Question

Total potential difference across the combination of three cells becomes maximum when:
Options
A two cells are connected in parallel and the third in series with the combination
B all three cells are connected in series
Correct Answer
C all three cells are connected in parallel
D two cells are connected in series and the third in parallel with the combination
