Q

What is the approximate discharge voltage produced by one cell of a wet type nickelcadmium battery at 75% of charge?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Typical cell voltage range for wet (vented) nickel-cadmium batteries under discharge • Difference between nominal voltage of a Ni-Cd cell and the voltage of a lead-acid cell • How state of charge (75%) affects the discharge voltage of a Ni-Cd cell

💭 Think About

• First, recall the common nominal voltage rating used when a single nickel-cadmium cell is specified in battery datasheets or manufacturer labels. • Compare each answer choice to what you know about standard single-cell voltages for Ni-Cd vs. lead-acid cells and multi-cell battery units. • Ask yourself which of the answer choices looks more like the voltage of several cells in series rather than a single cell.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the typical nominal voltage for one Ni-Cd cell under normal discharge conditions. • Eliminate any options that clearly match lead-acid cell voltage rather than Ni-Cd. • Check which options are too high for a single cell, indicating they likely represent multiple cells in series.
