Question

What are the commonly used electrical components in an electric circuit?

Answer 1

Electric circuit:

1. A system of conducting elements that are designed to conduct electric current for a particular purpose is known as an electric circuit.
2. An electric circuit consists of a source of electrical energy, elements that either transform, dissipate, or store this energy; connecting wires.
3. To prevent power overload, circuits often include a fuse or circuit breaker.

Components in an electric circuit:

1. A cell or battery: source of electricity.
2. Connecting wires: act as a conductor to flow electric current.
3. Key or switch: to control the circuit.
4. Bulb or electric device acts as a load to the circuit.
5. Resistor: to control the flow of current in the circuit to resist its continuous flow.
