A battery consists of five dry cells connected in series. If the voltage developed by each cell is 1.5 V, the total voltage developed by the battery is

Question

Question 8 options:

A)

5.0 V.

B)

0.3 V.

C)

7.5 V.

D)

1.5 V.

Answer 1

To find the total voltage developed by the battery consisting of five dry cells connected in series, you simply add the voltage of each cell together.

Each cell has a voltage of 1.5 V. Therefore, for five cells:

Total voltage = Number of cells × Voltage per cell Total voltage = 5 × 1.5 V = 7.5 V

So, the total voltage developed by the battery is:

C) 7.5 V.
