What is charge?
100
What happens when like poles push away from each other.
What is repel?
100
A material that resists but does not stop the flow of current.
What is a resistor?
100
A path that is made for an electric current.
What is a circuit?
200
When an object repels or attracts an object
What is magnetic?
200
The charge that stays on an object.
What is static electricity?
200
The same poles of two or more magnets.
What is LIKE poles?
200

What is a bulb is a series circuit?
200
A battery.
What is an electric cell or D-cell?
300

What are poles?
300
The charge that you, a doorknob, and a balloon have most of the time.
