 WHAT ARE ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS

Electric circuit, path for transmitting

electric current. 
An electric circuit includes a device that
gives energy to the charged particles
constituting the current, such as a battery or
a generator; devices that use current, such
as lamps, electric motors, or computers;
and the connecting wires or transmission
lines

SERIES AND
PARALLEL
CIRCUITS

In a series circuit, the same number of

current flows through all the components
placed in it. On the other hand, in parallel
circuits, the components are placed in
parallel with each other due to which the
circuit splits the current flow.

CURRENT •A parallel circuit has two or more

paths for current to flow through.
AND •Voltage is the same across each

component of the parallel circuit. 
•The sum of the currents through each

PARALLEL path is equal to the total current that

flows from the source.

EFFECT OF
RESISTANCE
•The resistance to the flow of charge in an
electric circuit is analogous to the frictional
effects between water and the pipe surfaces as
well as the resistance offered by obstacles that
are present in its path.
•It is this resistance that hinders the water flow
and reduces both its flow rate and its drift speed.

CONCLUSION
Electricity is the flow of electrical power or charge.
Electricity is both a basic part of nature and one of the
most widely used forms of energy.
