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?
The electrons flow back and forth through the circuit.
The light bulb is directly connected to the battery.
The flow of electrons travels in one direction.
The circuit is complete, so electrons can flow freely.
The flow of electrons travels in one direction.
How does a flashlight illustrate the Law of Conservation of Energy?
It is an electric circuit through which electrical energy flows.
Potential chemical energy in the battery is converted to electrical energy, which is converted to light energy and heat energy.
All of the electrical energy leaving the battery will travel through the circuit and return to the battery.
Potential energy in the battery will be converted to kinetic energy.
Potential chemical energy in the battery is converted to electrical energy, which is converted to light energy and heat energy.
Which is an example of a load in an electric circuit?
9-volt battery
speaker
wiring
on-off lever
