how would you say "the wire through which the electric current flows." wouold it be,

Le fils ca le courant electrique couler a travers.

Load(as in electricity): A device that transforms electrical energy into other forms of energy.

is it, "Charge: un appareil ca transformer l'energie electrique dans les autres formes d'energie.

Switch: a device that can turn the circuit on or off by closing or opening the cicuit.

is it, "Bouton: un appareil ca peut tourner le circuit allume ou fermer par fermer ou inaugurer le circuit

I got the english from the BC science 9 textbook. Please help me!

By the way the question was "Quels sont les 4 elements de base de tous les circuits? Decrivez le role de chaque element.

(What are the 4 base elements of all the circuits? write(show) the role of each element).

the answers i got were Source, Conductor, Load, and Switch.

Thanks!

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Let me tell you that you had best trust your textbook, because I know next to nothing about electricity and circuits!

1. Le fils par lequel le courant électrique coule. Where on earth did "ca" come from? There is no such word; however there is ça, short form for cela, and it is an adverb!

2. La charge: un appareil qui transforme l'énergie électique en les autres formes d'énergie.

3. (electrical) L'interrupteur: un appareil qui peut allumer ou fermer par fermer ou ouvrir le circuit.

4. les 4 élements de base de tous les circuits = means the basic elements of all circuits. As for describing, I don't see that y ou did that part.

Researching some sites I found various answers, but the first looks like the best:
1. resistor, capacitor, inductor & the new one "memristor" which is short for "memory resistor."
2. your answers may be what you need since it is in your Textbook?
3. I also saw" superconducting cross-overs, vias, pinhole free insulation layers and on-chip resistors to dewsign and fabrica te the HTS RSCQ circuits = whatever they are!

Best o'luck here! :)

actually, its not my teaxt book. im using my older brother's. and the 4 baseic elements im thinking are the source, and the other three i put on.

First of all, great job on identifying the four basic elements of a circuit: source, conductor, load, and switch. Now let's work on translating the descriptions correctly into French.

1. "The wire through which the electric current flows."

In French, you can say, "Le fil par lequel le courant électrique circule." Here, "fil" means wire, "courant électrique" means electric current, and "circule" means flows.

2. "Load: A device that transforms electrical energy into other forms of energy."

The translation for this would be, "Charge : Un appareil qui transforme l'énergie électrique en d'autres formes d'énergie." Here, "charge" is the translation for load, "énergie électrique" means electrical energy, "transforme" means transforms, and "d'autres formes d'énergie" means other forms of energy.

3. "Switch: A device that can turn the circuit on or off by closing or opening the circuit."

In French, you would say, "Interrupteur : Un appareil qui peut allumer ou éteindre le circuit en fermant ou ouvrant le circuit." Here, "interrupteur" is switch, "allumer" means turn on, "éteindre" means turn off, "fermant" means closing, and "ouvrant" means opening.

Remember to pay attention to verb tense and other grammatical rules when translating. If you need further assistance or have more questions, feel free to ask!
