TASK 1 1 (ASSESSMENT CRITERIA 1.1) For a 12V battery there are 6 cells with 2V each. In series connection for a battery, its individual cells are connected with each other in such a way that the positive terminal is of a cell is connected with the next cell’s negative terminal or vice versa. To measure the Voltage across the battery provided, using a multimeter, I checked the voltage of each of the cells. Cell 1: 2.1V Cell 2: 2.1V Cell 3: 0.6V Cell 4: 1V Cell 5: 2.1V Cell 6: 2.1V Therefore, adding

components which are Kirchhoff’s Current Law and Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law. These two laws are collinearly related through its total summation being which is equal to 0, except that for Kirchhoff’s Current Law having its variables to be of currents flowing into and outward a node (fig.1), and for Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law having its variables in terms of the drops and rises of its voltages in a closed loop (fig. 2). ∑▒I_in +∑▒I_out =0 Figure 1: Kirchhoff’s Current Law ∑▒V=0 Figure 2: Kirchhoff’s

individual plug into the outlet, an electric current will flow to the device. It is the key component for the modern society everyone has today. Without this, our world is totally different. People continue to prosper the knowledge of producing electricity. As the result, inventions of electricity-producing products are made. Since its invention, the battery has become the most common power source for many household and industrial applications. A battery converts chemical energy to electrical energy

Nano technology in the automotive industry:- ABSTRACT What is Nanotechnology? Nanotechnology is the engineering of materials on the scale of 1 nanometer (nm) to 100 nm, a nanometer being 1 billionth of a meter. At this level, the basic physical laws governing macro objects undergo a drastic change. A macro particle is a cluster of atoms arranged together in random order. The formation of the structure is left to nature, and control over the properties of the material is difficult. Nanotechnology

diode is analogous to a check-valve, or one-way valve. A transistor is analogous to a valve in which a diaphragm controls a plunger that affects flow through another section of pipe. A water storage tank, if held at a height, is analogous to a battery. A water storage tank somewhere in the circuit, that needs to be filled before the circuit is completed (e.g., the inflow pipe is at the bottom of the tank, and the outflow pipe is at the top) can be thought of as a capacitor. 4. Why are both

electricity. Electricity is a general term encompassing a variety of phenomena resulting from the presence and flow of electric charge. These include many easily recognizable phenomena, such as lightning, static electricity, and the flow of electrical current in an electrical wire. In addition, electricity encompasses less familiar concepts such as the electromagnetic field and electromagnetic induction. The word is from the New Latin ēlectricus, "amber-like"coined in the year 1600 from the Greek ήλεκτρον (electron)

the article, though I hadn’t. If you are measuring voltage drops on individual loads and thusly looking for an open circuit through current movement then that is fine. However you do have to remember that the voltage drop has to be an actual “drop” from the original power applied (12V ish). “Subtracting the value you see at the input from what you saw across the battery terminals will tell you how much of your source voltage has been dropped before whatever is left appears at the load input” (Glassford
