Study Notes
Electric Circuits
- An electric cell provides energy to a circuit, allowing it to function.
- Copper is commonly used as a conductor in electric circuits due to its high conductivity and low resistance.
Control and Safety
- A switch primarily acts as a controlling device, allowing the flow of electric current to be turned on or off in a circuit.
- Insulators, such as rubber or plastic, prevent the flow of electric current, protecting users from electrical shock and reducing the risk of short circuits.
Circuit Functionality
- When an electric bulb is connected to a complete circuit, it glows, indicating that the circuit is functioning properly and electric current is flowing.
