🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between cell voltage and overall battery voltage in a lead-acid battery • Typical nominal voltage per cell for a lead-acid battery • How series connection of cells adds voltage

💭 Think About

• First, recall the usual voltage of one lead-acid cell. What is that nominal value? • If you connect cells in series, how do their voltages combine to reach a total of 24 volts? • Divide the total battery voltage by the voltage of one cell. Which option matches that number of cells?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm the standard nominal voltage per lead-acid cell (don’t guess—think of a common car battery and how many volts it has). • Make sure you’re thinking about cells in series, not parallel, when adding voltages. • After you do the division, match your result to the closest exact choice in the list.
