in practice a high current load will give a lower AH capacity than when the load is small. Multiplying the voltage by the AH capacity gives the watt-hour capacity, which measures how much energy the battery can supply. This measures is also only a nominal only because as the battery runs down its voltage reduces.

Can you use a different brand charger with a lower voltage and a hr?

Lower voltage, no, lower amps, yes. I will just take longer to charge the battery.


Can you charge a dead car battery on a battery charger?

Yes, you can even charge it on the vehicle. Make sure you charge it slowly and either use an automatic shutoff charger or pay close attention the the charge. Do not overcharge. It is best to charge it slowly with a 10 amp or lower charger. Make sure the battery cables are clean and tight.


How do you check a broken electrical connection on a battery cable?

Set a multimeter to continuity. Put the leads of the meter at either end of the wire you are checking. The lower the value the better. It should read well under 100 for a battery cable.


Ford Ranger battery appears to be dead tried a battery charger and lights came on but clicking sound when I try to start it?

Check the level of the electrolyte (water) in the battery if possible. If it is near full, then reconnect the battery charger and charge it at the 2 AMP rate. This is known as a "trickle" charge. Your charger may have the 6 amp charge rate also. The amp meter on the charger will indicate a lower and lower reading as the battery is charging and accepts the charge. An Auto Zone can "load test" your battery for free if you can get it to one of their stores. Your battery sounds weak and needs a good charge (be patient...it takes time) or needs replacing.


Can you charge a 28 volt Gill aircraft battery with a 12 volt car charger?

No, you cannot charge a 28 volt aircraft battery with a 12 volt car charger. The charger voltage needs to match the battery voltage for safe and effective charging. Using a charger with a lower voltage can damage the battery and pose safety risks.


Is it bad to charge your ipod everyday even if it still had battery?

It can wear down the battery and decrease over overall life of the battery. Just charging it until it it's fully powered can help to keep the battery life as high as possible. Make sure you do not overcharge the battery and lower it's lifespan per charge.


What is measured by Specific gravity of a lead acid cell?

Specific gravity of the electrolyte in the lead acid cell or battery (assuming that the battery is not of the sealed type) is often used as a measure of its STATE OF CHARGE. Sure we can do the same with a multimeter but the above method is more accurate.


Can i charge a 12v 7.2 battery with an out 12v-300mA charger?

Yes, you can charge a 12V 7.2Ah battery with a 12V 300mA charger, but it may take a long time to fully charge the battery due to the lower current output. The charger will provide a safe voltage for the battery, but the charging time could be significantly extended compared to a charger with a higher current output. Ensure the charger is compatible with the battery chemistry to avoid any damage.


How to check an AC capacitor with a multimeter?

To check an AC capacitor with a multimeter, set the multimeter to the capacitance setting. Disconnect the capacitor from the circuit and touch the multimeter leads to the capacitor terminals. The multimeter should display a reading close to the capacitor's rated capacitance. If the reading is significantly lower or higher, the capacitor may be faulty and in need of replacement.


Can 5v charger charge a 7.5v battery?

yes it just takes longer to charge, but check how much Amps (A) your charger gives out and how much Amps your battery can take if the battery has lower Amperage (A), don't do it, otherwise you're fine. <<>> No, the charging unit has to have a higher output that the battery voltage that it is charging. For example, on a 12 volt car battery the charging rate is 13.5 volts.
