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)
How do you use scr as a diode?
scr is basically a three terminal device can be used as diode by leaving one terminal

Why is there a difference in the number of alleles for hemophilia and redgreen colorblindness between males and females?
There is a difference in the number of alleles for hemophilia and red-green colorblindness, because when a carrier of protanomaly has a child with a deuteranomalic man. Denoting the normal vision alleles by P and D and the anomalous by p and d, the carrier is PD pD and the man is Pd. The daughter is either PD Pd or pD Pd. Suppose she is pD Pd. Thanks...
How many atoms are present in 0.375 mol of Pd atoms?
0.375 mole Pd (6.022 X 10^23/1 mole Pd) = 2.26 X 10^23 atoms of Pd
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.
What is the meaning of Pd in periodic table?
Pd stands for Palladium,,an uncommon element.
