1
Q
Electric Circuit
A
A closed path which electrical charges flow powered by an energy source
2
Q
Series
A
Components that are placed in a path that allows charge to flow from on to another in a single path
3
Q
Parallel
A
Charge flows along multiple paths
4
Q
Potential Difference
A
The difference in electrical potential energy per unit charge between two points in a circuit
(V)
5
Q
EMF
A
The energy supplied from a battery
6
Q
Potential difference in series
A
Vtotal= V1+V2+V3…
7
Q
Potential difference in parallel
A
Vtotal = V1=V2=V3…
8
Q
