Question
If a 6 volt battery is connected in series with a 1.5 volt flashlight cell, what two possible terminal voltages are available Suppose that in the circuit of Fig. 5-1, a 6 volt battery is used and the voltage drop across the light bulb is measured to be 4 volts. What must the voltage across the motor be In the circuit of Fig. 5-3, assume that the current flow through each light bulb is the same. If the current through the battery is 0.1 amp, what is the current in each light bulb A current of 0.1 amp is measured to flow through one of three identical light bulbs connected in series to a battery. What is the current through the other two bulbs When a 6 volt battery is connected to a particular type of electric heater element, a current of 0.5 amp flows. How much current must the battery deliver to a parallel combination of two identical heatersExplanation / Answer
We have to connect 6V battery with 1.5 volt flash light in series . This can be done in four ways.
(1) 6v battery positive end with 1.5v positive end.
(2)6v battery negative end with 1.5v negative end.
(3)6v battery positive end with 1.5v negative end.
(4)6v battery negative end with 1.5v positive end.
For case 1 and 2
The voltage of terminals diffrence between two voltage that is (6V -1.5V)= 4.5 V or (1.5V-6V)=-4.5 V.
For case 3 and 4
The voltage is addition of two (6v+1.5v)=7.5 V or -7.5V depending upon wich way you measure.
