5. Circuits and Circuit ElementsSection 1 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company What do you think? Scientists often use symbols to represent electrical components, such as batteries, bulbs, and wires. On the next slide, you will see the symbols for eight common electrical components that you have seen and discussed previously. Predict the component shown by looking at each symbol. Briefly explain why you think each symbol represents that particular electrical component.

9. Circuits and Circuit ElementsSection 1 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Electric Circuits An electric circuit is a set of components providing a complete, closed-loop path for the movement of electrons. –Called a closed circuit If the path is broken, the electrons do not flow. –Called an open circuit

10. Circuits and Circuit ElementsSection 1 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Inside a Light bulb A complete conducting path is established inside the light bulb. –The tip of the bulb (a) is connected to one side of the filament (see the black line). –The threads on the side of the bulb (c) are connected to the other side of the filament (see the white line).

11. Circuits and Circuit ElementsSection 1 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Short Circuits A short circuit bypasses the light bulb or other load. –It is a closed circuit. –Electrons flow directly from - to + without passing through the bulb. –The current is large and the wire becomes hot. Short circuits in homes can cause fires. –Fuses or circuit breakers are designed to turn off the electron flow if short circuits occur.

12. Circuits and Circuit ElementsSection 1 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Potential Difference in Circuits A device that increases the PE of the electrons, such as a battery, is a source of emf (electromotive force). –Not really a force, but a PE difference Energy is conserved in electric circuits. –The potential difference (  V) for the battery equals the energy converted into heat as the electrons move through the bulb. Electrons gain energy (battery) and lose energy (bulb) as they make a complete trip.
