Circuits
1) A working circuit must have a closed loop of current flow through a load.
2) All circuits contain voltage, current, and resistance.
3) The sum of the current entering a junction equals the sum of the current
exiting a junction. Kirchoff's current law. Iin = Iout.
4) A circuit with a break in it is called an open circuit.
5) Open circuits are really boring.
6) A circuit without enough resistance in its load is called a short circuit.
5) Short circuits are bad.
