Best Answer

A "series" circuit is one in which there exists one single current path all the way,

and there's no point in the circuit where current has any choice of where to go.

What is current in the battery called?

A battery contains a charge of electrons. When these electrons leave the battery and travel through a circuit that is described as current.


Do protons travel through an electric circuit at or near the speed of light?

Electricity, this may be electrons in a direct current. In an alternating current the electrons stay where they are and it is only the energy that moves between electrons.


What makes electricity travel?

The flow of the electricity is being pushed through the circuit because of the electrons.


How does series circuit travel?

The electricity follows the entire length of the wire. if any part of the circuit is broken, all the electricity stops moving in the circuit.


How does current travel in a series circuit?

Current in a series circuit travels in one path. This is because a series circuit is only one path. current in a series circuit stays the same thoughout the circuit this means that if in the beginning of the circuit there are 2 amps of current there will be the same ammount of current in the middle and in the end of it. if you don't understand this please tell me and ill explain in a better way.


How do you know which way the electrons travel in standard cell notation?

In an ordinary electrical cell (commonly called a battery) the electrons will travel from the -ve terminal through the circuit to the +ve terminal. [Hope I understood your question.]


If electrons in a DC circuit travel from the negative to positive ends of a conductor do the electrons in an AC circuit simply vibrate back and forth and never reach either end?

Yes that's right The same as exhaling and inhaling through a straw


What does curcuit mean?

A circuit is a complete loop that things can travel around. There are electrical circuits that electrons travel around, and race car circuits around a racetrack, for example.


What is a incomplete circuit?

An incomplete circuit is an open circuit; i.e. some part of the circuit isn't connected to anything.Or think of it like this: A circuit is complete when there exists a complete (or closed loop) path for the electrons to flow through it. Also known as a closed circuit. If this is not the case, then it is an incomplete (or open) circuit.
