Electricity and Circuits

                              An electricity flows on a loop

A loop is a single closed path for electricity.





You can make any shape through a loop, it can either a rectangle, triangle, circle etc. but still it is a loop. And if you complete the loop process, you can see the electricity flowing.    


The first main needed for an electricity to flow is the "Battery".

A battery is a source of electrical energy. For this reason, we use the battery to make the electricity to flow. The battery also needs a load such as, motor buzzer bulb etc.

 
We know that the battery has two terminals. One is the positive terminal and other is the negative terminal. We ca find positive terminal by the plus sign and the negative terminal by the side which is flattened. 





Now we have the battery and a load.  And, how can we pass electricity from one another? We need something like a loop. Its quiet simple. We need alligator clips to pass electricity. The alligator clip is also same as a loop.

Now we can understand how electricity flows through a loop.
