Circuit diagrams
Match the parts of electric circuits with their definitions
1.
Branch
a)
is a closed channel in a circuit that can contain more
than two meshes, i.e. a loop can contain multiple
meshes, but a mesh can only include one loop;
2.
Mesh
b)
refers to the point or junction where two or more circuit
elements (resistor, capacitor, inductor, etc.) connect;
3.
A loop
c)
is a closed loop that does not contain any other loops or
paths that do not contain any other pathways;
4.
A node
d)
refers to the segment or section of a circuit that occurs
between two junctions. One or more parts can be joined
in a branch, which has two endpoints.
