If all the batteries are part of one branch they can be combined into a single equivalent battery. Common electric circuits and combination of batteries in common electric circuits you can come across with batteries switches and connection wires.
Two Batteries In Series
Circuits with multiple batteries. In this case there will be an uncontrolled current flow as the high voltage battery discharges and the low voltage battery charges. With more than one battery the situation is trickier. In such cases we rely on kirchoffs rules the loop rule and the junction rule. If you accidentally connect batteries of different voltages together your should run away especially if the batteries are large there is a real risk of explosion. Exploration 189 analyzing a multi loop circuit solve for the current through each of the resistors in the circuit shown in figure 1822. We show it in the circuit as.
In many circuits with more than one battery the batteries cannot be replaced by a single battery. We now examine the components of the simple circuit one by one. In a circuit involving one battery and a number of resistors in series andor parallel the resistors can generally be reduced to a single equivalent resistor. I made this video to help explain the situation. Device which supplies energy to the circuit is called battery. R is the internal resistance of the.
