Question | Answer |
---|---|
Electrical Field | Field around electrically charged objects |
Current | Stream of electrical energy which flows without stopping |
Circuit | A circular path that starts and finishes in the same place |
Load | The object trying to turn on with the current |
Direct Current | Current that always flows in the same direction |
Series Circuit | Circuit that has more than one resistor and electricity takes one path through them |
Electro Static Energy | Also static electricity and is stored energy |
Insulator | Protective shield against the flow of electrons |
Electric Grid | Includes 3 things: power plants, power lines and transformers |
Resistor | Any device that slows down the flow of electricity through a circuit |
Volts | Measure of energy of the electric charge |
Parallel Circuit | Circuit which has more than one resistor but electricity takes multiple paths through the resistors |
Capacitors | Electrical devices which store static electricity to be used when needed |
Electric Current | Flow of electricity through a conductor |
Alternating Current | Electricity produced by anything with a motor |
Battery | Combination of different items that conduct electricity |
Switch | Devices used to open or close a circuit |
