Which component is best represented by a symbol with multiple alternating long and short lines in a circuit diagram?
A battery or a combination of cells
In circuit diagrams a single cell is drawn as one long line and one short line.
Several such pairs placed side by side — alternating long and short lines — show a battery, that is a combination of cells.
Bulbs and resistors have different symbols.
Hence, the answer is a battery or a combination of cells.
