Connect positive cable of donor battery to battery of car being jumped. Then connect negative cable to negative battery post on the donor car and lastly to a ground point on the car needing the jump start, normally the engine. Do not connect to negative post of battery needing a jump start. Let donor car run for about 5 minutes and then attempt to start. The instant the engine starts reverse the procedure to disconnect the jumper cables.

How do jumping castles demonstrate newtons thrid law of motion?

Jumping castles demonstrate Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a person jumps on a jumping castle, they push down on the air inside the castle, causing it to push back with an equal force and propel the person upwards. This interaction between the force of the person jumping and the reaction from the castle's air illustrates Newton's third law of motion.
