My daughter was comparing voltaic piles. One pile had 6 pennies and 6 dimes
The other penny had 6 pennies and 6 quarters
When hooked up to the voltmeter they had approximately the same reading. Is that correct?
The project also requires future applications. I believe they would light up a red LED light but that is it. What would a future application be? Thank you

- Project Question: We did the batteries that make cents. We used pennies and dimes for one voltaic pile and quarters and pennies for another voltaic pile. Using a voltmeter they both got approximately the same results. An average of .07. I am just trying to make sure that is correct. They both would have approximately the same volts?
