E.

Joined in parallel, the voltage (or electromotive force, "emf") isn't additive. You'd get four times the current, or four times the life of a single battery, but it would have the same voltage.

If you charge four 50v capacitors in parallel then remove the 50v battery and hook it up to a volt meter will the meter say 50v or 200v?

If you charge four 50v capacitors in parallel then remove the 50v battery and hook them up to a volt meter the meter will indicate 50v.


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.


What are the two kinds of electrical circuit?

There are four types of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.


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.


Four 9-volt batteries are connected in parallel how much voltage is active across the circuit?

Four 9v batteries connected in a parallel will still emit 9 volts because you are not increasing the voltage, you are increasing the life. To increase the voltage of four 9v batteries, you must connect them in a series; that series will emit 9v X 4(batteries), which equals 36 volts.

What is the voltage and ma of 4 C Batteries?

A C dry cell battery has a voltage of 1.5 volts. The amperage produced by the battery is dependant upon what the load current is of the connected device. The higher the load current the quicker the battery will discharge, shortening the life of the battery. Rechargeable C cells will have to be recharged at this point in time. Four cells in parallel will produce a total of 1.5 volts. Four cells in series will produce a voltage of 6 volts.


How many bulbs of 8 ohms should be joined in parallel to draw a current of 2 Amphere from a battery of 4 volt?

Using Ohm's Law E=IR, we would need four 8 ohm bulbs in parallel to draw a total circuit current (I sub t) of 2 amps. Each of the four branches would have .5 amps flowing through the bulb.


Can 3 of four batteries be wired up in series and 1 in parallel. Will this setup drain the parallel battery?

No it will impose the voltage of the three series batteries across the terminals of the paralleled battery. Batteries can only be parallel when all of the voltage potentials are near equal.

Why is a 6 volt battery bigger than a 9 volt?

The voltage is set by the number of cells, so a 6 v battery has four cells and a 9 v battery has six. The size of the cells decides the capacity but not the voltage, so four big cells might be bigger than six small ones. The one with bigger cells has a greater amp-hour capacity.


What is a mathematical definition of right trapazoid?

It is a closed four-sided shape with one pair of parallel sides, joined at only one end by a line which is perpendicular to both.


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.


Does a 12 volt battery contain four cells?

Usually not, but it may. The number of cells depends on the cell voltage, and to get a 12V, 4-cell battery you'd need to use a chemistry that gives a 3V cell voltage - which some Lithium-type primary cells do.


Does a Square have four parallel sides?

A square (i am pretty sure) has 2 sets of parallel sides and four parallel sides.


Can I turn a 9V battery output to 6V 100mA?

No! You need fewer cells for six volts. Most 9 volt batteries have six 1.5 volt cells, but a six volt battery has four 1.5 volt cells. In theory you could open the battery up and install a tap at the fourth cell, but that is pretty hard to do.

How many parallel sides does a square have?

A square has four parallel sides (two pairs of parallel sides).
