What is the potential difference produced by a single cell mentioned in the video?
9 volts
View source
What is a battery defined as in the video?
Two
or more
cells
connected
together
View source
What direction must the cells in a battery be connected?
In the
same
direction
View source
What happens to the potential difference when two cells are connected in series?
It
adds
up
to give
total
potential
difference
View source
If two cells each have a potential difference of 9 volts, what is the total potential difference when connected in series?
18
volts
View source
How do you calculate the overall potential difference of three cells each with 9 volts?
Multiply
9
by
3
View source
What is the potential difference when one cell is connected in the wrong direction?
It
cancels
out,
resulting
in 0
volts
View source
If two cells are pointing in the correct direction and one is in the wrong direction, what is the overall potential difference?
9
volts
View source
What are the key points to remember about batteries and potential difference?
A battery
consists
of
two
or more
cells
.
Cells
must be
connected
in the same direction.
Potential
difference
adds
up in
series
.
Incorrectly
oriented cells can
cancel
potential
difference.
