first poster already did. Your batteries are wired in parallel, numbnuts. They aren't wired in series (in which case they would read 3 volts)
This is a question that would have been answered by the first section of the most introductory book on electronics for children that you can find.
It's a stupid question, and there's already a thread for stupid questions so that tardposters won't have to post hundreds of individual threads just for crap like this.
you channers are pissing me off. Do the fricking breadboard wiring on tinkercad in 3 minutes and take a fricking screenshot or shut the frick up. I don't give a shit of what you blabber with your loud mouths.
Look man, if you can't figure this out yourself then maybe choose another hobby.
Hope you don't accidentally short out some lithium batteries and sit there wondering why the wires melted instead of giving you 8 volts.
>d-d-derrrrr ur won't do my work for me ur pissing me off
go back to plebbit and include me in the screen shot so we can laugh at your downs-syndrome, down voted ass

Jannies are trannies, sure. Mostly, I blame the boomers. If they could just shut up and/or die, at most, gay homosexuals like op would get nothing but shitposts as replies to their moronation.
The definition of a voltage source is a device which maintains a fixed p.d across its output terminals. So when you wire two (non ideal) voltage sources with the same value in parallel, they each maintain the same p.d across their terminals (meaning it remains 1.5v) but only half of the current is sourced from each one. This has the effect of reducing their equivalent series resistance (as each on is paralleled it halves) and each battery lasts roughly twice as long as it would on its own.
im not the op and understand parallel and series connections but i just connected two batteries in series and connected each side to my multimeter and measured the amps and they clearly double... so, is that not supposed to happen?
The amps doubled because the volts doubled and we havent run into discharge limits yet. The batteries will run out of juice in half the time of the parallel setup
ok. i measured the same two batteries in parallel and the amps halved. why does this happen then?
also if i do this on image, just connecting the top and bottom to metal i understand that the batteries are supposed to "balance"(same charge same voltage) or was that just a bad youtube explanantion? i thought the pluses and minuses had to connect which will happen if i were to connect a wire inbetween the metal on the picture and a circuit to be made for current to flow but maybe i have to look up battery diagrams...
>measured the amps
you are doing this wrong. amps have to be measured over a draw you can't just slap +/- on the batteries. the thing that draws sets the amps, eg. a toaster oven vs a LED light strip. each battery has an amp/h (hour) capacity and that capacity doubles because (duh) twice as much battery.
also I know those are metal ffs but measuring off of random garbage that is 10x the mass of one battery is fricking max moron mode.
so angry. i specifically wanted to measure short-circuit amps here and just wanted to know why the amps halve... also i dont think size of metal matters as anything it should lead to less resistance...
All moronic explanations. Imagine you have two buckets of water. When you connect them in series you double the pressure (and Voltage is pressure). The total amount of water that can flow through the pipes remains the same, it's just the pressure that changes.
If you connect 2 buckets in parallel, the pressure will be that of one bucket, but you double the capacity (volume).
google series vs. parallel voltage
can anybody actually answer a question

You put them parallel rather than in series, so the voltage is not cumulative. Like the first poster said.
next time consider the SQTDDTOT
can you guys get on tinkercad and do it though? Also hard mode all the cabling must be done on the breadboard
>I-I somehow need to get out of t-this without losing f-face
>arbitrary rules
Option fields have been utilized where appropriate.
Frick off, you've been given the answer multiple times. Now go do 5 minutes of research and and learn why it's the answer.
I leaned this in grade 5 when we took “batteries and bulbs”
I wonder what they’re teaching now, if anything.

whats plebbit?
you know how PrepHole is the butthole of the internet? well it's the other end.
the bonus hole?

Don’t blame boomers.
Battery operated stuff is a scam anyway.
You’re welcome.
We get it, lil buddy. People who are smarter than you make you feel inadequate. It's okay, really. We're not offended. Pic related: it's you.
Maybe an illustration will help
putting batteries together is homosexualry
put the batteries in the microwave for 10 minutes to get them charged up to 3v
>tfw you used to have to boil batteries to get them to 3v
you kids have no idea
but how do we fit the shed in?

theres literal zoomies like me spamming sheds left and right, what the frick of a vet are you fellow broccoli head

I'm at a loss
hey anons, if I put 4 resistors in a circuit what will the pd be?
What are you 8 years old?

While I did overreact I was right in the sense you still haven't done the cabling on tinkercad this whole time
>making an account
yeah no
Because it's obvious how you fricked up and we didn't need to spoonfeed you?
im not the op and understand parallel and series connections but i just connected two batteries in series and connected each side to my multimeter and measured the amps and they clearly double... so, is that not supposed to happen?

You're either about 7 years old or the worst troll ever.
no it was just a bad youtube video 🙂 thank god cause it didnt make sense

Voltage can only ever be an even number
