POTATO 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 removed the shell of a broken AA battery for our Zinc electrode. (Make sure to test your multimeter by connecting its Positive and Negative

Using Fruits ( Lemon‚ Orange ) As Battery Purpose To demonstrate how an electrical current can be generated using citrus fruits (such as lemons or limes) that is strong enough to power a small light bulb. Additional information Batteries are devices that store chemical energy and convert it to electrical energy. Consisting of one or more voltaic cells‚ batteries come in various sizes and forms and are integrated into most electronic and portable devices. Electrical current is the flow

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

CHAPTER - 1 INTRODUCTION TO BATTERIES An electrical battery is one or more electrochemical cells that convert stored chemical energy into electrical energy. Since the invention of the first battery in 1800 by Alessandro Volta‚ batteries have become a common power source for many household and industrial applications. Batteries are represented symbolically as follows Fig. 1(a) Symbolic view Fig.1(b)conventional battery Electrons flow from the negative terminal towards

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

There are several factors to consider when deciding whether to rent or buy a home. In our case study‚ Beth and Jon Linton are considering the critical decision of buying or renting at Stedman Place in Newton‚ which is a western suburb of Boston‚ Massachusetts. The timing of this decision is important‚ as the decision is being made in July of 2006‚ before the housing market downturn. The case gives insight into the couple’s decision-making process‚ and the pros and cons of buying versus renting are

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
