What moves in inside the wires of a circuit?

electrons

protons

neutrons

What does a power supply do in a circuit?

Electrons

Friction

Energy

When components are all connected into a loop, we call this a series circuit. It does not matter where the components are as long as they are connected in a single loop.

null

6

Which of these pictures matches the given circuit?

The same
Different

1

How are ammeters connected?

In series

Not in series

We do not have to connect thins in the same loop. Instead, we can connect things in their own loops.

null

Here the bulb, resistor, and motor are all connected in different loops, so they are not in series. If they are not in the same loop, we say they are connected in parallel.

Here are three components connected in parallel. It is like 3 loops being laid on top of each other.

Sort these circuits into series and parallel circuits

Series
Parallel

Current is the same everywhere in a series circuit. In a parallel circuit, where the loops overlap, the currents add together/

Deduce the ammeter reading for each of the circuits.

Remember to write the unit in your answer, like 0.15A.

If no reading, please write "no reading", or "0".

Now we will look at potential difference in series and parallel circuits.

Here is a series circuit. The voltmeters are wired in parallel over the components, but it is still considered a series circuit,

null

The cell provides 3 V and in total, the bulb using 1V and the resistor using 2V, they use 3 V.
