This could mean that either the battery is installed incorrectly or it is the wrong size battery.

Check to make sure that the correct terminals are on the same ends of the m\battery as the original. Different cars have terminals on different sides depending on which side of the car the battery is located. There are also different size batteries having one that is too tall or too wide can make fit a problem.

When purchasing a battery (typical set up at any of the Mart stores) There is a catalog of sorts wghere you can look up your car make, model, year, and engine type / size. this will give you the part number of the correctly configured battery.

Another reason is maybe you put it in the car backwards (hey even the best of us can make a mistake).

If none of the above is a possibility then maybe the cable is under the battery check your installation methods to ensure that nothing is being trapped or pinched.

Does a acorn that falls from a tree reach its terminal velocity?

No, an acorn is too small and light to reach its terminal velocity when falling from a tree. Terminal velocity is the maximum constant speed that an object reaches when the drag force equals the force of gravity, and the small size and weight of an acorn mean that it doesn't experience enough air resistance to reach this terminal velocity.

Were is a good place to ground a car battery?

Grounding a Vehicle BatteryUsually, manufacturers attach the ground cable from the battery to the engine block. I don't change that unless some other factor makes using the manufacturer's ground location impossible, and then I route the ground cable to a manifold bolt within reach of the cable.
