What material would be safest to use as an insulator to cover electrical wires?

• rubber

• tin

• aluminum

• water

Why is electrical wiring usually are covered with a layer of plastic?

• To make it look pretty

• To help electricity flow along the wire

• To make it safe

• To add more energy

What is a circuit with several paths for electricity to flow?

• conductor

• series circuit

• parallel circuit

• open circuit

This circuit has a battery, buzzer, and switch.
When the switch is closed the buzzer will sound because -

• the switch gives energy to the battery

• the buzzer is made of special plastic

• the wires are cooled by the surrounding air

• electricity can flow in a complete path
