Electric batteries are connected in parallel when all the terminals of the same sign are connected together. A cable leaves from this common point and supplies a current to the circuit.
A group of batteries in parallel produces the same voltage as one battery. The four 1.5 V batteries in the picture on the left produce a 1.5 V voltage.
The advantage of this arrangement is that the voltage is maintained stable for a longer time than with only one battery.
The resistance of the batteries in the circuit is also smaller than in the arrangement with only one battery.
Change the parameters at the bottom of the visual and observe the properties of this arrangement of batteries.
