Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
If you connect four 1.5V batteries in series and then connect another group of two sets of three batteries in parallel, what is the total voltage?
💡 Hint: Calculate series first then think about how parallel works.
You have three cells in parallel, each providing 2A of current. If you add another two cells in series that provide 3V, calculate the total output current and potential voltage.
💡 Hint: Combine the current from parallel cells and see how series affects voltage.
