How can you tell which is positive and which is negative on a speaker hookup?
Depending on colours of course black is usually negative and the other colour (generally red but depends) is positive. Get a D-cell Battery. Now get two pieces of speaker wire. hold one wire on the positive terminal of the battery and hold the other on the negative side of the battery. touch the wires to the positive and negative posts on the speaker. if the cone moves out ward the positive and negative are correct if it moves inward then the positive and negative are reversed (out of phase.) this simple test will allow you to see which terminal is which.

When charging a battery is is negative to positive or negative to negative?
positive to positive
A battery has a difference in potential energy between the positive terminal and negative terminal which units express this difference in energy?
That's a difference in electrical potential, not potential energy.It's described in units of "volts".
When you connect the positive to the negative and the negative to the positive does the battery dies?
If you connect the positive and the negative end of a battery directly with a cable, (1) you'll get dangerously high currents, and (2) the battery will quickly run out of energy. The battery itself might also get damaged, due to the high currents.
What could happen if you are charging your battery and put the negative on the positive and positive on the negative?
It could explode, getting battery acid all over you and anyone else nearby.
What does the negative terminal of a battery have?
The negative terminal of a battery has a - sign and positive terminal has a + sign.
Does the positive end of a battery go to the positive or negative end of the terminal?
The positive end of a battery goes to the positive end of the terminal. In retro spec, the negative end of a battery goes to the negative end of the terminal.
What is the difference between a positive terminal and negative terminal of a battery?
The positive + terminal is slightly larger.
Where is negative battery terminal on a citroen?
The negative battery terminal is on the battery. They don't have a wire coming from it like they do the positive. For charging purposes, the engine block acts as the battery ground. When disconnecting the negative at the battery, the negative terminal usually has a black wire and the positive has a red.
How many terminal does a battery have?
Two. The positive terminal, and the negative.
How do you run your power wire at battery with oldmobile alero 99?
Red, positive + cable to Positive + battery terminal. Black, negative - cable to Negative - battery terminal.
What is a positive terminal on a battery?
There are 2 battery terminals. A positive or hot and a negative or ground. The positive is slightly larger than the negative.
How you can indicate the current direction in the network?
If we go for the diagramatic representation then battery positive is represented by the long terminal and battery negative is represented by the short terminal then the direction of the current is given by an arrow from positive terminal to negative terminal (Therotically electrons flow from negative to positive but we represent current flow from positive to negative. This is the sign convention )
Why do you not get battery symbol on your laptop sometimes after you on power supply in your laptop made by Toshiba model no A200?
Note: When interconnecting A200 batteries (cells), they must be identical in voltage and amp rating! Batteries may be connected in series. The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery; the positive terminal of the second is connected to the negative of the third, and so on. The voltage of the assembled battery is the sum of the individual batteries. The batteries are connected: + to - to + to - to + to -, etc. The capacity of the battery is unchanged. Batteries may also be connected in parallel. The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the positive terminal of the second battery, the positive terminal of the second is connected to the positive of the third; the negative terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery, the negative terminal of the second is connected to the negative of the third and so on. The batteries are connected: + to + to + and - to - to -. In this configuration, the capacity is the sum of the individual batteries and voltage is unchanged.
When an ammeter is connected in a circuit which terminal of the battery must be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter?
The positive terminal of the battery would be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter. The load would then be connected between the two negative terminals, positive side of the load being connected to the negative side of the ammeter.
On a car battery which terminal is positive which is negative?
Positive is either red or has a "+" symbol.
When removing the battery leads from the terminals you do what first?
Disconnect the negative - terminal first, then the positive + terminal. Unfasten the battery hold down clamp. When reinstalling the terminal connections connect the positive terminal first.
