The Russian Civil War. After the overthrow of the Provisional Government on 7th November, 1917, the All-Russian Congress of Soviets met and handed over power to the Soviet Council of People's Commissars.
A voltmeter is used to measure potentials as shown in Figure 1. The voltmeter has two clips that are colored red and black. When the red clip is connected to the anode and the black clip is connected to the cathode, a positive voltage is detected as shown in Figure 1. If the clips are backwards, a negative voltage is detected. In order to practice using the voltmeter, you can measure the potential of a closed battery. Turn on the meter and if it is not set to voltage push the + button once or twice. 1) Measure the potential difference of a AA (1.5 V) battery.
Over time, these deposits will cause a 200 amp-hour battery to act more like a 100 amp-hour battery, and battery life will be considerably shortened. Once fully charged, batteries should be held at a considerably lower voltage to maintain their charge - typically 13.2 to 13.4 volts.
