Questions about NiMH/NiCD Batteries
I was just wondering:
1. Why is there a voltage drop after the NiMH/NiCD cell becomes full?
2. Does this happen with LiPos? Why and why not?
3. Why does a battery produce heat after its charged full or while its charging?
I know these are more science questions, but I think there should be some smart people in here that know.
What does this have to do with racing? I am a high level science teacher. I want to stir interest in high schools about this fantastic hobby, but first, I want to find a "link" into the curriculum I am currently teaching.
This is a fantastic hobby, and I know many of us would like more young people to join this hobby with us. I am just doing my fair share .
Thank you for your time.
