What is an Atom?
100
An Electric charge, that can be collected, and held very nearly fixed, in one place.
What is Static Charge?
100
A combination, of electrochemical cells, connected together, that produces a Potential Difference.
What is a Battery?
100
The unit of Electric Charge; One is the amount of charge, passing a point in one second, when one Ampere of current is flowing.
What is a Coulomb?
100
Lightening is an extreme example of this.

200
The very center, of the Atom.
What is Nucleus?
200
The amount of charge, passing a point in a conductor, every second.
What is Electric Current?
200
Any device, that transforms Electrical Energy, into other forms of electricity, such as a Light Bulb, Buzzer, Heater, or Motor.
What is a Load?
200
The unit electrical resistance is measured in.
