A battery is a rechargeable power source that stores electrical energy chemically and releases it as electrical energy when needed. It is used in automobiles to start the engine, power lighting systems, and supply electronic components. Batteries are typically manufactured using lead-acid technology.Structure and Operating PrincipleA battery consists of positive and negative plates, an electrolyte (a mixture of sulfuric acid and pure water), a case, terminals, and a cover. Chemical energy is con
