basicly :::: a light cicuit is a link , one light feeds the power to the next one ! at the final light it stops
power (sockets) circuit is on a loop , one socket feeds the next , starting from the distibution board , the last one the cable goes back to the board . giving you the loop

A circuit could be something like a car battery supplying a car radio when the engine is not running.
A circuit, in general, consists of a supply voltage,V (volts) and a circuit resistance,R(ohms) and an ON/OFF switch.
When switched to ON, a current,I, flows thro` the resistor (and the battery)
I = V/R amps (this is known as Ohm`s Law)

which type of circuit do you mean ? a lighting circuit or a solid state circuit A live supply from consumer unit or a high voltage circuit ? you need to clarify what you are talking about, then i may be able to help you.

The circuit makes use of a microphone to decrease back the automobile for a while. each and each time a clap sound is produced, the microphone options up this and converts it to a small voltage, which gets amplified by utilising TR1 and TR2. The output of TR2 is fed decrease back to base of TR1 with the aid of a resistor and capacitor. as a consequence, TR2, whose collector is extra often than not at approximately grant voltage, activates for a quick fastened era, many times 2 secs. it is is used to opposite the direction of rotation for the motor for this era. So the forward shifting automobile, "backs up" for 2 secs each and each time a clap is made or a sound is produced because of automobile hitting an impediment. i think, if there is not any impediment, a clap will nevertheless recommend that the automobiles backs up for 2 secs. After this it is going to resume its forward journey. it is likewise achievable that the direction of the flow in forward direction modifications by utilising 30 to 60 deg, each and every time one claps.

The easiest way that kids will understand is to show them a simple practical circuit like a torch. Then introduce conductive / non-conductive materials so they learn about electric shocks etc. Build from there..!

what do you want explained?
the metal has valency electrons which pass the electrical current through the metal. The flow of electrons moves from positive to negative- if you break the circuit then the electrons can't move but the positive side will still remain live so don't touch it!
That's for direct current with alternating you need to be doubly careful.
Hope this helps

An elementary interactive tutorial can be seen at the following link:-
The BASIC Rule is for Electrons to pass round a complete path the circuit needs to be CLOSED and complete...

You can explain circuits in terms of either what it does overall, or the actual component usage and connections.
If you are trying to describe the layout of the components, people generally use terms like series, or parallel. Other details are voltage supply, power usage(watts), etc.

WELL FIRST OF ALL SEE WHAT ALL FEATURES THE CIRCUIT HAS?
IF YOU SEE CAPACITORS THEY DO THE TIMING JOB
IF YOU SEE RESISTORS THEY HELP CAPACITORS TO INITIATE THEIR TIMING PROCESS.ALSO THEY VERY IMPORTANTLY PROVIDE DIFFERENT CURRENT VALUES IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE CIRCUIT .
FOR e.g A 2W BULB WILL REQUIRE LESS CURRENT THAN A 12 V DC MOTOR SO RESISTORS WILL OFFER MORE RESISTANCE TO THE BULB THAN THE MOTOR.
IF YOU SEE A TRANSISTOR THEN THEY ACT LIKE ON/OFF SWITCHES AND ALSO AMPLIFY CURRENT FEED TO THEM.
INDUCTORS ARE USED AS FILTERS
CAPACITORS AND INDUCTORS CLOSE TO EACH OTHER IN CIRCUITS PROVIDE RF SIGNALS
I CANT KEEP ON TELLING YOU ALL ABOUT THESE CIRCUITS BECAUSE THEY ARE SO COMPLICATED TO EXPLAIN EACH AND EVERY PART OF IT
BUT YOU CAN ASK ME WHAT YOU EXACTLY WANT AND ILL TRY MY BEST TO EXPLAIN IN LAY TERMS

Think of a circuit as a system of water pipes! There is a pump (the voltage source), there is the amount of water flowing in any given pipe (the current) and there is the water pressure at any given point (voltage). Think of pinches as resistances. and if you rupture a line its just like a short, you get a ton of current (water) flowing through the pipes, but very little pressure (voltage). oh yeah, and valves are like your switches
