C5: Electronics for Kids
  1. Electric Circuit:
    An electric circuit is a complete and closed path through which electric current can flow. If the path is broken at any point, electricity will not flow, and the circuit will not work.

  2. Battery and Its Role:
    A battery is a source of stored chemical energy that is converted into electrical energy. It provides the power needed to push electric current through the circuit.

  3. LED (Light Emitting Diode):
    An LED is a small electronic component that emits light when electric current flows through it. LEDs have two legs: a longer leg (positive or anode) and a shorter leg (negative or cathode). LEDs only work when connected in the correct direction.

  4. Resistor:
    A resistor is a component that reduces the flow of electric current. It is used to protect other components, like LEDs, from too much current which can damage them.

  5. Complete Circuit:
    A complete circuit means that all components are connected in a continuous loop, allowing current to flow from the power source, through the components, and back to the power source.
