Share:
- 1The current capacity is multiplied by the number of opposing cells.
- 2Ohm's Law no longer applies as the circuit becomes non-linear.
- 3The total resistance becomes zero, leading to a 'short' in the circuit.
- 4The total voltage is calculated by taking the algebraic sum, meaning opposing voltages are subtracted from the total.✓
Correct answer
The total voltage is calculated by taking the algebraic sum, meaning opposing voltages are subtracted from the total.
