What happens when you put the negative terminal on the positive terminal and the positive terminal on the negative terminal on a Mercedes-Benz s500?
It could cause the battery to explode. It can also destroy some of the electronics in the vehicle. In other words this would be a very expensive mistake.
What would not be needed in the conducting loop in order to light a bulb - a positive terminal of battery - a switch - a negative terminal of battery - or a bulb?
The switch is not needed.
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.
What would happen to a dry cell or battery if the positive and negative terminal were shorted?
It could blow up the battery.
95 T100 has an added cable from the positive battery terminal to chassis When the cable broke it drained the battery any info will help also the negative Battery terminal is to chassis.?
There is no way that the positive battery terminal was ever connected to the chassis. This would be a dead short and would fry the battery. Negative to chassis is correct, but positive to chassis, no way. That positive cable goes somewhere else.
Why is it necessary that an electron returns to the positive terminal of the battery each time another electron leaves the negative terminal?
Electrons are negatively charged, and so are attracted to the positive end of a battery and repelled by the negative end. So when the battery is hooked up to something that lets the electrons flow through it, they flow from negative to positive.
Should you connect the pos or neg terminal first when replacing a car battery?
Assuming the vehicle has a negative earth You connect the positive lead first The reasoning When the positive lead is fitted first, if you dropped a spanner across the battery negative terminal to the car body all you would do is make the circuit. If you connect the Negative lead first, and you dropped a spanner across the positive battery terminal to the car body you would then have a dead short
What would cause weak spark on a 1986 d100 dodge?
I have the same problem with a '82 Poweram 150 - It was suggested to me that it could be the engine is improperly connected to the negative terminal on the battery. Take jumper cables and ground one side to the negative terminal, the other clipped to the engine near the distributor. Might do the trick.

Why would a 1998 bonnneville not start the battery is new the starter is only a year old?
there may be a ground wire from the negative battery terminal that isn't making a connection
Is a zinc anode acts the terminal?
No. It seems Zinc would always act as the negative terminal. Anode and Cathode are the terms used when we connect an external electrical source to the device. If positive terminal of an external battery is connected to the electrode then that electrode is named as ANODE. If negative terminal is connected then it is named as CATHODE. In case of chargable device, while discharging say P acts as negative terminal. Then while charging this negative terminal would be the anode. So if the device is a chargable one and Zn acts as negative terminal while delivering current to the external load, then the same zn would acts as anode while charging.
What happens when you connect car battery positive to negative terminal?
Very Dangerous........it would be a dead short. andcouldcause a fire or explosion.
Why would ac turn on by itself and not shut off until you undo negative battery terminal?
A short to ground somewhere in the electrical system.
