why voltages are added when batteries are connected in series?

Answer Posted / asif.k64@hotmail.com

When batteries are connected in series the flow of
electrons, (current), is the same anywhere in the circuit.
But the potential difference of all the batteries gets added
together.

Hence, batteries in series produce a voltage equal to the
number of batteries multiplied by the voltage of each
individual battery.

For example,
If two batteries of 12v each connected in series will give
you an output voltage of 24V.
