Electric current and energy around a circuit

Electric current

A complete pathway that allows electrons to flow

Energy around a circuit # 1

Chemical energy in the battery separates positive and negative charges and gives electrons on the negative terminal electric potential energy

Energy around a circuit number two

Electrons move across the wire as they are repelled by the negative terminal and attract to the positive terminal

Energy around a circuit number three

Potential energy is transformed into other forms of energy. When is this past through a load
