100
An imbalance of positive (+) or negative (-) charges between objects?
What is static electricity?
100
A material that limits electric flow which means it does not conduct electricity well
What is an insulator?
100
we use this daily to work and to play because it can travel from one place to another
What is current electricity?
100
This does not allow electric current to flow through it easily
What is the resistor?
100
Draw the symbol for the wire.

What does attract mean?
What is to pull towards?
200
a material that electricity flows through easily which means it is easy for the electricity to go through
What is a conductor?
200
Wind is an example of this
What is current electricity?
200
This controls the electric charge and flow of the circuit

He invented the light bulb, phonograph, and motion picture camera
Who is Thomas Edison?
500
Rubber is an example of this
What is an insulator?
500
This is an imbalance of positive (+) and negative (-) charges between objects
What is static electricity?
500
This occurs when the wires provide a path through which the charges flow
What is energy transfer?
500
Draw two diagrams showing both a closed circuit and an open circuit. Make sure all parts are labeled!
