On the battery its the post that has a minus sign next to it and the leads from the battery will typically be black instead of red. Another thing to do is to go to your local auto parts store and ask them to show you. They will get a kick out of doing so and you'll not have to ask again.

∙ 13y agoThe battery is under the hood on the front passenger side corner directly behind the front grille. It is a large square or rectangular unit that says BATTERY on it. It will have two very large 50,000 volt cables bolted to the battery posts on the top of the battery. The RED wire is the power wire which goes directly to the solenoid that sits on the side of the starter motor, which is way down underneath the engine. The black cable is the ground wire and it goes directly to a bolt that is connected to the frame of the vehicle or the engine which is connected to the frame.

∙ 12y agoThe (Red) positive post is larger than the (Black) negative post and on almost every battery I have even see the + & - are embossed on the battery. The red, positive battery cable will go from the battery to the starter. The black, negative cable will connect to ground.

How do you replace battery in 2011 Grand Cherokee?
Disconnect the battery negative first, then disconnect the positive. Look at the base of the battery for bolts... you'll have to remove these to unbolt the battery from the bracket. Once this is done, pull up and the battery should come out. Place the new battery. Reinstall the brackets. Reconnect the positive first then the negative.

What happens when a capacitor connected across a battery for a long time?
For a long time, The capacitor will be charged to the voltage of the DC battery, the positive side of the capacitor touching the positive terminal of the battery. Not much DC current will conduct, except for some tiny leakage current due to imperfection of the cap. The battery will be drained eventually.
What does the negative terminal of a battery have?
The negative terminal of a battery has a - sign and positive terminal has a + sign.
Does the positive end of a battery go to the positive or negative end of the terminal?
The positive end of a battery goes to the positive end of the terminal. In retro spec, the negative end of a battery goes to the negative end of the terminal.

Where is negative battery terminal on a citroen?
The negative battery terminal is on the battery. They don't have a wire coming from it like they do the positive. For charging purposes, the engine block acts as the battery ground. When disconnecting the negative at the battery, the negative terminal usually has a black wire and the positive has a red.

How you can indicate the current direction in the network?
If we go for the diagramatic representation then battery positive is represented by the long terminal and battery negative is represented by the short terminal then the direction of the current is given by an arrow from positive terminal to negative terminal (Therotically electrons flow from negative to positive but we represent current flow from positive to negative. This is the sign convention )
Why do you not get battery symbol on your laptop sometimes after you on power supply in your laptop made by Toshiba model no A200?
Note: When interconnecting A200 batteries (cells), they must be identical in voltage and amp rating! Batteries may be connected in series. The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery; the positive terminal of the second is connected to the negative of the third, and so on. The voltage of the assembled battery is the sum of the individual batteries. The batteries are connected: + to - to + to - to + to -, etc. The capacity of the battery is unchanged. Batteries may also be connected in parallel. The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the positive terminal of the second battery, the positive terminal of the second is connected to the positive of the third; the negative terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery, the negative terminal of the second is connected to the negative of the third and so on. The batteries are connected: + to + to + and - to - to -. In this configuration, the capacity is the sum of the individual batteries and voltage is unchanged.
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.
When removing the battery leads from the terminals you do what first?
Disconnect the negative - terminal first, then the positive + terminal. Unfasten the battery hold down clamp. When reinstalling the terminal connections connect the positive terminal first.
