Question

A battery consists of five dry cells connected in series. If the voltage developed by each cell is 1.5 V, the total voltage developed by the battery is

Answer 1

7.5 V

Step-by-step explanation:

A series circuit is a circuit in which the various components are placed one after another offering only one path for the current. When several cells are connected in series, the total voltage will be the sum of the voltages of each cell, ie 5 cells of 1.5V or 7.5Volts.

Answer 2

The right answer is 7.5V.
