What is a semiconductor?

Back

A semiconductor is a material that can conduct electricity under certain conditions, such as silicon.

Front

What are the two types of electric circuits?

Back

The two types of electric circuits are series circuits and parallel circuits.

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 operate.
