| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What makes up an atom? | Electrons, Protons, and Neutrons. |
| What is a Proton? | A part of an atom that stays in the middle as the nucleus with the neutrons and has a positive charge. |
| What is a Neutron? | A part of an atom that stays in the middle as the nucleus with the protons and has a neutral charge (no charge at all). |
| What is a Electron? | A part of an atom that orbits(circles)around the protons and electrons in the middle. |
| What is a circuit? | A closed loop that electrons an travel in. |
| What are the 4 touch points that are needed to light a bulb? | 1. The north end (positive end) 2. The south end (negative end) 3.The brass threaded end (the side of the base) 4.The contact end (the bottom of the bulb) |
| Do opposites attract? (You probably know this already but still) | Yup |
| What are the 2 kinds of electricity? | Static and current electricity. |
| What is static electricity? | When electrons move or “Jump” for a very short distance. |
| What is current electricity? | Current electricity is when electrons are continuously moving through the wire. |
| What are the 2 common circuits? | Series and parallel circuits. |
| What are series circuits? | When the light bulbs are connected in a row, 1 after another, forming only one path for the electrons to take. If any 1 of the bulbs are burned out, the current will not flow and no light will go on. |
| What are parallel circuits? | When each light bulb forms a separate path for the electrons to follow. A single electric power source supplies all the lights and appliances with the same voltage. If 1 light burns out, the current can still flow through the lights. |
| What is a filament? | A fine, coiled wire made of a tough metal called tungsten. |
| What is a conductor? | Any material that allows electrons to flow easily through it. For ex. anything metal and water. |
| What is a insulator? | Any material that does not allow electrons to flow through it. For ex. wood and plastic. |
| What makes an atom unbalanced? | When the # of protons isn’t the same as the electrons. |
| What makes an atom balanced? | When there is the same amount of protons there is neutrons |
