Atoms
Electron cloud.
Where are the electrons located?
Source, Load, Switch, conductor
What are the 4 main components of a circuit?
The flow of electrons in an electrical current.
Electricity.
Light emitting diode.
What does L.E.D stand for?
Copper.
What are most wires made of? What is an example of a conductor?
Electrons, Neutrons, and protons
what are the three parts of an atom?
allows electrons to only have one path to flow.
What is a series circuit?
The movement of electrons
What is an electric current?
They last longer, less waste and use less energy.
What are the benefits of L.E.D's compared to regular filament bulbs?
Plastic, Cotton, and Wood are all examples.
What is an insulator?
The nucleus
What is the center of the atom?
Allows electrons to flow more than one path.
what is a parallel circuit?
An electronic component which gives off light when a current is passed through.
What is an L.E.D?
The cathode, the longer leg of the L.E.D.
Which leg on the L.E.D is always the positive one?
The relative ability of a material to allow electrical current to easily pass through it.
What is a conductor?
They Repel.
What happens when two of the same charged particles are placed near each other?
What happens when one bulb goes out in a series circuit?
Used to slow the flow of electrons.
What is a resistor?
a component that allows electricity to flow through it in one direction.
What is a diode?
The relative ability of a material to not allow electrical current to easily pass through it.
What is an insulator?
They attract.
What happens when two different charged particles are placed near each other?
The load is dimmer.
What happens when electrons are moving slower?
Always flows from negative to positive.
What direction do electrons flow from the battery?
Nick Holonyak.
Who invited L.E.D's?
Used to prevent and insulate electrical shock when working with wires.
