English worksheets: Circuit Symbols - Free Printable

The task in the image is to copy the circuit symbols provided in the left column into the corresponding blank spaces in the right column. Below, I will explain each symbol and provide the correct representation for copying.

Circuit Symbols:

1. Battery:
- Symbol: Two parallel lines of different lengths (longer line above a shorter line).
- Explanation: The longer line represents the positive terminal (+), and the shorter line represents the negative terminal (-).

2. Lamp:
- Symbol: A circle with a diagonal line inside it.
- Explanation: This symbol represents an electrical bulb or lamp.

3. Wire:
- Symbol: A straight horizontal line.
- Explanation: This symbol represents a conductor used to carry electric current.

4. Switch (open):
- Symbol: Two separate circular loops connected by a line, with a gap between them.
- Explanation: This symbol represents a switch that is not allowing current to flow (open circuit).

5. Switch (closed):
- Symbol: Two circular loops connected by a continuous line without any gap.
- Explanation: This symbol represents a switch that is allowing current to flow (closed circuit).

Solution:

Here are the symbols you should copy into the blank spaces:

1. Battery:
```
─ ─
```

2. Lamp:
```
─ ⊙ ─
```

3. Wire:
```
─────
```

4. Switch (open):
```
─ ○ ─ ○ ─
```

5. Switch (closed):
```
─ ○──○ ─
```

Final Answer:

```
