How do circuits with batteries work?

In simple terms: a battery powers a circuit so, if you have a flashlight, it will turn on. Without the battery it would be a dead circuit.

Circuits consisting of just one battery and one load resistance are very simple to analyze, and they are often found in practical applications such as flashlights and electric bells.

More often, in practice, circuits have more than two components connected together.

An electric circuit is an electrical device connected so that it provides one or more complete paths for the movement of charges. There is a closed-loop path for electrons to follow.

If the path is not complete (an open circuit) there is no charge low, and therefore no current can flow.

It won't work because the polarity of the batteries is reversed.


How are circuits connected when you are using more than one battery?

The batteries can be connected in parallel or in series. In parallel, good batteries of the same voltage will have a total voltage across them equal to the voltage across one of them. Those batteries in series will have a total voltage equal to the sum of the voltage of each of the batteries.
