Definition
This is the difference in electrical energy between 2 points in a circuit.
What is voltage?
This is the unit used to measure voltage.
What is a volt?
These are the 3 basic parts in a circuit.
What is an energy source, a load, and wire/pathway?
There are more of these in a parallel than in a series circuit
What is a path for current to take
This is the degree to which a substance opposes the flow of electric current through it.
What is resistance?
This is the symbol for resistance.
What is R?
If one goes out..
What is they all go out
If one goes out...
What is the rest stay on
This the amount of electric charge that passes by a point in an electric circuit at a given time interval.
What is electric current?
This is the symbol for current.
What is I?
This is a model used by engineers and designers where symbols are used designing and analyzing an electric circuit.
What is a circuit diagram?
Device used to measure voltage
What is a voltmeter
A package of chemical cells that converts chemical energy into electrical energy that is stored in electrons.
What is a Battery?
This is the unit used to measure current.
What is an ampere/amp (A)?
draw a series circuit on a piece of paper using three lights
Picture
Draw a parallel circuit using 4 lights and 3 switches
picture
This is any material that can slow down current flow.
What is a resistor?
This is the unit used to measure resistance.
What is an ohm (Ω)?
What is an open circuit?
If your flashlight on your phone goes out and breaks, would your phone still work? EXPLAIN WHY
because your phone contains parallel circuits, the screen is still able to turn on even if the flashlight is dead
