Q: What is the unit of electric current?

Ampere (A) — Electric current measures the flow of charge, measured in Amperes.

Q: What does the abbreviation 'DC' stand for in electrical circuits?

Direct Current — DC stands for Direct Current, meaning current flows in one direction.

Q: Which of the following is the symbol for a resistor in a circuit diagram?

—W— — The zigzag line represents resistance in a circuit, impeding current flow.

Q: What is the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in a circuit?

V = I * R — Ohm's Law: Voltage equals current multiplied by resistance.

Q: What is the unit of electrical resistance?

Ohm (?) — Electrical resistance is measured in Ohms, representing opposition to current.

Q: Which of the following is a good electrical conductor?

Copper — Copper allows electrons to flow easily, conducting electricity efficiently.

Q: What is the unit of electrical power?

Watt (W) — Power is the rate at which energy is transferred, measured in Watts.

Q: What type of circuit allows current to flow through only one path?

Series circuit — In a series circuit, components are connected in a single path for current flow.

Q: What is the purpose of a fuse in an electrical circuit?

To protect the circuit from overcurrent — A fuse is a safety device that breaks the circuit if the current exceeds a certain value.

Q: What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator?

Conductors allow current, insulators block it. — Conductors have low resistance and allow current to flow easily, insulators have high resistance and block it.
