Science 6B Flashcards
What is a conductor?
A conductor is a material that has a low resistance to electricity and will allow it to easily pass through them
What is a circuit?
An electric circuit includes a device that gives energy to the charged particles constituting the current
what is a insulator?
Insulators are materials that have a high resistance to electricity and won’t let it pass through it easily
E.g (wood and plastic)
what is a series circuit?
A series circuit is one loop; all electrons in that loop form one current.
what is a parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit is when all the devices are connected using parallel connections, the circuit is referred to as a parallel circuit. In a parallel circuit, each device is placed in its own separate branch. The presence of branch lines means that there are multiple pathways by which charge can traverse the external circuit.
What is a simple circuit?
