Static Electricity 1
Light-weight, negatively subatomic particles are known as this.
What are electrons?
a measurement of electrical resistance
Ohm
Substances that do not allow electrons to move through them are known as this.
What are insulators?
Transferring electrons to an object by touching it is known as this.
What is charging by contact?
Atoms with less electrons than protons are called this.
What are positive ions?
This occurs when two charge particles interact.
What is electric force?
Large, positively charged subatomic particles are known as this.
What are protons?
Substances that do allow electrons to move through them are known as this.
What are conductors?
Atoms with more electrons than protons are called this.
What are negative ions?
a measurement of electrical potential difference
volts
Objects with neutral charge have this influence on each other.
What is none?
Making an uncharged object have charged by bringing a charged object close to it but not touching is known as this.
What is charging by induction?
Large, subatomic particles with no charge are known as this.
What are neutrons?
a device used to remove impurities from liquids or gases
electrostatic precipitator
Objects with opposite charges do this.
What are attract each other?
The charge on a single electron is known as this.
Negative
When an atom has equal number of protons and electrons, the atom is said to be this.
What is neutral or uncharged?
Objects with like charges do this.
What is repel each other?
a property of space around an object where the effect of the object’s charge would be felt by electric charges
electric field
always electrically neutral
ground
Protons are located in this part of the atom?
What is the nucleus?
safety device would you find in a bathroom
GFI plug
Metals have at least one electron that can move around freely and thus are this.
What are conductors?
describes the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance
Ohms Law
Neutrons are located in this part of the atom?
What is the nucleus?
