Write the symbols of the following components used in an electric circuit:
(i) Combination of two cells
(ii) Wires crossing without joining.
Answer (2)
The symbols for a combination of two cells involve two cells placed in series, while wires crossing without joining are represented by a loop at the intersection to signify no connection. Understanding these symbols helps in reading electric circuit diagrams effectively.
;
In electrical circuits, schematic symbols are used to represent various components. Here are the symbols for the components mentioned in your question:
Combination of Two Cells :
A combination of two cells is typically represented as a series connection of two or more cells. Each cell is represented by a pair of lines, one short and one long, where the long line represents the positive terminal and the short line represents the negative terminal. In a combination of two cells, these symbols are placed next to each other, with the positive terminal of one connected to the negative terminal of the next.
Wires Crossing Without Joining :
When two wires cross in a circuit diagram but do not connect, they are shown with a small hump or arc to indicate they are not connected. This prevents any confusion that the wires are joined.
These symbols allow engineers and technicians to understand and construct circuits accurately by showing where connections should and should not occur.
