Insulating material, often glass or porcelain, in a unit form designed so as to support a charged conductor and electrically isolate it. Insulator
One of the electrically charged particles formed in a gas by electric discharge or the like. Ion
The principle that the electric current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference across it, provided that the temperature remains constant. The constant of proportionality is the resistance of the conductor Ohms Law
The opposition offered by one thing, force, etc., to another. Resistance
Electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts. Voltage
The speed at which such flow moves; velocity of flow. Current
A vector quantity from which is determined the magnitude and direction of the force (electric force) on a charged particle due to the presence of other charged particles, accelerated charged particles, or time-varying currents. Electric Field
A vector quantity from which is determined the magnitude and direction of the force (electric force) on a charged particle due to the presence of other charged particles, accelerated charged particles, or time-varying currents. Electric Force
great or marked ability to do or act; strength; might; force. Power
A circuit having its parts connected serially Series Circuit
A closed electrical circuit in which the current is divided into two or more paths and then returns via a common path to complete the circuit Parallel Circuit

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.
