Question
Answer
opposes the movement of electrical charge   resistance  
🗑
unit for resistance   ohm  
🗑
unit for potential difference   volt  
🗑
unit for current   amp (ampere)  
🗑
standard unit for electrical energy transferred   joule  
🗑
unit for (large amounts of) electrical energy transferred   kilowatt-hour  
🗑
unit for electrical power   watt  
🗑
a flow of charge; how much charge passes a point each second, measured in amps   current  
🗑
indicates the push on each charge AND the energy transferred by each charge   voltage  
🗑
has negative charge, in metals there are lots that can move easily, carrying the current   electron  
🗑
transferred when a charge moves through a pd   energy  
🗑
has no free electrons, so doesn't conduct a current   insulator  
🗑
has lots of free electrons, so lets current flow through it easily   conductor  
🗑
how a changing magnetic field makes a voltage in a wire   induction  
🗑
device that can increase or decrease an alternating voltage   transformer  
🗑
a current or voltage that goes to and fro / back and forth   alternating  
🗑
produced by a flow of current in a coil   magnetic field  
🗑
current must pass through all components - one after another   series  
🗑
each electron will pass through one branch or another   parallel  
🗑
its resistance depends on the temperature   thermistor  
🗑
its resistance depends on the light level   LDR  
🗑
