How do you know positive and negative terminals?
Look for a + by the positive terminal and a - by the negative terminal, or red for positive, black for negative. Some batteries have the positive terminal protruding and the negative terminal flat. Or you can get a meter that will tell you which is which,
What happens when you inadvertanly crossed the positive battery terminal from a negative to a positive and a positive to a negative.?
What happens when you inadvertently crossed the positive battery terminal from a negative to a positive and a positive to a negative.?Read more: What_happens_when_you_inadvertanly_crossed_the_positive_battery_terminal_from_a_negative_to_a_positive_and_a_positive_to_a_negative.
Why is there a plus and minus of batteries?
plus is the positive terminal (cathode) minus is the negative terminal (anode)
Is Voltage with respect to negative terminal taken as positive or negative?
im not sure how clearly your phrasing your question, but when dealing with circuits potential difference (voltage) is max, and at the positive terminal its zero. it decreases as you go around the circuit. hope this helps
Does an ammeter have a positive and negative terminal?
Yes, an ammeter typically has positive and negative terminals, which are used to indicate the direction of current flow. When connecting an ammeter in a circuit, the positive terminal should be connected to the more positive point in the circuit, while the negative terminal should be connected to the more negative point. This ensures accurate readings of the current flowing through the circuit. However, some ammeters can measure current in either direction without damage, depending on their design.
