Electrical Circuit

Front

What is a closed circuit?

Back

A closed circuit is a complete and uninterrupted path for electricity to flow, meaning there are no breaks.

Front

What is an insulator?

Back

An insulator is a material that does not allow electricity to flow through it easily, preventing the flow of electric current.

Front

True or False: The labeling of electricity in volts is random.

Back

False. The labeling of electricity in volts is based on standardized measurements.

Front

What is a parallel circuit?

Back

A parallel circuit is a type of electrical circuit where there are multiple paths or loops for electricity to travel.

Front

What is an open circuit?

Back

An open circuit is a broken or incomplete path for electricity, preventing the flow of electric current.

Front

What is a conductor?

Back

A conductor is a material that allows electricity to flow through it easily.

Front

What happens in a series circuit?

Back

In a series circuit, all components are connected in a single path, so the same current flows through all of them.

Front

What is voltage?

Back

Voltage is the measure of electric potential difference between two points in a circuit.

Front

What is current?

Back

Current is the flow of electric charge in a circuit, measured in amperes (A).

Front

What is resistance?

Back

Resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric current, measured in ohms (Ω).
