When we talk about "current" in a series circuit, we mean the flow of electricity through the wires and components like bulbs or motors.

Think of it like water flowing through a hose. The current is the movement of electric charge, and it's what powers up everything in the circuit.

In a series circuit, the current has only one path to take. This means that all the electricity flows in a single loop from the battery, through the switch, past the bulbs or other components, and then back to the battery. The strength of the current depends on how much power the battery has and what's in the circuit. For instance, adding more bulbs can make each one less bright because they have to share the same amount of current.

Understanding current helps us know how much electricity is flowing and whether it's enough to make all the parts of the circuit work properly.

"Voltage" is often described as the push that makes electricity move through a circuit. Imagine voltage as a force that pushes electric charges from the battery through the wires and components like light bulbs.

The battery provides the voltage, similar to how a pump provides pressure to move water through a hose. In a series circuit, the voltage from the battery is divided among all the components.

If you have more components, each gets a smaller push. Understanding voltage helps us see how strong the push is and how it affects everything in the circuit.

Conductors are materials which allow electrical current to flow through them easily. Metals are generally good electrical conductors.

Insulators are materials which are poor conductors and do not allow electrical current to flow through them easily.

The addition of extra cells has a significant impact on how effectively the circuit works. This can be heard in the volume of the buzzer which was much louder when compared to a circuit with only one cell. This happens because there in an increase in the voltage making its way through the circuit.
