3Question

In a simple circuit, what 3 parts are needed for electricity to flow?

4Question

What does a switch do in an electric circuit?

5Question

9Question

A circuit diagram uses these symbols: battery, wire, switch, and bulb. Which part should be closed for the bulb to light? Explain why.

10Question

Write a short pseudocode program that checks if a circuit is complete and then turns on a bulb. Use IF and ELSE.

Answer Key

#	Answer
1	Electricity is a form of energy caused by the movement of electric charges.
2	A battery or a power plant.
3	A power source, wires, and a load such as a light bulb.
4	It opens or closes the circuit to stop or allow current to flow.
5	The light turns on.
6	Example: START, IF switch is ON, THEN turn lamp ON, END.
7	The motor will not run because it has no power source.
8	OUTPUT. A light bulb gives out light when electricity flows.
9	The switch should be closed because a closed circuit lets electricity flow.
10	Example: IF circuit is complete THEN turn bulb ON ELSE turn bulb OFF.
