Quelle tension et quelle capacité obtiendrezvous en connectant deux batteries de 12 volts, 20 ampèreheures en parallèle?

  1. A24 volts, 40 ampèreheures
  2. B12 volts, 40 ampèreheures
  3. C6 volts, 80 ampèreheures
  4. D24 volts, 20 ampèreheures

Correct answer: B — 12 volts, 40 ampèreheures. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

Connecting two batteries side by side in parallel keeps the voltage the same as a single unit, so you still have 12 volts, but it doubles the total energy storage, giving you 40 ampere-hours of capacity. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
