In conclusion, there are two requirements which must be met in order to establish an electric circuit. The requirements are:
1.There must be an energy supply capable doing work on charge to move it from a low energy location to a high energy location and thus creating an electric potential difference across the two ends of the external circuit. 2.There must be a closed conducting loop in the external circuit which stretches from the high potential, positive terminal to the low potential negative terminal.

RESISTORS IN SERIES
- In a series circuit, the current is the same at all points along the wire. IT = I1 = I2 = I3
- An equivalent resistance is the resistance of a single resistor that could replace all the resistors in a circuit. The single resistor would have the same current through it as the resistors it replaced. RE = R1 + R2 + R3
- In a series circuit, the sum of the voltage drops equal the voltage drop across the entire circuit.
VT = V1 + V2 + V3

PARALLEL CIRCUITS
- In a parallel circuit, each resistor provides a new path for electrons to flow. The total current is the sum of the currents through each resistor. IT = I1 + I2 + I3
- The equivalent resistance of a parallel circuit decreases as each new resistor is added.
- The voltage drop across each branch is equal to the voltage of the source.

KIRCHHOFF’S LAWS An electrical network is a complex circuit consisting of current loops. Kirchhoff developed a method to solve this problems using two laws.
Law 1. The sum of the currents entering a junction is equal to the sum of the currents leaving that junction.

This law is a statement of charge conservation.

EMF AND TERMINAL POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE Every source of emf (Є) has an inherent resistance called internal resistance represented by the symbol r. This resistance is a small resistance in series with the source of emf. The actual terminal voltage VT across a
source of emf with an internal resistance is given by:
VT = Є - I r Units: Volts (V)

The galvanometer uses torque created by small currents as a means to indicate electric current.
A current Ig causes the needle to deflect left or right. Its resistance is Rg.
The sensitivity is determined by the current required for deflection. .

Operation of an Ammeter
The galvanometer is often the working element of both ammeters and voltmeters.
A shunt resistance in parallel with the galvanometer allows most of the current I to bypass the meter. The whole device must be connected in series with the main circuit.

Operation of an Voltmeter
The voltmeter must be connected in parallel and must have high resistance so as not to disturb the main circuit.
A multiplier resistance Rm is added in series with the galvanometer so that very little current is drawn from the main circuit.

RC CIRCUITS A resistance-capacitance (RC) circuit is simply a circuit containing a battery, a resistor, and a capacitor in series with one another. An RC circuit can store charge, and release it at a later time. A couple of rules dealing with capacitors in an RC circuit:
1. An empty capacitor does not resist the flow of current, and thus acts like a wire.
2. A capacitor that is full of charge will not allow current to flow, and thus acts like a broken wire.

When the switch is closed, the capacitor will begin to charge.

b. Switches Sl and S2 are now opened, and then switch S3 is
closed. Determine the charge Q on the capacitor after S3 has
been closed for a very long time.

After the capacitor is fully charged, switches S1 and S2 remain
open, switch S3 remains closed, the plates are held fixed, and
a conducting copper block is inserted midway between the plates, as shown below. The plates of the capacitor are separated by a distance of 1.0 mm, and the copper block has a thickness of 0.5 mm.
