Electricity And magnetism Flashcards
1
Q
An electrical device that slows the flow of charge in a circuit
A
Resistor
2
Q
An unintended and undesired path Connecting one part to another
A
Short circuit
3
Q
A circuit in which current follows a single path. Each device that is wired in series circuit shares a path to and from the voltage source.
A
Series circuit
4
Q
A circuit in which current follows more than on path. Each device to hat is wired in parallel circuit has its own path to and from the voltage source.
A
Parallel circuit
5
Q
A close path through which charge can flow.
A
Circuit
