100
What kind of materials make good conductors?
What is METALS!
100
What is a series circuit?
What is a charge can only flow in one path.
100
which machine uses resistors to transform ELECTRICITY into HEAT. A. toaster B. wind mill C. car engine
What is A. Toaster
100
What is energy?
What is ability to cause motion or change
200
what is a resistor?
What is object that uses energy in a circuit.
200
which would be the best conductor of electricity? A. rubber B. Plastic C. Gold D. Chalk
What is C. Gold
200
what is a parallel circuit?
What is has two or more paths in which energy can travel.
200
a washing machine is an example of electric energy to ___________ energy?
What is kinetic (motion)
200
what is the electric current?
What is flow of energy in motion.
300
what is radiation?
What is energy that is sent out in waves?
300
WHat is the use for an insulator?
What is it stores energy to use later
300
If a stran of christmas lights is a SERIES circuit and one bulb was broke.. would the other bulbs light up?
What is NO, because the broken bulbs ruins the flow of energy, stopping it from the other lights.
300
kinetic energy causes ___________. A. resistor B. friction C. conductor
What is B. friction. (rubbing)
300
What is a conductor?
What is material that energy moves easily through
400
what is conduction?
What is a transfer of heat
400
What is an example of an insulator?
What is plastic, paper, wood, foam..etc.
400
what if you have lights on a PARAELLE CIRCUIT and one bulb is burnt out, will the other lights light up? Why?
What is YES, becuase the energy flow can chose another path to flow through to light up the other bulbs.
400
what type of energy is STORED energy.. that can transofrm into other types.
What is POTENTIAL!
400
What is an insulator?
What is material that energy does NOT move easily through.
500
What is convection?
What is a transfer of thermal energy.
500
Will a rubber eraser taht is placed betwen a battery and a wire make a light bulb light up? Why?
What is NO, because rubber is an insulator not a conductor and electricity can not pass through insulators.
500
electric energy cannot flow through a SERIES circuit if ____________________???
What is there is a break in the circuit, becuase there is only one path.
500
give an example of thermal energy?
What is oven, light bulb, etc. Answer will vary.
500
What is a filament?
What is a thin-coiled resistor that transofrms elecrictal energy into heat and light. (inside of lightbulb)
