A group of students sets up an electric circuit with wires, a battery, and a light bulb. Why is their circuit called a direct circuit?(1 point)
Responses
The flow of electrons travels in one direction.
The flow of electrons travels in one direction.
The light bulb is directly connected to the battery.
The light bulb is directly connected to the battery.
The circuit is complete, so electrons can flow freely.
The circuit is complete, so electrons can flow freely.
The electrons flow back and forth through the circuit.
The electrons flow in one direction through the circuit.
The correct answer is "The flow of electrons travels in one direction."
The correct response is: The flow of electrons travels in one direction.
To determine why the circuit is called a direct circuit, we need to understand the flow of electrons. In a direct circuit, the flow of electrons travels in one direction, from the battery through the wires and the light bulb, and back to the battery. This means that the electrons do not flow back and forth through the circuit, but rather move steadily in one direction. Hence, the circuit is called a direct circuit.
