100
A battery is this part of a circuit.
What is an energy source?
100
This the unit for current.
What is amperes or amps?
100
This is the formula to find Voltage.
What is V=I X R or V= R X I?
100
A negatively or positively charged atom is called this.
What is an ion?
100
This is what we call the device on a roof that attracts electric discharges.
What is a lightning rod?
200
A circuit with only one path for electrons to flow is known as this.
What is a series?
200
This is the unit for resistance.
What is Ohms?
200
This is the formula for finding the current.
What is I=V/R?
200
The buildup of an electric charge on an object due to the transfer of electrons (usually through friction) is known as this.
What is static electricity or static charge?
200
The dangerous part of electricity is this.
What are the amps (the strength of the current)?
300
This is the path electrons will always take.
What is the path of least resistance?
300
Ohm's Law is the relationship of these three parts.
What are voltage, resistance, and current?
300
A lightbulb is plugged into a wall. If the lightbulb has a resistance of 220 Ohms and a current of 0.5 Amps, this would be the voltage (use labels!).
What is 110 Volts?
300
This side of the periodic table is where you can find insulators.
What is the right side?
300
The process of providing a pathway to drain excess charge into the Earth is known as this.
What is grounding?
400
The rate at which electrical energy is converted into other forms of energy is known as electrical power. This is what we would call 1,000 units of electrical power.
What is a kilowatt?
400
Resistance can increase in a wire in two ways. Give one way to increase resistance.
What is lengthen the wire to force the electrons to travel further or shrink the wire to compact the electrons more closely?
400
A toaster is plugged into a 110-V outlet. This is the resistance of the toaster if the current is 10 A. (use labels)
What is 11 Ohms?
400
All charged objects exert this type of force on each other.
What is electric field or electric force?
400
In the synapse of a neuron there are these particles, which are great conductors.
What are electrolytes or neurotransmitters?
500
This part of the circuit is in charge of changing electrical energy into other forms.
What is the load?
500
According to Ohm's Law, if the voltage in a circuit remains unchanged but the current is decreasing, then this must have happened to the resistance.
What is increased?
500
A light bulb with a resistance of 30 Ohms is connected to a battery. If the current in the lightbulb is 0.10 A, this is the voltage. Use labels.
What is 3 Volts?
500
The rapid movement of excess charge from one place to another is known as this.
What is electric discharge?
500
This is what AC/DC stands for. (not a band)
What is alternating current and direct current?
