comprises branches so that the current divides and only part of it flows through any branch.
What is a Parallel Circuit
the materials or substances that allow electricity to flow through them
What is a Conductor
the physical interaction among electric charges, magnetic moments, and the electromagnetic field.
What is Electromagnetism
mostly the use of wind turbines to generate electricity.
What is Wind Power
The specific amount of energy available in a circuit
What is Voltage
constancy of the total electric charge in the universe or in any specific chemical or nuclear reaction.
What is the Conservation of Charge
an electrical coil wrapped around a soft-iron core
What is a Electromagnet
a unit of power or radiant flux.
What is Watt
a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit.
What is Resistance
the study of electromagnetic phenomena that occur when there are no moving charges
What is the Law of Electrostatics
the region in which a body experiences a force due to its magnetic polarity
What is Magnetic Field
in a device, an electrical circuit of lower resistance than that of a normal circuit, typically resulting from the unintended contact of components and consequent accidental diversion of the current.
What is a Short Circuit
a device that has electrical resistance and that is used in an electric circuit for protection, operation, or current control.
What is a Resistor
a container consisting of one or more cells, in which chemical energy is converted into electricity and used as a source of power.
What is a battery
an instrument for determining direction on the surface of Earth by means of a magnetic pointer that aligns itself with Earth's magnetic field.
What is an Magnetic Compass
is an industrial facility that generates electricity from primary energy.
What is a power plant
rate at which energy energy is transferred
What is Power
When work is done on a positive test charge to move it from one location to another,
What is Electrical Potential
A common application for electromagnetics is magnetic resonance imaging
What is an MRI
an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons.
What is an Ion
