Why should the negative terminal be removed before working on near instruments and electronic circuits?
Khushwant786
Static electricity may build up and discharge through the circuits you are working on. This may damage them. Removing the ground cable, removes the discharge path to ground.

In automotive electrical circuits current is considered to flow from where to where?
In an automotive electrical circuit, current is considered to flow from negative to positive in that circuit. Electrons leave the negative terminal of the battery, flow through any complete circuits, and return to the positive terminal of the battery.
What is a resistor What does it do in a circuit?
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that limits the current flowing in electrical or electronic circuits.
Is Voltage with respect to negative terminal taken as positive or negative?
im not sure how clearly your phrasing your question, but when dealing with circuits potential difference (voltage) is max, and at the positive terminal its zero. it decreases as you go around the circuit. hope this helps
What does the negative terminal of a battery have?
The negative terminal of a battery has a - sign and positive terminal has a + sign.
How do you know positive and negative terminals?
Look for a + by the positive terminal and a - by the negative terminal, or red for positive, black for negative. Some batteries have the positive terminal protruding and the negative terminal flat. Or you can get a meter that will tell you which is which,
Where does the negative battery terminal go on the starter of a 1986 Monte Carlo?
The negative terminal does not go to the starter on a negative ground system. The negative terminal goes to ground.
What the function of polarized electrolytic capacitor?
Electrolytic capacitors are used for power filter, decoupling, signal coupling and time constant setting, DC blocking, etc. Polarized electrolytic capacitors usually play a role in power supply circuits or intermediate frequency and low frequency circuits for power supply filtering, decoupling, signal coupling, time constant setting, and DC blocking. Generally electrolytic capacitors cannot be used in AC power circuits. When used as filter capacitors in DC power circuits, its anode (positive) should be connected to the positive terminal of the power supply voltage, and the cathode (negative) should be connected to the negative terminal of the power supply voltage. Otherwise it will damage the capacitor. We're JYH HSU(JEC) Electronics Ltd (or Dongguan Zhixu Electronic Co., Ltd.), an electronic components manufacturer.

How can you convert electronic energy to electrical energy?
If, by electronic energy, you mean electrons then you don't convert it- that's what it is. Electricity is the flow of electrons from a negative terminal to a positive. In a wire it is delocalised electrons which are free to move
What do you call the electrode connected to negative terminal of a cell?
The negative terminal is called the anode
How do you make a cheap physics working model on electric circuits?
take a battery or cell,two wires, a small bulb.connect the wires with cell,one on positive terminal and second on negative terminal and other sides of wires with the bulb.the bulb will glow
Is the negative terminal the ground?
yes the negative terminal is the ground. also it is the black lead that goes to it
Do electrons flow from the positive to the negative terminal of a wet cell?
Electrons have a negative charge. For that reason, electrons will always flow in the opposite direction of the current, which flows from positive to negative. Electrons will therefore move from a negative terminal to a positive terminal when we look at the load on a cell. Within the cell, the electrons will flow from the positive terminal to the negative terminal.
