7J Electricity

Which best describes a simple series circuit?

• Electricity flows along one pathway.
• The flow of electricity comes from the switch.
• Electricity flows along many pathways.
• The flow of electricity comes from the light bulb.

What will happen if one light bulb is removed from this circuit?

• The other bulbs will go out.
• The other bulbs will get brighter.
• The other bulbs will get dimmer.
• The battery will become stronger.

Which best describes a parallel circuit?

• Electricity flows along one pathway.
• The flow of electricity comes from more than one source.
• Electricity flows along more than one pathway.
• The flow of electricity comes from more than 1 load.

The picture shows an electrical circuit. This circuit is a series circuit because: 

• It has 3 light bulbs.
• The same current flows through all three light bulbs.
• It uses a single battery.
• The electrical current is divided between the three light bulbs.

What is a circuit?

• A pathway that electricity flows in. It has a load, wire, and a taco
• A pathway that protons flow in. It has a load, wire, and a power source.
• A pathway that electricity flows in. It has a load, wire, and a power source.
• A pathway that electricity flows in. It has a load and wire.

A pathway for electricity to travel is called___________

• current
• static electrcity
• circuit
• circle

A continuous flow of electricity is called_____________

• series
• circuit
• static
• current

What kind of circuit is this?

• series
• parallel

What is a switch's function in a circuit?

• to make the current hotter or colder
• turn on and off the flow of current
• the pathway that current flows
• to add more power to the circuit
