Electric Circuits

Question 1

Series DC

Answer 1

One path, one missing component disrupts the circuit

Question 2

Parallel circuit

Answer 2

Current multiple paths, one missing component doesn’t disrupt the circuit

Question 3

DC current

Answer 3

Current does not change direction

Question 4

AC current

Answer 4

Alternates direction at a high rate

Question 5

Closed circuit

Answer 5

Free to flow

Question 6

Open circuit

Answer 6

Break prevents flow

Question 7

Short circuit

Answer 7

No resistance in a circuit

Question 8

Electrical current

Answer 8

Flow of electrons, negative to positive

Question 9

Current

Answer 9

Measured in amps, remains constant through the circuit,

simplified as the rate of current flow

Question 10

Electrical resistance

Answer 10

The opposite of amps
resistance is the opposition to current flow determined by the physical structure and composition of material
resistors are built to resistance in a circuit

Question 11

Wattage rating

Answer 11

Heat dissipation capability of a resistor is measured in watts

Question 12

Ohms law

Answer 12

The circuit current is directly proportional to the applied voltage, current is inversely proportional to circuit resistance
I = current amps 
E = Voltage volts
R = resistance ohms
P = power  watts
