PHYSICAL SCIENCE MODULE 6 VOCABULARY

QuestionAnswer
the accumulation of excess electric charge on an object static electricity
states that charge can be transferred from one object to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed law of conservation of charge
a region surrounding every electric charge in which a force of attraction or repulsion, is exerted on other electric charges electric field
material through which electrons can move easily conductor
material in which electrons and thermal energy are not able to move easily insulator
the transferring of electrical charge between objects by touching or rubbing charging by contact
the rearranging of electrons on a neutral object caused by bringing a charged object close to it charging by induction
a device consisting of two leaves of metallic foil used to detect electric charge electroscope
the net movement of electric charges in a single direction electric current
related to the force that causes electric charges to flow voltage difference
a closed path that electric current follows electric circuit
tendency for a material to oppose electron flow and to convert electrical energy into other forms of energy, such as thermal, energy and light resistance
states that the currents in a circuit equals the voltage difference divided by the resistance Ohm's Law
circuit in which electric current has only one path to follow series circuit
circuit in which electric current has more than one path to follow parallel circuit
rate at which electrical energy is converted to another form of energy electrical power

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
