Lead acid cells were invented in 1859 by the French Physicist Gaston Plante‚ and are the oldest types of rechargeable batteries. These types of batteries typically weigh at 5kg‚ but can range from half a kilogram to over 30 kilograms on the consumer market. Though their chemistry means a very low energy-to-weight and energy-to-volume ratio in comparison to other modern batteries‚ their ability to supply high surge currents means that the cells maintain a large power-to-weight ratio. This makes them

Study The researcher‚ as one of the consumers of the electricity‚ also experiences the power crisis. Due to different factors that results to sudden brownouts especially those in the province‚ the researcher came up with the study entitled “Potato Battery”. Two new sources are fruits and vegetables. These are organic and can easily be bought at farms and markets. One of these is the use of potato but not all fruits and vegetables are usable. Potato had been considered due to it’s high content of

Draw a diagram of the battery‚ label the flow of electrons. The flow of current (+) is opposite; draw this and note if toward or away from + terminal of the battery. The blue dots indicating the electrons move because there is a voltage across the battery in which the electrons flow away from the positive terminal

Group 2 Science Investigatory Project I Title: Potato Battery II Objective: We only need a potato‚ a couple nails and a piece of wire to make a potato battery. It’s a fun science project that helps show the way things work in a battery by using everyday items we see around the house. The goal is to learn more about electricity‚ and possibly a few new science terms along the way. III Materials: * Two Potatoes * Two short pieces of heavy copper wire * Two common galvanized nails

POTATO INTO BATTERY Abstract a.Purpose To lessen the consume of electric charge b. Procedure We insert copper and zinc electrodes in to the potato‚ close but not touching each other. We use Clip leads to connect our electrodes to the Multimeter to measure voltage between two electrodes or current passing through the multimeter. For this experiment we used a galvanized nail for our Zinc electrode. c. Result It did go well and the potato did give voltage to the equipment (clock) However‚ the

and unpredictable nature of the conventional chemical batteries‚ along with the frequent replacements that they require‚ has created an acute need for a reliable‚ longer-lasting and rugged source of energy. Moreover Radars‚ spacecrafts‚ interstellar probes and other advanced communication devices require much larger power than that can be met by conventional energy sources. The solution to long term energy source is the nuclear powered batteries which have a life span of few decades and can pack in

using more and more household batteries. The average person owns about two button batteries‚ ten normal (A‚ AA‚ AAA‚ C‚ D‚ 9V‚ etc.) batteries‚ and throws out about eight household batteries per year. A battery is an electrochemical device with the ability to convert chemical energy to electrical energy to provide power to electronic devices. Batteries contain heavy metals such as mercury‚ lead‚ cadmium‚ and nickel‚ which can contaminate the environment when batteries are improperly disposed of. When
