A C dry cell battery has a voltage of 1.5 volts. The amperage produced by the battery is dependant upon what the load current is of the connected device. The higher the load current the quicker the battery will discharge, shortening the life of the battery. Rechargeable C cells will have to be recharged at this point in time. Four cells in parallel will produce a total of 1.5 volts. Four cells in series will produce a voltage of 6 volts.

Why does foil give power to batteries to light a light bulb?
Aluminum foil does not give power to batteries to light a light bulb. The common batteries that we use in flashlights and portable electrical/electronic devices, like the "D" cells, "C" cells, "AA" and "AAA" cells, are made with a zinc can. This zinc outer container for the battery has two jobs. It acts as a housing to contain the electrolyte, and reacts with the electrolyte to create voltage. There isn't any aluminum involved. The actual chemical reactions involved in the generation of voltage in the zinc-carbon or zinc-manganese (the "alkaline") cell can by found by surfing the link to our friends at Wikipedia. They're down with all this. And you can be to.
Why are there no B batteries -- there are A AA AAA C D but no B?
The codes A and B were used for batteries providing voltage to portable vacuum tube devices. As battery powered vacuum tube devices were rapidly discontinued with the spread of the transistor in the 1960s, such devices are very very rare now, and due to lack of demand these battery sizes are no longer available. The B battery was typically rated from 45 to as high as 270 volts.
Are AAA batteries stronger or D batteries stronger?
With the same load current the AA will last longer that the AAA. This is due to the physical size of the cells. A C cell will last longer that a AA and a D cell will last longer that a C cell. In dry cells as the cells get larger the amp/hours increase.
How many D batteries does it take to make a 12V?
It takes eighth batteries. each battery, being AA, A , C,or D have 1.5v per cell. if you put them all in series; neg. - pos., neg - pos., and so on it will take eight D batteries to make 12 volts.
How many amps does a c battery give out?
Disposable C batteries are 1.5 volts (the rechargeable kind can vary). The number of amps they put out depends on the resistivity of the circuit they are attached to.
What voltage is a AA battery not effective?
AAA batteries are rated at 1.5V as are AA-C-D batteries. Once down to 1.3V or lower they are not much use,
List 4 different types of batteries?
Aa, aaa, c,d
Why are 9-volt batteries rectangular but AA batteries are circular?
Button batteries, AA, AAA, D and C batteries are a single cell. 9-volt batteries contain multiple cells to get a higher voltage and therefore are the shape they are. Open a 9-volt battery and you will see the cells inside - make sure you wash your hands afterwards though!
What kind of batteries does a 1985 Lewis galoob baby talk doll take?
4 double a's and 4 c's
How do you wire 4 6 volt batteries to make 12 volts?
Assuming the batteries are identical: Mark batteries A, B, C, D Group the batteries A and B, C and D. Join A+ to B-, Join C+ to D-. This puts the batteries into a series connection. You now have (2) 24 volt batteries. To place the batteries in parallel (ie: use all 4 batteries): Join A- to C-, Join B+ to D+ and use the common terminals A-C- as the combined negative terminal, Use the B+D+ pair as the combined positive terminal. A combination like this is known as a series parallel connection. join the positive and negative
Why do some items need 2 batteries?
Generally, it needs twice the voltage supplied by one battery. For example, a 2-cell flashlight using 2 of AA or C or D batteries is combining the voltage of 1.5 volts supplied by each cell to produce a total (average) of 3 volts to power a 3v bulb. The above example assumes the batteries are connected in series, or in line. If two batteries are connected in parallel (that is, head-to-head and tail-to-tail), the combination produces the same voltage as a single battery but can power a load for twice the time as would a single cell.
What kind of flashlights take c batteries?
Not very many flashlights use c batteries, but one example would be the 3C ProPolymer LED flashlight.It is Powered by 3 C alkaline batteries.
What size of batteries does a micro R/C heli require?
Micro R/C helicopters require batteries. Micro R/C helicopters require double A batteries. You will need plenty of batteries. http://www.ehow.com/how_6505592_control-micro-flyer-helicopter.html
How many amps in four C batteries in series?
C batteries use 1.5 volts. The number of amps depends on what device it is hooked up to. An average for four C batteries would be about 16 amps.
If 60 J of energy are available for every 15 C of charge what is the voltage?
4 volt
Can you use lithium batteries instead of alkaline batteries?
Careful Answer: SOMETIMES. But ALWAYS check the label of the lithium battery in question to make sure it is rated for "1.5v" before attempting to use it as a replacement for an alkaline battery. Explanation: Alkaline primary batteries have a nominal voltage of 1.5v per cell. Lithium primary ("primary"=disposable) batteries USUALLY have a nominal voltage of "3v" per cell. There are some Lithium primary cells, AA's for example, that have a nominal voltage of 1.5v per cell which makes them a suitable replacement for alkaline batteries. To complicate matters, however, there are rechargeable lithium-ion cells in the AA format which have a nominal voltage of 3.6v per cell, and more commonly there are "Lithium Phosphate" AA's which have a nominal voltage of 3.2v or 3.3v per cell. Using either of these as a replacement for alkaline batteries would be potentially destructive for both the batteries and the device you install them in.
How much voltage does a battery produce?
Depends on the battery but they are current sources as opposed to voltage sources Standard AA, AAA, C and D batteries all give 1.5 volts each, but rechargeable NiMH batteries are often 1.2 or 1.25 volts.
