What is Electircity?
Electricity is a form of energy. It's electrical energy that comes from small particles called Atoms.
What do Amps measure?
Amps measure the amount of electricity being used
Name 3 renewable energy sources.
What is AC?
Alternating current is an electric current which periodically reverses direction and changes its magnitude continuously with time in contrast to direct current which flows only in one direction
What is static electricity?, And give an example.
Static Electricity is caused by a buildup of negative charges in one place and positive charges in the other. Ex.Rubbing a balloon on your head.
What do Watts measure?
Wattage is a measure of electrical power
Name 3 non-renewable energy sources.
coal, natural gas, oil, and nuclear energy.
What are the 6 sources of electricity?
Sound,Light,Chemical,Thermal,Nuclear,Mechnical and Eletric.
What is current electricity?, and give and example.
An electric current is a stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space. It is measured as the net rate of flow of electric charge through a surface or into a control volume
List five Conducters
How does electricity move from one atom to another?
Sometimes, the electrons in an atom's outermost shells do not have a strong force of attraction to the protons. These electrons can be pushed out of their orbits. Applying a force can make them shift from one atom to another.
What do Volts measure?
Voltage measure the pressure (or force) of electricity.
List five insulators
How many types of circuits are there and what are there names?
2:Parallel and Series Circuit.
What do Ohms measure?
Ohm's measures the resistance between two points.
What are Atoms and there components?
Atoms consist of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. The nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged).
What is DC?
Direct current is one-directional flow of electric charge.
