4.3 Voltage
and Current Capacity of Cells
The e.m.f.
of a cell depends on the materials of its electrodes and the electrolyte. On
the other hand, the amount of current an electric cell can produce in a given
span of time depends on the quality of electrodes and the electrolyte it is
made of.
The table below
shows the e.m.f. of some electric cells and the materials they are made of.

Trabajo en una oficina donde el horario incluye pausa para almorzar, y siempre me costaba calcular cuánto tiempo estaba realmente en jornada. Buscando una solución me crucé con calculadoradehoras.io, y me sorprendió lo útil que es. Solo necesitas poner tus horarios y listo: te dice el total descontando la pausa. Ideal para quien quiere llevar un control realista del tiempo.
