What is an electric circuit?

An electric circuit is a closed loop or pathway that allows electric current to flow from a voltage source to a load and back.

What are the two main types of electric circuits?

The two main types of electric circuits are series circuits and parallel circuits.

What is a series circuit?

A series circuit is one where components are connected end-to-end in a single path, so the same current flows through all components.

8

What is a parallel circuit?

A parallel circuit is one where components are connected across common points or junctions, so each component has its own path for current.

What is Ohm's Law?

Ohm's Law states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage (V) across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance (R) of the conductor, expressed as I=VRI = \frac{V}{R}.

What is electrical resistance?

Electrical resistance is a measure of the opposition to the flow of electric current, typically measured in ohms (Ω).
