Understanding Electrical Circuits

What are the four main components of a simple electric circuit?

• A generator, a fuse, a wire, and a motor
• A battery, a light bulb, a switch, and a resistor
• A solar panel, a battery, a light bulb, and a wire
• An energy source, a load, a conductor, and a switch

How does electricity impact our daily lives at home?

• It is only used for lighting
• It powers various appliances and devices
• It is not used at all
• It only works in the workplace

Which of the following is NOT a component of a simple electric circuit?

• A switch
• A fuse
• A conductor
• A load

Which component of a simple electric circuit is responsible for allowing electricity to flow?

• The switch
• The load
• The conductor
• The energy source

What does current electricity flow through?

• Open paths
• Electrical circuits
• Insulators
• Batteries only

What happens when a switch is closed in a circuit?

• Electricity stops flowing
• Electricity starts flowing
• The energy source is disconnected
• The load turns off

What role does an energy source play in an electrical circuit?

• It connects the components
• It controls the flow of electricity
• It converts energy
• It provides the energy for the circuit

Which of the following statements about batteries is true?

• Batteries do not store energy
• Batteries have a positive and negative terminal
• Batteries can only be used in cars
• Batteries have only one terminal

How does a switch function in an electric circuit?

• It converts energy
• It opens or closes the circuit
• It generates electricity
• It stores energy

What type of material is a conductor in an electric circuit?

• Rubber
• Copper
• Wood
• Plastic
