Veda Bites are swipeable micro-lessons — each one teaches exactly one idea. Here's a taste from this kit; the app has the full deck.
Current needs a complete path.
An electrical circuit is a setup that provides a complete path for electric current to flow. The lamp glows only when one terminal of the lamp is connected to one terminal of the cell and the other terminal of the lamp is connected to the other terminal of the cell. This creates a clos...
↳ A lamp glows only when it is part of a complete, unbroken circuit.
The portable source of power.
An electric cell is a portable source of electrical energy. All electric cells have two terminals: a positive (+ve) terminal and a negative (-ve) terminal. In a typical cell, the small protruding metal cap is the positive terminal, and the flat metal d...
↳ An electric cell provides energy and has two distinct terminals, positive and negative.
More cells, more power.
A battery is a combination of two or more electric cells connected together. In a torch, cells are placed so that the positive terminal of one cell connects to the negative terminal of the next. This arrangement provides energy to the circuit for a longer time and/or provides more ener...
↳ A battery is formed by connecting cells in a series, positive to negative.
This topic introduces the fundamental concepts of electricity, focusing on simple circuits and their components. It covers the electric cell, battery, incandescent and LED lamps, switches, and the use of circuit diagrams...
