Question

The capacity of a battery is 1800 mAh and its OCV is 3.9 V. a) Two batteries are placed in series. What is the combined battery OCV and when charged at 2C what is its capacity? b) Two batteries are placed in parallel. What is the combined OCV and capacity?

Answer 1

Answer:

capacity  = 0.555 mAh

capacity  = 3600 mAh

Explanation:

given data

battery = 1800 mAh

OCV = 3.9 V

solution

we get here capacity when it is in series

so here Q = 2C  

capacity  = 2 × ampere × second   ...............1

put here value and we get

and 1 Ah = 3600 C

capacity  = $\frac{2}{3600}$

capacity  = 0.555 mAh

and

when it is in parallel than capacity will be

capacity = Q1 +Q2   ...............2

capacity  = 1800 + 1800

capacity  = 3600 mAh
