Question

If you connect two identical storage batteries together in series (" " to "-"), and place them in a circuit, the combination will provide Enter
1 for A) , 2 for B) , 3 for C) , 4 for D) , 5 for E)
A) the same voltage and the same current will flow through each.
B) twice the voltage, and different currents will flow through each.
C) the same voltage, and different currents will flow through each.
D) twice the voltage, and the same current will flow through each.

Answer 1

Answer:

4 (D): twice the voltage, and the same current will flow through each.

Explanation:

When we have batteries in series in a circuit, the equivalent voltage will be the sum of their voltages, and the current flowing through then will be the same.

These batteries are identical, so they have the same voltage, therefore when they are put in series, the equivalent voltage will be twice the voltage of one battery.

So the correct option is 4 (D): twice the voltage, and the same current will flow through each.
