Circuits:
A circuit is made up of a power supply, connecting wires & various elements that allow current to leave a power source, travel through the elements & return back to the power source.

Types of Circuits:
There are 2 types of circuits: 1. Series Circuit 2. Parallel Circuit
SERIES
Trick to help identify type of circuit:
Series: Pen follows wire
Parallel: Pen can go in more than one direction
PARALLEL

Relative Error
Whenever your conducting an experiment, the results obtained are only as good as the tools used to do the procedure. Precision, accuracy and reliability are key factors that influence the outcome of any data.
The relative error associated to the results gives a good idea of how good the data obtained is. It can be calculated as;
Err = Absolute error x 100Measured value
![Page 18: Mod 2 powerpoint #6 (3.7 3.9) - equivalent resistance](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/558e52201a28ab440a8b45eb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Relative Error
The object measures 2.5 cm. The absolute error is 0.25 cm (half of the smallest increment).
Err = 0.25 x 100
2.5 Err = 10 %
2.5 cm + 10 %
1 cm
2 cm
3 cm
