There will be negative and positive markings on the batteries like AA, AAA, C, or D. You will find the markings and insert the batteries in the electric device.
Don't worry about further details; we will discuss how you will find out which side of the batteries is positive and which is negative. Plus, how you should insert the batteries inside any electronic device.
How do batteries go in a flashlight?
As we have said above, batteries come with negative and positive markings. You will find those markings and then insert the batteries inside the flashlight. If it is hard to find the markings, then there is another way to know the charge on the battery's side.
The slightly raised side of the batteries has a positive charge on it. The negative charge will be on the other side, and you will find a flat metal plate. These are facts about every battery if you don't find the marking on them.
Now let's discuss the process that will help you to insert the batteries in the flashlight in the right way:
Opposite charges to produce current.
Now you have to insert the battery in the flashlight so that the negative charge will be against the positive charge of the flashlight. Yes, the flashlight will also have markings; according to the, you will have to insert your batteries.
The negative charge on the battery will go against the positive charge of the flashlight. Otherwise, no current will be produced, and your flashlight won't work.
Find the marking on the flashlight.
How would you know about the positive and negative sides of the flashlight? Well, the spring in the flashlight will have a negative charge, and the other side will have a positive charge.
Every flashlight will have a different space for the batteries. You might find the minus sign on the cover. Else you will find out the sides this way.
Always remember the negative side of your battery will go against the positive side the battery.
Now insert the batteries.
The last step is to slide the cover of the battery's space and then look for the negative and positive sides. If the negative sign is on the cover, the positive side is inside the flashlight if you have a simple flashing. Modern flashlights might have a little different and compact space for the batteries.
Well, the mechanism of inserting the batteries would be the same. The negative charge of the batteries will go against the positive charge of the flashlight.
The side of the battery that has a little bump will go against the flat metal side of the battery. This might help you to do the job with a little convenience and in an easier way.
Which side of the battery goes for the spring side?
We have been mentioning the same fact about batteries till now again and again that the negative side of the batteries will go against the positive side of the flashlight.
The batteries will have a little raised side that has a positive marking. The flat metal plate side has a negative marking. Now the negative marking will go against the positive side of the flashlight.
The Spring side has a positive charge on it.
One thing you should know about the flashlight is that the spring side has a negative charge. So, the positive side of the battery, the raised one, will go against the spring. This is the same process for every type of battery. If you don't find the markings on the flashlight, then the spring has the positive side. You can insert the batteries correctly if you know the charge on them.
The flat metal side has a negative charge on it.
The spring side of the battery has a positive charge, which means the flat metal side of the battery has a negative charge on it. The raised side of the battery will go against the flat metal side of the device.
Which end of the battery is positive?
Every battery will have a negative and a positive charge. You will have to insert the batteries in the device so that the negative charge of the battery will go against the positive charge of the device.
This is the only way through which your device would work. The negative and positive charges will produce current.
Every battery has two terminals.
Every battery has two terminals and you have to find out the negative charge on the battery, and the other side will be the positive side. The flat metal side has a negative charge on it. The slightly raised side of the battery has a positive side.
Yes, all the batteries have the same and positive negative markings on them. These charges will help you to insert the batteries in the right way.
Charge on each side.
The positive side of the batteries, the raised one, will go against the flat plate side of the device. The flat metal side of the device has a negative charge. Therefore, the positive side will go against the negative side.
The flat plate of the device will have a positive charge, and the flat metal side of the battery will be against it.
Final Words:
Now you know everything about the markings on the batteries and the flashlight. Do you know how you have to insert the batteries in the flashlight or any other electrical device? If you don't insert the batteries correctly, the device will not work. The current will not be produced. Therefore, you must work on the markings of both the batteries and the device.
