List at least ten electrical devices that you have used today. 2.In some strings of Christmas lights, none of the lights work if one light is burned out. What is a possible explanation for this? 3.A big feast is being prepared for several people in a home. The cooks are using a turkey roaster, the oven, an electric mixer, the blender, and the toaster. Every light is on and so is the refrigerator. All at once the power in the kitchen goes out. What is an explanation for this, and how can it be corrected?

An electric circuit is a set of electrical components connected such that they provide one or more complete paths for the movement of charges. The conducting path produced when a light bulb is connected across the battery’s terminals is called a closed circuit. Without a complete path, there is no charge flow and therefore no current. This is called an open circuit. Chapter 16

You can use a switch to open and close a circuit. Schematic diagrams are used to represent circuits. A schematic diagram is a graphical representation of a circuit that uses lines to represent wires and different symbols to represent components. Each element used in a piece of electrical equipment is represented by a symbol that reflects the element’s construction or function. Chapter 16

Copyright © by Holt, Rinehart and Winston. All rights reserved. ResourcesChapter menu Section 3 Circuits Series and Parallel Circuits Series circuits have a single path for current. When appliances or other devices are connected in a series circuit, they form a single pathway for charges to flow. In a series circuit, the components of a circuit form a single path for current. The current in each device is the same. The resistances may be different. The voltage across each device in a series circuit can be different. If one element along the path in a series circuit is removed, the circuit will not work. Chapter 16

A parallel circuit is a circuit in which all of the components are connected to each other side by side. The voltage across each device is the same. The current in each device does not have to be the same. A break in any one path in a parallel circuit does not interrupt the flow of electric charge in the other paths. Chapter 16

ResourcesChapter menu Series and Parallel When bulbs are connected in series, charges must pass through both light bulbs to complete the circuit. When devices are connected in parallel, charges have more than one path to follow. The circuit can be complete even if one light bulb burns out. Section 3 Circuits Chapter 16

ResourcesChapter menu Section 3 Circuits Electric Power and Electrical Energy Electrical energy is the energy that is associated with charged particles because of their positions. Electric power is the rate at which electrical energy is used in a circuit. The rate at which electrical work is done is called electric power. Chapter 16 The SI unit for power is the watt (W). 1 W = 1 A  1 V

ResourcesChapter menu Section 3 Circuits Electric Power and Electrical Energy, continued If you combine the electric power equation above with the equation V = IR, the power lost, or dissipated, by a resistor can be calculated. Chapter 16 Electric companies measure energy consumed in kilowatt-hours. 1 kWh = 3.6  10 6 J.

ResourcesChapter menu Section 3 Circuits Fuses and Circuit Breakers When electrical wires carry more than a safe level of current, the circuit is said to be overloaded. A short circuit can happen if a wire’s insulation wears down, two wires may touch, creating an alternative pathway for current. Fuses melt to prevent circuit overloads. A fuse an electrical device that contains a metal strip that melts when current in the circuit becomes too great. Chapter 16

A circuit breaker a switch that opens a circuit automatically when the current exceeds a certain value. The circuit breaker acts as a switch. Unlike fuses, circuit breakers can be reset by turning the switch back on. Chapter 16
