A battery snap is a kind of connector, used on certain batteries.
Popular 9v batteries have terminals on them like a 'press stud'. They are polarized, one connection is like a claw and the other like a button. This make sure that the connection only fits one way round or on the correct terminals, preventing reverse polarity damage. Small batteries like the PP3, have the two connectors on one clip, or board. Larger batteries will have the connectors separate, one on each wire.

∙ 6y agoA battery snap (battery clip) is designed to clip on to the two terminals on a 9 volt PP3 battery. What it does is to provide 9 volts DC (direct current) to the circuit it is connected to.

What are elements of a circuit?
A simple circuit consists of a source of electro motive force ( EMF or voltage V ) This could be a battery,dynamo or solar cell. The circuit should do something, like light a lamp. For the lamp to glow there must be a flow of electrons called an electric current measure in Amperes (I). For the current to flow the circuit must form a closed loop, like a daisy chain. A switch is a device that breaks this loop and controls the state of the circuit. Closed circuit, switch closed, = lamp on Open circuit, switch not closed = lamp off
What is the electric current from a battery?
A direct current is obtained from a connection to a battery.
Meaning or definition of voltage in a parallel circuit?
Voltage is the electrical potential that is produced by a given source (ie, a battery or a generator). The voltage is not changed by the type or number of loads on a circuit. A voltage regulator and/or transformer may change the voltage within a perticular load, but cannot change the complete circuit voltage.
How you could use a wire and a battery to create a manetic field?
Any current will produce a magnetic field. If you let a current pass through the wire, you got your magnetic field.Note: If you connect the wire directly to the battery, without any resistance, you'll most likely destroy the battery, due to a short circuit.
What is the function of the spring in the torchlight?
If you're talking about the large spring inside the battery compartment - it's to hold the batteries securely against the contacts that form the circuit.
What does a battery snap do?
A battery snap in electronics is what you connect a battery to. The battery snap then sends the electricity in the battery to the rest of the circuit. It's that simple.
What is a battery snap used for?
The function of a battery snap is to stop the current from the battery from flowing whenever you want to, and so that its safer.
What is the purpose of the battery in the circuit?
The purpose of the battery in a circuit is to wive energy to the circuit
What jobs dose a battery do in the circuit?
The purpose of the battery in a circuit is to wive energy to the circuit
How does one play Snap Circuit?
One plays snap circuit by electric system which allows one to build electronic circuits and devices. This game comes with Elenco Electronics snap circuits SC-300.
If you have a circuit consisting of a battery and a wire What two factors determine the amount of current in the circuit?
The voltage of the battery, and the resistance of the circuit (including the resistance of the wire and the internal resistance of the battery).
Can you bend a circuit board?
no you cannot if you try to bend it it will snap
Snap circuit whistle chip?

What job does the battery in a circuit?
To provide power for the circuit.
Why does a circuit stop working when you remove the battery?
The battery is the power source of the circuit. It supplies current to the circuit and the circuit is simply a path for the current to follow. When you remove the current (battery), the path still exists but there is no current going through it.
What is the purpose of the batteries in the circuit?
The purpose of the battery in a circuit is to wive energy to the circuit
Is a car battery a circuit?
Hi, there. A battery is a power supply, a source of potential difference which drives current. In itself, a battery is not a circuit, but if you attach it to a load (a resistance), then a current will form and a circuit is made!
