This document provides information about series and parallel circuits:
1. It explains that a series circuit has one continuous loop with no points for current to split or join, while a parallel circuit has at least one junction where current can split and join across multiple paths.
2. Guidelines are given for measuring current and voltage in series and parallel circuits. Current is the same everywhere in a series circuit but splits across components in a parallel circuit. Voltage is shared across components in series but is the same across parallel components.
3. Energy is transferred but not created or destroyed in circuits. Chemical energy from batteries is converted to electrical and then other forms like light and heat, with efficiency calculated as useful output energy over total
An electric circuit is a path in which electrons from a voltage or current source flow. The point where those electrons enter an electrical circuit is called the "source" of electrons.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. A circuit is like a central heating
system in a house:
Boiler
and
pump
radiator
High pressurelow pressure
There is a pump that
pushes water round
the system. The water
everywhere starts to
move AT THE SAME
TIME.
There are pipes that
CARRY the water.
In the pipes the water
is FLOWING.
flow of
water
3. An electrical circuit is very similar to a central
heating system.
The bulb in the circuit is like a radiator. An electrical
device uses electrical energy supplied by the circuit.
Instead of a flow
of water,
electricity flows in
an electrical
circuit.
The wires are like
pipes; they carry
the electricity
(called current)
round the circuit.
The electrical current is pushed by the battery, which has the
same function as the pump and boiler.
The strength of push provided by the battery is called its voltage.
4. lamps
This is a simple series circuit. In a simple
series circuit, everything is connected in one
loop across the terminals of the battery. So
there AREN’T any points where the current
can split or join (these are called junctions).
This circuit has two lamps connected in series.
Circuits are always drawn using straight lines.
Series circuit
5. Here are some other simple series circuits:
1. Two resistances (resistors) connected in series.
2. A rheostat (or variable resistor) and a bulb connected in series.

has the symbol A.
We measure the current using a device called an
ammeter. In a circuit this is given the symbol
When measuring the current through a
component, the ammeter is always connected in
series (in the same loop) with that component.

Summary for series circuits
29. Parallel circuits
A parallel circuit is one which contains a point (a
junction) where the current can SPLIT (point A) or
JOIN (point B). This means that there is MORE than
one path around the circuit.

31. For a parallel circuit, the current that leaves the cell or
battery is the same as the current that returns to the
cell or battery. The current does NOT get used up by
a circuit, just the energy the electrons are carrying.
A1 = A4
The current splits up at the first junction and then joins
together at the second junction. If the bulbs are
identical then the current will split evenly. If the bulbs
are NOT identical, then the current will NOT split
evenly. The following is always true for this circuit.
A1 = A2 + A3 =A4
32. Energy in circuits
This section deals with the energy transfers in electric
circuits.
The most important thing to understand about energy is
that it cannot be created or destroyed.
In all devices and machines, energy is transferred from
one type to another.
33. lamps
When this circuit is connected, chemical energy
stored in the battery is transferred via electrical
energy to heat and light energy in the bulbs.
The total amount of heat and light energy is the
same as the amount of chemical energy lost
from the battery.
Energy transfer in electrical circuits
34. Notice, most of the energy from the battery
does not produce light - most of it is wasted as
heat!
