Opened vs. Closed Circuits Comp. Book page 21 Standards: • GLE 0607. 12. 1 Describe how simple circuits are associated with the transfer of electrical energy. • GLE 0607. 12. 2 Explain how simple electrical circuits can be used to determine which materials conduct electricity.
TODAY’S GOALS • We will know the identify and understand the effects of closed and open circuits. • We will be able to identify and describe series and parallel circuits.
Open vs. Closed Circuits
Open vs. Closed Circuits Closed Circuit • Electrons have a complete path to follow. Open Circuit • The electrons path in the circuit is broken
Opened or Closed? CLOSED OPEN
Opened or Closed? CLOSED OPEN
What is the difference in these two circuits? What kind of lines are these? ONE PATH! MULTIPLE PATHS
LET’S PLAY… THE CIRCLE CIRCUIT GAME
Series vs. Parallel Circuits Comp. Book page 22
SERIES CIRCUIT • These circuits have only one path for electricity to flow. • Examples: Christmas Lights, Flashlight
PARALELL CIRCUIT • These circuits have multiple paths for electricity to flow. • Examples: houses, powerlines
