A terminal potential difference is the potential difference appearing across the terminals of a voltage source, such as a battery or a generator, which varies according to the load supplied.
When the battery or generator is off load (i.e. no load is connected to it), the terminal potential difference is equal to the electromotive force of that battery or generator.
The terminal potential difference tends to decrease as the load current increases, due to a corresponding increase in the internal voltage drop of the battery or generator.

What is the positive terminal of a diode known as?
It is called the positive + terminal or post, just like you list. Electrons flow for the negative - to the + terminal contrary to popular belief.Another AnswerAs electrons flow through the external circuit from anode (negative terminal) to the cathode (positive terminal) , then the answer is 'cathode'.
What does common mean on a light switch?
On a single pole single throw there is no common terminal. On a single pole double throw it is the terminal that is common to both the top and bottom terminals. The "hot" wire is connected to the common terminal so that when the switch is in the up position that terminal becomes energized and there will be no no voltage on the bottom terminal. When the switch is in the down position the bottom terminal becomes energized and there will be no voltage on the top terminal. In relays thisis known as a C form configuration.
What is a open cicuit?
An open circuit is a situation when there is no electrical path from the positive terminal to the negative terminal (in case of DC) or from the live terminal to ground (in case of AC)
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.

Does the electrons go from the battery plus to - or is it the other way around?
Yes. The electrons, which are negatively charged, are pushed away from the negative terminal, which has excess electrons, and they and flow to the positive terminal where there are less electrons.
