Battery

Batter`s today are one of the best inventions in the world. Battery`s changed all of our life’s. We no longer have to stay in one spot and have a cable plugged into our devices. Know we can go anywhere in the world and have working devices in our hands. Know, let me tell you the history of battery`s.


There are quite many batteries in the world let me name you some of them .


9 volt battery

Triple A battery

Double A battery

D battery

3 volt battery

So there you have the the first few batteries. Of course there are lots more batteries out there in the world. Benjamin Franklin named the battery. A battery is something that stores electrical cells. There are only two types of batteries. First you have the primary batteries. Primary batteries are batteries that you can only use once. Second you have the secondary batteries.
Secondary batteries are rechargeable batteries that you can use multiple times.

This is how a battery works. The chemical energy in the battery gets headed than the chemical energy gets warmed and then it turns into electrical energy. When the chemical energy is fully headed it turns into positive and negative electrons. When the battery is filled with positive and the negative electrons the battery gets full power. The positive and the negative electrons make like a small bridge to the negative and the positive sides of the batteries. When the battery is plugged into a device there should be a metal piece on both sides of the battery. Finally when the battery is plugged in the positive and the negative the electrons go to the negative and positive sides of the battery and then they release and go through out the machine and give out power. A battery can die quickly or slowly it just depends on how much voltage is in the battery. A battery dies because the machine sucks out the electrons and when the electrons get less and less the battery starts losing power and then it finally dies. So than when they are dead you can recharge them if they are not rechargeable than you can just trash them . There is still acid left in a battery when it dies . The acid left in battery is still good for a new one . Many people collect the acid but normally a mechanic does it because the acid gets even stronger and it can be life threatening . That is the life of a battery .





You must be careful when handling a battery because every battery contains chemical acid. The chemical acid which is inside of a battery can leak and mess up your device and brake it. It is also bad to touch it allot because if you get it in your eyes it can sometimes blind you and even make you ill.
There you have a little something to keep in mind about the world’s first few batteries in the world.



Here is a little money saving tip . Inside of a 9 volt battery are smaller batteries that can fit into any device that uses Triple A batteries . Inside of a Double A battery are small round batteries that fit in any device that uses 3 volt batteries.
