Name & describe this.
Series circuit. Components connected one after another in series.
Name & describe this
Parallel circuits. They have components connected in parallel, on their own branches.
Name this device that measures current.
Ammeter
Name this instrument that is used to measure the amount of energy released by electrons (volts)
Voltmeter
The problem with circuit series.
If one of the components breaks, the whole circuit is broken and the current stops.
Parallel or series circuit? The current in each branch is the same but add together to make the total current of the circuit.
Parallel
Parallel or series circuit? The current is the same everywhere.
Series
If the first ammeter in this series read 3 amps? What would the other 2 read? If I added another component would they change?
3, yes-they would all lower.
In relation to the readings on the ammeters-True or False?
A2 + A3 = A1
A1 = A4
True
The amount of charge per second is called a....
Current
A battery produces a charge-True or False
False-The charge already exists and the battery just pushes it.
The push provided by a battery or a cell is called.....
The Potential Difference
