FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Circuit

Back

Closed loop

Answer explanation

A circuit is a closed loop. Unlike open loops, a closed loop has a continuous flow.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is an electrical circuit?

Back

Closed loop where electrons can flow

Answer explanation

An electrical circuit is defined as a closed loop where electrons can flow. This allows for the continuous movement of electric current, unlike an open loop which interrupts the flow.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Example of a circuit:

Back

Nascar racetrack

Answer explanation

The F1 Circuit is a specific type of racing circuit designed for Formula 1 cars, making it a clear example of a circuit. In contrast, a water pipe, open door, and broken wire do not represent circuits in the same context.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Which of the following is an example of an electrical circuit?

Back

Simple DC Circuit

Answer explanation

A Simple DC Circuit is a basic example of an electrical circuit, consisting of a power source, conductors, and a load. The other options do not represent electrical circuits.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a DC Electrical Circuit?

Back

An electrical circuit where the electric charge flows in only one constant direction.

Answer explanation

A DC electrical circuit is defined by the flow of electric charge in one constant direction, distinguishing it from AC circuits where the flow periodically reverses. Thus, the correct choice accurately describes DC circuits.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is an AC Electrical Circuit?

Back

A closed loop where electrons periodically reverse direction.

Answer explanation

An AC electrical circuit is characterized by a closed loop where electrons periodically reverse direction, unlike DC circuits where the flow is constant in one direction.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Electrical circuit schematic

Back

A graphical representation of an electrical circuit with standardized symbols

Answer explanation

An electrical circuit schematic is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit using standardized symbols. This allows for easy understanding and communication of circuit designs, unlike physical models or lists of components.
