Components of a circuit
POWER SOURCES
CELL: supplies electrical energy to the rest of the circuit. cells have a positive terminal and a negative terminal
-
LOAD DEVICES
-
-
-
RESISTOR: a load device thet opposes the flow of the electric current. Converts electrical energy to heat energy
-
CONTROL DEVICES
-
TWO WAY SWITCH: they have two positions. When we pressed them, they change from one position to the other. They are also called changeover switch.
PUSH SWITCH: they open and close the circuit but only while pressing the button. These devices can either br open(NO) or closed (NC) depending on what they do before they are pressed. NOswitches are also called push-to-make switches and NC switches can be called push-to-break switchws
-
Types of circuits
Series circuits: all the components are connected one after the other. This way,all the current flows throuh all devices. There is only one possible path.
Parallel circuits: The load devices are connected on different branches of wire. There are several possible paths.
Series-parallel combination circuits: These circuits contain devices connected in seies and parallel.
