Name the three ways to transfer charge between objects.
Friction, Conduction, Induction

Define Electric Circuit.
A closed, or complete path in which an electric current travels.
500
Name two factors that effect resistance.
Diameter, Length, Thickness, Temperature
500
Define Induction.
Transferring electrons that occurs when one object becomes charged by another, however they are not touching.
500
Name two characteristics of a liquid.
Shape changes based on the container its in, temperature and energy is higher than solid, particles are more far apart in solids allowing them to slide past each other.
