Series and Parallel

 

This is a circuit with one light bulb, a switch that turns the circuit on and off, and two batteries.

SERIES is when light bulbs are put in a row and are in the SAME LOOP. 

PARALLEL is when light bulbs are connected to the SAME BATTERY, but have their OWN LOOPS.

Types of Circuits

A complete circuit is a properly working circuit. It requires a SOURCE of energy, something to USE the energy, and something to CARRY the energy like a wire.

Field Lines

 

FIELDS are created by both ELECTRIC CHARGES and MAGNETS. These FIELDS can push or pull on something from a distance. These FIELD LINES show the direction of the push or the pull.

Charge Interactions

 

Opposites attract!

Induction is when a FIELD is created by a charge. The ELECTRONS inside the field are affected. They either MOVE AWAY or MOVE TOWARDS depending on the charge creating the field.
