                    1.  The Circuit Lab is a virtual place where you can safely explore
                        and create circuits.

                    2.  In a virtual lab, it is possible to get an electric shock while testing

                        a circuit.

                    3.  In a complete circuit, electricity cannot flow through wires.


                    4.  Material like paperclips can be used to test if they conduct electricity.

                    3.  A                 acts as a load, converting electrical energy
                        to light.

                    4.  When the circuit is complete, the Light Bulb lights up, demonstrating that

                                        is flowing through the wires.


                 COMPETENCY-BASED QUESTIONS


                 1.  Your friend wants to make a bulb light up but does not know the components
                    needed. Tell him the circuit components he will need to make the bulb light up.

                 2.  Rohan is testing a circuit with a switch. When the switch is turned on, the bulb

                    lights up. What role does the switch play in the circuit?
