Mechanics (different vehicle systems)
Explanation
The **battery** of a vehicle is an essential component of the **electrical system**. Its main function is to provide the necessary energy to start the engine and power other systems of the vehicle, such as the lights and the horn.
- The **standard voltage** of a car battery is **12 volts**. This is the amount of volts that is stored and used to power the vehicle.
- The vehicle's **charging circuit**, which includes the alternator, is responsible for keeping the battery charged while the engine is running. The alternator generates electricity and stores it in the battery, ensuring that there is always enough energy available.
Therefore, the correct answer is that the voltage of the current stored in a car battery is **12 volts**.
