Circuitos en serie y paralelo.

What is the definition of an electric circuit?

• A system that only generates light and heat.

• A collection of elements that, when connected in a closed loop, allow electric current to flow.

• A device that stores electrical energy for later use.

• A single wire that carries electricity from one point to another.

Electric circuits are capable of transforming electrical energy into which of the following?

• Only light and sound.

• Only heat and movement.

• Light, heat, sound, or movement.

• Only chemical energy.

En un circuito en serie si un foco se desconecta todos los otros focos se apagan.

• Cierto

• Falso

En un circuito en paralelo la corriente corre por dos extremos.

• Cierto

• Falso

Which component of an electric circuit is the energy source that enables electrons to move through the circuit?

• The conductor

• The switch

• The generator or source

• The receiver

What happens in a series circuit if one of its components, such as a light bulb, fails or disconnects?

• The current will find an alternative path, and the other components will continue to work.

• Only the failed component will stop working, and the rest will remain active.

• All other components in the circuit will also stop working.

• The circuit will automatically switch to a parallel configuration.
