100
A separation of charges that results from electron build-up on certain materials.
What is static electricity
100
A path through which particles travel.
What is a circuit
100
An electric current that utilizes a metal bar by wrapping around it.
What is an electromagnet
100
A device that produces a current in a solution.
What is a wet cell
100
A device used to open and close circuits.
What is a switch
200
A material through which electrons can easily move, such as copper.
What is a conductor
200
The part of a circuit that stops the flow of the current.
What is a resistor
200
The resulting force found by touching like charges.
What is repel
200
This can increase or decrease voltage when current is routed through it.
What is a transformer
200
This is the number of poles that a magnet will have when it is cut in half.
What is two
300
A flow of charged particles.
What is an electric current
300
A type of cicuit containing a gap or space.
What is an open circuit
300
Wrapping wire loops around a metal bar is a common step in creating this.
What is an electromagnet
300
A current formed using a conducting paste.
What is a dry cell
300
The excess heating of the environment.
What is thermal pollution
400
Used to protect people when dealing with an electric circuit. It runs charges into the ground.
What is a grounding wire
400
A type of circuit in which the flow of charges is the same along any point.
What is a series circuit
400
This uses electromagnets to help picture the inside of the human body.
What is an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
400
This uses mechanical energy from machines such as a hand crank, a steam-driven wheel, or a gasoline motor to make electricity.
What is generator
400
A circuit with more than one path of current.
What is a parallel circuit
500
The static charge in one object that is caused by the presence of an already charged object.
What is an induced charge
500
A dangerous type of circuit that is a result of minimal resistance.
What is a short circuit
500
These THREE materials will attract to a magnet.
What are iron, cobalt, and nickel
500
The unit for measuring current.
What is an ampere (amp)
500
The rate at which energy changes into another form when it is used.
What is power
