A battery high rate discharge (load capacity) test is being performed on a 12-volt battery. Technician A says that a good battery should have a voltage reading higher than 9.6 volts while under load at the end of the 15-second test. Technician B says that a battery should be discharged (loaded to two times its CCA rating). which technician is correct

Starters rotate the engine by a ______________.

The engine will not start if ________________.

When measuring battery voltage, set the meterto read...

Which battery rating is used mostly when testing a battery to see if it is performing normally? (be careful!)

A standard for rating the ability of a vehicle battery to supply high current under cold operating conditions.

The placement of positive and negative battery terminals.

A certain minimum amount of parasitic current draw that is used by the vehicle's circuits to maintain memory function and monitor systems.

A type of lead-acid battery

A standard similar to CCA but that measures the battery's function at a higher temperature -32 F (0 C).

A standard 12-volt car battery consists of ____cells connected in series

All of the following are methods used to rate automotive battery capacity, except:

A (n) _____ battery typically has no removable cell covers, so you cannot adjust or test the fluid levels inside.

Which of the following is a type of rechargeable cell battery?

Which tool is commonly used to measure parasitic draw from the battery?

Performing a battery state-of-charge test with a (n) _____ will give a good indication of whether the battery needs to be charged or not

The higher the _____, the higher the percentage of acid in the electrolyte, which corresponds to a high battery state of charge.

The starter motor is mounted on the transmission or cylinder block in a position to engage a ______ around the outside edge of the engine flywheel, flex plate, or torque converter.

The ______ is typically a cylindrical device mounted on the starter motor that switches the high current flow required by the starter motor on and off and engages the starter drive with the ring gear

The _____ prevents the starter motor from being driven by the engine once the engine starts, which would spin the armature faster than it could handle

To change AC to DC, automotive alternators use a rectifier assembly consisting of _____ in a specific configuration

Batteries store electricity in chemical form

The sulfuric acid contained in batteries is highly corrosive and can also be very harmful to metal, painted surfaces, and skin

Reserve capacity is the time in minutes that a new fully charged battery at 80 (F) (27 C) will sypply a constant load of 25 amps without its voltage dropping below 10.5 volts for a 12-volt battery.

Installing a battery into a vehicle backward can instantly destroy on-board electronics

In some cases, It may be possible to use a 9-volt memory minder or memory saver to maintain the vehicle's memory while the vehicle battery is disconnected.

All vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission use a neutral safety switch or a similar device.

A diode bridge gets its name from two diodes in series bridged with a wire.
