Not very accurate, but I hope you can get the idea.
Most battery manufacturers provide such graphics on their Web sites.

How are solar cells and batteries similar in function?
Solar cells and batteries are similar in that they both produce electricity.
What is the total voltage if a 12v battery 6v battery and 2.5v battery are connected in parallel?
There is no answer to this question. It could be anywhere between 2.5V and 12V. If you connected them in series the answer would be 20.5V, in parallel the higher voltage battery will discharge into the lower rated cells, the resultant voltage is dependent upon the internal resistance of each of the batteries. In practice you wouldn't do this, so it's either a mistake or trick question. www.powerinspired.co.uk
What sources of power are used to make a robot work?
Robots can be powered by a variety of sources, depending on their size, purpose, and mobility requirements. Common sources of power for robots include electricity from batteries or direct current (DC) power supplies, hydraulics using pressurized fluid, and pneumatics using compressed air or gas. Some robots may also use internal combustion engines or renewable energy sources such as solar power.
How many 100amp hour batteries do you need to connect to a 240v inverter to produce the same output as a 5kva generator for a period of 2 hours?
I am assuming that your batteries are 12V, also that your (12V - 240V) inverter is rated for 5KW output and it is about 95% efficient. Most big inverters are between 85% - 97%. 5KW from a 12V battery would mean a current draw of about 416A, but since the inverter is only 95% efficient the actual current would be closer to 438A. If you draw 438A for two hours, that's 876AH. Theoretically then, you would need 9 100AH batteries. The problem is that at very high current draw, all batteries AH capacity is less than the rating. You only get the whole 100AH if the current draw is 10A (1/10th the AH rating) or less. Because of that, you would probably need 10 to 12 batteries. If you used 10 batteries, each would source about 44A during full load. You would have to use very large bus bars to equalize the current draw from battery to battery. If the interconnects are too small, the batteries closer to the inverter would be forced to supply more than their equal share of the total current draw, and the ones further away less. It's generally problematic to parallel large numbers of batteries in this way. Don't even consider it unless the batteries are identical (same manufacturer, same part number, same age, same date code). The problem gets even worse when you try to recharge the pack. Suppose you pump 50A of charging current into 10 batteries. Is each battery receiving 5A? Or is one battery with a shorted cell drawing all 50 (and is about to explode...)? There's no way to tell. Even if all batteries were receiving equal charge, it would take your 50A charger almost 40 hours to recharge 10 - 100AH batteries. Ouch. Large industrial UPS systems get around this by using huge 2V cells in series. You can buy 6 - 2V, 1000AH cells, connect them in series to form a 12V, 1000AH battery and avoid all the hassles of parallelling 12V, 100AH batteries. They are not cheap, though. If you go to a battery manufacturer's website, they publish graphs for their batteries that show AH derating versus current draw. All this assumes, of course, that your load is really 5KW. If you are running a smaller load, then obviously your battery count would go down. Finally, we are talking extremely large current and power levels here. If you are not fully qualified to understand and design high current wiring systems, don't try this! 400A of current through a bad connection can do serious damage! Unless you enjoy being sprayed with molten metal from a disintegrating connection, know what you're doing or get a qualified individual to help with/inspect your work. IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS. If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any workANDalways use an electricians test meter having metal-tipped probes(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
What materials are needed for making solar panels?
This is an excellent website that will teach you everything you need to know about building solar panels: http://www.mdpub.com/SolarPanel/. Solar Panels are made up of solar cells, that convert sun energy into usable electricity. Normally the cells charge a bank of batteries that will power an inverter, which converts the DC into AC. You can now plug in devices and appliances you wish to power from your solar panels.
How many series connected cells does a typical 12V storage battery contain?
Twelve volt batteries contain a series of 6 cells in the series.
How much does a D battery weigh?
Typical alkaline weight according to a quick catalogue check is 135g, with rechargeable D-cells weighing betwen 105-160g Typical alkaline flashlight batteries weigh around 180 grams. Rechargeable batteries can weigh more.
How much are lithium polymer batteries?
Lithium-ion polymer batteries, polymer lithium ion, or more commonly lithium polymer batteries (abbreviated Li-poly, Li-Pol, LiPo, LIP, PLI or LiP) are rechargeable (secondary cell) batteries. LiPo batteries are usually composed of several identical secondary cells in parallel to increase the discharge current capability.
What is the process in which the cell plate is being completed?
In the cells of lead acid batteries, during discharge, both the positive and negative plates become lead(II) sulfate (PbSO4).
How are solar cells and batteries similar in function?
Solar cells and batteries are similar in that they both produce electricity.
How are solar cells and batteries similar functions?
Solar cells and batteries are similar in that they both produce electricity.
Do batteries have cells?
Yes
Can you describe how batteries are sources of voltage?
The number of cells in a battery determine the battery's voltage. Different types of batteries have different cell voltages. The cell voltage is dependant on the reactive metals used. A typical car battery will have six cells. Because a typical cell voltage has a source voltage of approximately 2.0 volts, this makes a car battery produce a voltage of 12 volts.
What typical plant cells have that typical animal cells do not?
Plant cells have a large vacuole, a cell wall and chloroplasts which a typical animal cell doesn't have.
Do typical plant cells have that typical animal cells do not?
Plant cells have a large vacuole, a cell wall and chloroplasts which a typical animal cell doesn't have.
What are cells in electricity?
(probably) batteries.
What is a battery cycle?
a deep cycle battery i a battery that you can charge and discharge over and over without harming the cells in the battery unlike a normal battery . deep cycle batteries are normally used in boats
