Electricity and direct current circuits
OPEN CIRCUITS AND CLOSED. SHORT CIRCUITS. Are controlled by switches that open and closed the circuit when they are pressed
open
closed
open circuit and position of the one-way switch, open ciscuits status
closed circuit and position of the one way switch closed
short circuits: In a electrical circuit, a short circuit occurs when the electrical current is transported by the wires without
ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS.COMPONENTS is a series of interconnected

Control devices: devices that regulate the circuit
one-way switch
two-way switch
CONDUCTORS
WIRE. The component that the electric current flows through.
CONTROL DEVICES
PUSH SWITCH. Open and close the circuit but only while the button is pushed.
TWO-WAY SWITCH. Have two positions.
ONE-WAY SWITCH. Open or close the circuit when they are pressed.
COMPONENTS OF A CIRCUIT
POWER SOURCES
BATTERY. A grouped set of cells
CELL. Supplies electrical energy to the rest of the circuit
LOAD DEVICES
MOTOR. Converts electrical energy to kinetic energy
BUZZER. Converts electrical energy to sound energy.
LAMP. Converts electrical energy to light energy.
RESISTOR. A load device that opposes the flow of the electric current.
CONDUCTORS AND INSULATORS. Materialsthat let electric current flow through them, are called
conductors
Copper
Plastic
Silver
madera
Gold
Cardboard
Aluminium
ELECTRICITY.ELECTRICAL ENERGY. Al materials are made up of very small particles called atoms.
ELECTRICITY. Is a form of energy that lets negatively charged particles move from one atom yo another.
ELECTRIC CURRENT. Is the flow of electrons from one atom to another inside a conductive material.
