Correct option is B
Batteries in Parallel:
· When batteries are connected in parallel, their positive terminals are connected together, and their negative terminals are connected together.
· This configuration keeps the voltage the same as that of a single battery but increases the total available current capacity by the sum of the individual battery capacities.
Why Increase Current Capacity
· Connecting batteries in parallel allows the system to supply a higher current to the load, which can be crucial for powering devices that require more current.
· This also allows the batteries to share the load, reducing the discharge rate of each individual battery and potentially prolonging the overall life of the battery bank.
