What happens in a series circuit when one component fails?

Back

In a series circuit, if one component fails, the entire circuit stops working.

Front

What happens in a parallel circuit when one component fails?

Back

In a parallel circuit, if one component fails, the other components can still work.

What is a conductor?

Back

A conductor is a material that allows electric current to flow through it easily, such as metals like copper.
