Match the following parts of the circuit with their description

• Resistance in ohms

• Describes the rate that charge flows through a circuit

• Voltage in volts

• Describes the electromotive force that pushes on electrons in a circuit

• Fuse

• Used to prevent too much current flowing through a conductive pathway by breaking the circuit (like in the case of a short circuit).

• Current in Amps

• Describes the amount that electrical devices resist the flow of charge when powered in a circuit.

A simple circuit shown above contains a switch. If the switch is opened, what happens to the light bulb?

• It gets brighter

• It gets dimmer but still is present

• Light goes out
