Answer is Wrong!
Answer is Right!
The correct answer is D. all above will occur.
When a battery is charged at a higher rate than it is designed to handle, the following can happen:
- Excessive gassing: The battery will produce more gas than it can safely handle, which can lead to the battery exploding.
- Temperature rise: The battery will heat up more than it is designed to, which can damage the battery and shorten its lifespan.
- Bulging and buckling of plates: The plates inside the battery can expand and buckle, which can cause the battery to leak or even explode.
It is important to charge batteries at the correct rate to avoid these problems. If you are not sure what the correct charging rate is for your battery, consult the manufacturer’s instructions.
