In solar battery charger is it more efficient time to set the solar cell in series or parallel For example if you have 2 of 1.5 V 2500mAh batteries and 5 8V 44 mAh solar cells?

For a very simple circuit, using only the solar cells and batteries and possibly a DC/DC converter to keep the voltage at safe levels for the batteries, placing the solar cells in parallel will yield higher current and shorten the charging time of the batteries. In the example you used by placing the five solar cells in parallel you obtain a theoretical maximum current of 220 mAh. This would bring the charging time to 2500/220 or 11.36 hours. This calculation assumes that for the full duration of charging the current is kept constant at 220 mAh.

What is tubular battery?
A tubular battery is one type of popular battery designs with parallel tubes that contain lead oxide. Thy are designed with openings that offer easy maintenance. The batteries are more efficient with less water loss and have a fast charge rate.
How do you make a circuit with 3 bulbs 2 switches and and 2 batteries where the 1st switch controls the lighting of all the bulbs and the 2nd switch controls the lighting of the second bulb?
Connect the two batteries for the voltage needed. If they are 12 volt batteries and the lights are 12 volts, connect the batteries in parallel (negative to negative and positive to positive). If they are 12 volt batteries and the lights are 24 volts, connect the batteries in series (negative of one battery to positive of the other). Run a wire from batteries to first switch, then to two of the lights and the other switch (in parallel). From the second switch run a wire to the third light, then connect all three lights back to the battery.
A machine to recharge batteries is a?
It is called a battery charger.
Do cars use disposable batteries or rechargeable batteries?
The battery that starts the engine and runs all the electronics is a rechargeable battery. The only disposable battery may be the one in the remote for the car.
Lemon battery and its importance in society?
Batteries contain acid that is very corrosive, and horrible for the enviroment. If the lemon battery can be taken further, it might eliminate the use of batteries.
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.
What is parallel car battery wiring?
parallel battery wiring is hooking 2 batteries together in parallel series give you double the volts Clarification: Parallel battery wiring is where two or more batteries are hooked together in parallel (i.e. both/all positive battery terminals are wiredtogether, and both/all negative battery terminals are wired together. This results in a battery voltage which is the same as that of the individual batteries (typically 12V in most cars). The reason for doing this is to boost battery capacity- two identical batteries wired in parallel give twice the electical storage capacity of one battery. No increase in voltage is obtained with parallel wiring. Series wiring is where two or more batteries are hooked together in series (i.e. positive terminal of the first battery is hooked to the negative terminal of the second battery). The resulting voltage is the sum of the individual battery voltages - if two 12V batteries are hooked together, the resulting voltage will be 24V. No increase of storage capacity is obtained with series wiring.

In what type of appliance would you use a circuit with batteries in parallel?
Batteries in parallel is not recommended. Not unless they are equalized. the appliances can be one guess since the battery only see a load
Would two AA batteries in parallel do as much work as one D battery?
Both AA and D batteries are 1½ volts. A D battery is used where more current is required - it can deliver more power for longer. For typical batteries with alkaline chemistry: The typical capacity of a D battery is 12000 to 18000 mAh. The typical capacity of an AA battery is 1200 to 2500 mAh. Two AA batteries in parallel will supply twice their current rating, about 2400 to 5000 mAh. You would need 8 to 10 AA batteries in parallel to supply the current of a D battery.
Which generation electricity most efficient batteries or turbines?
A fuel cell type battery is the most efficient type of electricity generation.
Does a battery operated toy contain a parallel circuit?
Yes, many toys which use batteries contain parallel and series circuits.
If we connect tha 2 v battery in parallel so what happend?
If you connect any 2 batteries with the same voltage in parallel the voltage stays the same as one of the batteries but the current doubles.
What is the voltage when batteries are connected in parallel?
When batteries are connected in parallel, the voltage remains the same as the voltage of a single battery. This is because the positive terminals are connected together and the negative terminals are connected together, so the voltage across each battery remains constant.
How to connect 4 - 6V batteries for -12V system?
In order to connect 4-6 volt batteries and end up with 12volts you will need to understand parallel and series connections. to connect two batteries in parallel you would connect the positive side of one battery to the positive side of the other battery; and the negative side of one battery to the negative of the other battery. doing this will not change the voltage. to connect in series you connect the positive of one battery to the negative of the other battery. doing this will increase the voltage;in this example you will end up with 12v. 6+6=12. when you stack batteries in a 2-cell flashlight that is connecting the batteries in series. The answer to the question is: connect two batteries in series; then connect the other two batteries in series. after this is done connect the two pairs of batteries in parallel. If you think of it visually you would have two batteries wide and two batteries tall.
