9. Figure 10.4: Diagram of the inside of a flashlight with a plastic case. When the switch is on, the metal strip makes contact with the metal ring around the bulb. This makes a continuous circuit through the metal strip on the inside of the casing to the spring and then to the negative terminal of the battery. The positive end of the battery is in contact with the filament of the bulb.

Basic circuit for an electric vehicle. The charger feeds the batteries, which can then supply power to the motor to move the car. The speed and power of the motor are regulated by the controller, which is in turn controlled by the accelerator.
