CONVERTS MECHANICAL ENERGY INTO ELECTRICITY
WHAT IS A GENERATOR
100
A material that let electricity flow easily

200
Which type of circuit is commonly used in households?
WHAT IS PARALLEL CIRCUIT.
200
This happens when charges are the same and close together
WHAT IS REPEL
200
When the current is turned off in an electromagnet....
The Magnetic Field is weakened or gone
200
Providing transfer of data and complex components

You were drying your clothes and realized your sock was stuck to one of your sweaters. Explain why. (THINK CHARGES)
They most likely gained fricition while in the dryer and have opposite charges and became ATTRACTED to each other.
300
What can electromagnets do that regular magnets cannot?
WHAT IS TURN OFF AND ON
300
MAIN DIFFERNCE BETWEEN GENERATORS AND MOTORS.
A motor converts electricity into mechanical energy, a generator converts mechanical energy into electricity
300
Potential difference in charge between two points
WHAT IS VOLTAGE
400
Why is it important to have a circuit that has multiple pathways?
Beacuse it allows electricity to flow independently and if one load is out it does not effect the others.
400
Name IRL example of static electricity
WHAT IS LIGHTING
400
HOW CAN YOU MAKE A MAGENTIC FIELD STRONGER?
Increase the current, add more coils (turns) of wire, wrap the coils tighter
400
ARE ELECTRICAL OR ELECTRONIC CIRCUITS ARE FOUND IN HOMES?
WHAT IS ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS
400
A measure of the degree to which an object opposes the passage of an electric current.
WHAT IS RESISTANCE
500
2 Ways to increase the flow of electricity in an electrical circuit
WHAT IS TO:
INCREASE VOLTAGE
DECREASE RESISTANCE
500
Static Electricity is
the exchange of electrons from object to object
