Electricity
The tiny building blocks of everything. They're tiny and they're teeny! These include electrons, protons, neutrons, etc.
What are atoms?
Static electricity can cause this when storm clouds become charged.
What is lightning?
This particle can jump
What is an electron?
What is the thing that closes and opens the current in a circuit.
What is a switch.
Name something that transformed electrical energy into heat energy
What is toaster/oven/microwave/etc.
When an atom has the same number of positive particles (protons) as negative particles (electrons), what type of charge does it have?
What is neutral?
What is jump?
This is a path in which electric charges can flow.
What is an circuit.
In order for them to work, circuits need to be...
What is closed?
Name something that turns electrical energy into light and sound energy
What is tv/phone/laptop/etc.
When an atom has more protons than electrons what type of charge does it have?
What is positive?
Do electrons jump from one object to another another with the same charge or a different charge?
Name at least 2 things that electrons flow easily through.
What is wire, metal poles, anything metal.
What flows through a circuit?
What is electrons?
Name something that transformed electrical energy into mechanical/kinetic energy
What is fan/hair dryer/drill/etc.
When an atom has more electrons than protons what type of charge does it have?
What is negative?
Static can be created when rubbing two objects together causing...
What is friction?
Name at least 2 things that could slow the flow of electrons in a circuit.
What is wood plastic rubber
In this type of circuit, devices are connected so there is only 1 closed path for current to follow.
What is series
What is wasted energy?
FREEBIE!!
What is freebie!?
When your hair stands up due to static electricity, the negatively charged atoms are doing what?
(Attracting/repelling each other)
What is repelling each other?
Does a conductor or an insulator help transmit energy?
What is conductor?
This is type of circuit, there is more than one close path for a current to follow.
What is parallel
