Questions and Answers

Explain the difference between a series circuit and a parallel circuit.

In a series circuit, components are connected in a single loop, and the current flows through each one in order. If one component stops working, the circuit is broken. In a parallel circuit, components are connected in multiple pathways, allowing current to take different routes, ensuring that if one component stops working, the others can still function.

What are the three main parts of an atom and their charges?

Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have a negative charge.

Why is it crucial for components in a series circuit to function properly?

If one component stops working in a series circuit, the entire circuit is broken, and the flow of electricity stops.
