Definition: A secondary cell can be recharged or restored. The chemical reaction that occurs on discharge may be reversed by forcing a current through the battery in the opposite direction. This charging current must be supplied from another source, which can be a generator or a power supply. Figure 1 shows one type of battery charger used for ...
DOE Explains...Batteries. Batteries and similar devices accept, store, and release electricity on demand. Batteries use chemistry, in the form of chemical potential, to store energy, just like many other everyday energy sources. For example, logs and oxygen both store energy in their chemical bonds until burning converts some of that chemical ...
