No. If you connect in series, positive to negative and then connect load to the remaining positive and negative terminals then the voltage at these terminals is the added voltage of the batteries thus connected, but the capacity (amphours) stays the same.

What should batteries be connected to in order to obtain higher voltage?

To obtain a higher voltage, batteries should be connected in series. In a series connection, the positive terminal of one battery is connected to the negative terminal of the next, which allows the voltages of each battery to add together. For example, connecting two 1.5V batteries in series results in a total voltage of 3V. This method increases the overall voltage while maintaining the same capacity (amp-hour rating) as a single battery.


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


Does miliamperes increase as does battery voltage when put in a series configuration?

The current in a circuit, expressed in milliamperes, is1,000 x (battery or power supply voltage)/(resistance connected between the power supply terminals)If you increase the voltage of the battery or power supply, the current in the circuitincreases proportionally, at least until something in the circuit gets hot, melts, fuses,and opens the circuit.


If a 45vdc battery is connected in series with the 117vac utility mains what will the peak voltage be?

You will see a battery explode. AC & DC do not mix.


What is the volts when 1.5v. batteries are wired in series as the total source.?

All batteries connected in series have additive voltages. All same voltage batteries connected in parallel have the same voltage as one of the parallel battery but their amp hour capacity is increased. Example series wound batteries of four 1.5v batteries, would lite a big 6v flashlight. (all 1.5v batteries = Et= 1.5v x4=6volts). That is the big square battery to lite square flashlights.

Does the speed increase when you put a second nimh battery in the traxxas slash 1 16 brushed?

If the 2nd battery is connected "in series" with the 1st battery, the voltage will increase & the motor will run faster. If the 2nd battery is connected "in parallel" with the 1st battery, the voltage will not change, but the total battery capacity will be greater & therefore battery life will be longer than when using just 1 battery.


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.


How should three 6 volt batteries be connected?

If you connect them in series it will result in an 18V battery. If you connect them in parallel you will have a 6V battery with more capacity than one alone.


To construct a battery with a current of 6 amps you would connect six 1 amps cells?

You would connect them in parallel to increase the amerage. If you connect them in series it would increase the voltage. Connected in series-parallel would increase both voltage and amerage.

What does two or more dry cells coming together form?

Two or more dry cells coming together form a battery. When connected in series, their voltages add up, increasing the overall voltage output. If connected in parallel, they provide the same voltage but can increase the current capacity and extend the battery's life. This configuration allows for greater versatility and efficiency in powering devices.


Why do you not get battery symbol on your laptop sometimes after you on power supply in your laptop made by Toshiba model no A200?

Note: When interconnecting A200 batteries (cells), they must be identical in voltage and amp rating! Batteries may be connected in series. The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery; the positive terminal of the second is connected to the negative of the third, and so on. The voltage of the assembled battery is the sum of the individual batteries. The batteries are connected: + to - to + to - to + to -, etc. The capacity of the battery is unchanged. Batteries may also be connected in parallel. The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the positive terminal of the second battery, the positive terminal of the second is connected to the positive of the third; the negative terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery, the negative terminal of the second is connected to the negative of the third and so on. The batteries are connected: + to + to + and - to - to -. In this configuration, the capacity is the sum of the individual batteries and voltage is unchanged.

Is a car battery hooked up in series or parallel?

Car batteries are typically connected in parallel when used to maintain the same voltage while increasing capacity. This configuration allows multiple batteries to power the vehicle without increasing the voltage, ensuring compatibility with the car's electrical system. In some cases, batteries can be connected in series to increase voltage, but this is less common for standard automotive applications.


How can I connect batteries to increase voltage?

To increase voltage, you can connect batteries in series. This involves connecting the positive terminal of one battery to the negative terminal of another battery. The total voltage will be the sum of the individual battery voltages. Make sure the batteries are of the same type and capacity for best results.
