Circuits

    Cards (6)

    • In a serial circuit, all components are connected end-to-end.
    • In a parallel circuit, there can be multiple paths for the current to flow along
    • A parallel circuit has two or more branches that connect to one another through a common junction called a node
    • The current is the same at every point in a series circuit
    • An open circuit has no complete pathway for electricity to flow through, so there is no current flowing around the circuit.
    • The symbol for a closed loop or circuit is a circle with a dot inside it
