Circuit Review

If you replace the paper clip with a plastic spoon, what happens?

• The bulb doesn't light

• The bulb is dimmer

• The wires get hot

• There is no change

Why are resistors important in some circuits?

• Becuase they slow down the flow of electrons so the circuit doesn't over heat

• Because they protect against loss of charg

• Because they complete the circuit

• Because they control the flow of energy up and down

Q1. What is the difference between a Series Circuit and a Parallel Circuit?

• A) Series Circuit

• B) Parallel Circuit

Will the lightbulb light up?

• Yes because it is an open circuit

• No because it is an open circuit

• Yes because it is a closed circuit

• No because it is a closed circuit

What happens if the switch is closed in a circuit?

• The circuit remains open and the current flows

• The circuit becomes closed and the current flows

• The circuit remains closed and the current stops flowing

• The circuit becomes open and the current stops flowing

What type of circuit is shown?

• Parallel

• Series

• Open
