Science Grade 5 Electric Circuit

It is composed of interconnected electrical components, which allow electric

current to flow in a complete path.

• circuit

• electric current

• fuse

• insulators

• conductors

It is produced when free electrons flow in a complete and closed electric

unit.

• circuit

• electric current

• fuse

• insulators

• conductors

It gives protection in case of a short circuit and overloading.

• circuit

• electric current

• fuse

• insulators

• conductors

They are materials that do not allow electricity to flow through them.

It supplies the power, may be a generator, a battery, or a solar cell.

• power source

• short circuit

• closed circuit

• open circuit

• switch

It happens when exposed wires touch each other.

• power source

• short circuit

• closed circuit

• open circuit

• switch

It is a kind of circuit that results when the knob is switched on and the

metals are connected with each other so electricity flows.

• power source

• short circuit

• closed circuit

• open circuit

• switch

It is a kind of circuit that results when the knob is switched off, the metals

are disconnected so electricity does not flow.
