5. + Example 1
A simple circuit with no switch. It is on all
the time. It is called a series circuit.

6. + Example 2
A simple circuit but instead of
two lines of bulbs, it has only
one. It is called a parallel
circuit.

7. + Example 3
A circuit with a small cell of 1.5 Volts.
As the others, it doesn´t have a
switch. We can see how the bulb is
less illuminated due to the presence
of a battery of smaller power.

8. + Example 4
A circuit with a battery and a
switch which closes the
circuit.

9. + Example 5
A circuit with no switch
and lots of batteries (8
exactly). It doesn’t
appreciate, but with that
energy, the bulb use to
explote.

10. + Example 6
Here, a circuit with a push switch.
As the switch is not pushed, the
bulb is not illuminated, but if
pushed, then it will illuminate a lot
as it is a battery of great size.

11. + Example 7
A complex circuit with lots
of connectors and all of
that. It is difficult because
you have to be exact in
where will the current go
and if it is going on the
right circuit.

12. + Example 8
A circuit with several bulbs
and a main switch. It is a
circuit usually used in
places like classrooms and
that.

13. + Example 9
A push switch and a buzzer,
a circuit similar to the ones
of the bell in the door.

14. + Example 10
A circuit with three LED bulbs,
where, in the application, you
can see that they spend much
less energy than other bulbs.
A series circuit.

15. + Example 11
Here there’s a silly circuit
with 15 batteries. In reality,
the bulb would explode.

16. + Example 12
This is a parallel circuit with a
simple battery and a simple
SPST switch.

17. + Example 13
Here there’s a circuit
with a molten fuse due
to the exagerated
amount of energy
passing through the
current. During the
animation, I saw how it
broke and melt.

18. + Example 14
Here there’s a circuit with a
variable resistor. It is better
than the fuse and it doesn’t
melt that easy. It also makes
energy to flow slower and the
bulb to iluminate less.

19. + Example 15
Here there’s a circuit with
a normal fuse. It is even
better as it doesn’t melt,
and it makes the bulb to
not illuminate.

20. + Example 16
This is a really strange circuit, and it is
not find easily. Each element is
separated from each other, making the
circuit to be much bigger than
necessary.

21. + Example 17
This is a system with a
buzzer like the one in the
doors. In this case, it has
more battery than normal.

22. + Example 18
Here there are
many LED bulbs
with other bulbs.
They need lots of
battery so that they
work perfectly.

23. + Example 19
This is a multiple
circuit with lots of
bulbs and LED bulbs.
There are also lots of
batteries as they have
to illuminate lots of
bulbs, some of them of
high consume.

24. + Example 20
Here, there are
many buzzers, with
a normal switch
where the buzzers
are sounding all
the time if it is on.
Only one battery.

25. + Example 21
This is a simple
circuit with a motor
and a battery. Easy
to make. The motor
is moving all the
time with non-stop.

26. + Example 22
This is the same
circuit as the
other, with a
motor and a 9V
battery, but this
has a switch.

27. + Example 23
This circuit is one of the
most complex I made.
Three icons, two motors
and one motor. The circuit
is so complex because
those elements are really
difficult to put together in
the same circuit, making
the current to pass
correctly where it has to
pass.

28. + Example 24
This is a parallel
circuit, with four
bulbs, two of them
LED. A swich and a
battery.

29. + Example 25
This one has three
batteries which give lots of
energy to the motor, so
that it moves faster.

30. + Example 26
This is a really
simple circuit
with no switch or
things like that.
Just a buzzer
and a battery.

31. + Example 27
Here, there’s a
molten fuse, because
of the energy that the
four batteries make.

32. + Example 28
This is a circuit with a
simple diagram. The only
difference is that the icons
are organized in different
order .

33. + Example 29
Here there are two
circuits, the first one has
the resistor lower, so
more energy enters to
the bulb.
In the second, the resistor is higher, so the
energy illuminates practically nothing the
bulb.

34. + Example 30
Here, it is not
appreciated, but the
buzzer should sound
practically nothing as
the resistor is high.

35. + Example 31
This is a parallel circuit,
composed of two lines,
each line with two bulbs.
The energy of both lines
come from the same
battery, and they are both
controlled by the same
switch.

36. + Example 32
Another parallel circuit, but this
time it has only one bulb per line.

37. + Example 33
This is a series circuit,
with curved connectors.
No switch, so they are
turned on all the time.

38. + Example 34
This looks like a circuit, but it
is not a circuit. They are four
circuits. If you see with detail,
nothing is connected except
each bulb with its battery.

39. + Example 35
This looks like a
circuit, but its 6
circuits. A motor, a
bulb, a buzzer, and
three LED bulbs (red,
green and yellow).
