Electricity 2
In physics we are still learning about electricity. The most recent thing we learned about is the combination circuits. It consists of both series and parallel circuits. These circuits are also called "inception" according to Mr. Blake. When the circuit splits into parallel then the current splits between each part of the parallel part of the circuit. When all the parallel parts of the circuits meet the current goes back together therefore the initial is the same as the final current. We also learned how to draw schematic diagrams. It is a simpler drawing of a circuit using only three symbols. A battery is represented by a short and long line, a resistor is represented by a squiggly line, and a cable is represented by a line.
