What does 'v' on the battery stands for?

The 'V' on a battery typically stands for voltage, which is a measure of the electrical potential difference between the positive and negative terminals of the battery. It indicates the strength of the battery's electrical force or power output.


What is the equation for calculating the energy stored in a battery?

The equation for calculating the energy stored in a battery is E V Q, where E represents the energy in joules, V is the voltage of the battery in volts, and Q is the charge stored in the battery in coulombs.


What does v stand for in the formula of kinetic energy?

The v in the formula for density stands for volume.


When a 12 V battery ie a battery of EMF 12 V is connected across a lamp with a resistance of 6.8 ohms the potential difference across the lamp is 10.2 V Find the current through the lamp?

The potential difference across the lamp is given by Ohm's Law: V = IR, where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the resistance. From the given values, 10.2 V = I * 6.8 ohms. Solving for I, we find that the current through the lamp is approximately 1.5 A.


What is meant by calculate the equivalent resistance of the circuit from the measured potential difference across the battery and the current through the battery is there a formula for this?

In a complex circuit with various elements (resistors, capacitors etc.) and one battery, the various circut elements contribute to draw a certain amount of current "I"from the battery at some terminal voltage "V". The "equivalent" resistance of the various circuit elements is that resistance "R" which will draw the same current , at the same terminal voltage, as the complex circuit. So to find "R" you simply imagine replacing the complex circuit with "R" by attaching "R" across the terminals of the battery and use Ohms law to find "R" , demanding "I" and "V" are the same. So then R = V/I.
