Explain the observations on series and parallel circuits through written or verbal forms, sketches, ICT in a creative way
Series Circuit & Parallel Circuit
5.2
Series Circuit & Parallel Circuit
An electrical circuit is a complete circuit formed from connecting wires and electrical components that allow electric current to flow.
An electrical circuit consists of an electrical source, electrical components, connecting wires and a switch.
Electrical components can be connected in an electrical circuit with two types of arrangement:
Series circuit
Parallel circuit
Series circuit
A series circuit is a circuit that has
one path
for electrical energy to flow
All electrical components in a series circuit will
share an electrical current
The more bulbs are connected, the dimmer the light of the bulb
If one of the bulbs burns out, the other bulb does not light up
Series circuit is easy to install and the power source depletes slower
Parallel circuit
A parallel circuit is a circuit that has
two or more paths
for electrical energy to flow
In a parallel circuit,
the amount of electrical energy flows
through each path is the
same
The number of bulbs does not affect the brightness of the bulbs
If one of the bulbs burns out, the other bulb is still on
Parallel circuits are more difficult to install and the power source runs out faster
