Electric Circuit
A closed and continuous path through which electric current flows is known as electric circuit. It has various components including:
| S.No. | Name | Symbol | Appearance |
| 1 | Source- Cell |  |
 |
| 2 | Source - Battery |  |
 |
| 3 | Load |  |
 |
| 4 | Switch |  |
 |
| 5 | Fuse |  |
 |
| 6 | Connecting Wires |  |
 |
| 7 |
Rheostat (Variable Resistance) |
 |
 |
| 8 | Ammeter |  |

The connecting wires are generally made of copper.
Circuit Diagram:
An electric circuit is a path through which electric current flow. The simplest circuit we come across is the circuit consisting of a battery and a bulb in a torch. When the torch is switched on electric current flows through the bulb which lights it up.Drawing diagrams of the actual components in a circuit is a very time consuming and skillful task. It is much easier to use symbol of each of the components. Diagrams drawn in this way are called circuit diagrams.
When the key is closed, then the circuit is called closed circuit. This means that current would flow through the circuit to operate the device. When the key is open, then the circuit is called open circuit. This means that current would not flow through the circuit.
In the following arrangement shown in Fig. the bulb will not glow if the ends A and B are connected with

10thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
