What Does Battery Mean?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Battery was a term originally used to describe a row of cannons.  When electric batteries were first developed, they also were collections of electric cells arranged into a larger battery of cells.  The name stuck and hence we call electrochemical cells a 'battery', even when there is only one.
