Eat frogs used in a frog-jumping competition (Oregon, Washington, or California)
what is California
material that electrons can easily move through
what is a conductor
the movement of electrically charged particles
what is electric current (electricity)
SI unit for electric current
what is the ampere (amp)
electric current with only one path for it to follow
what is a series circuit
particle in an atom that has a positive charge
what is an proton
when electrons concentrate at one end of an object, the object is...
what is polarized
to fall asleep in a cheese shop
(Illinois, Wisconsin, Nebraska)
SI unit for voltage
what is the volt (V)
what happens to the lights if one goes out in a series circuit
they all go out
what is repel each other
Not permitted to spray silly-string any where but your home (Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island)
What is Connecticut
a closed or complete path in which an electric current travels
what is an electric circuit
mathematical equation that uses relationship between voltage, current, and resistance
what is Ohm's law
an electric circuit with more than path, or branch, for a current to follow
what is a parallel circuit
particle from an atom that is "flowing" to form an electric current
what is an electron
process by which one object causes two other objects that are conductors to become charged without touching
what is induction
when current is not flowing through the current it is described as
broken or open
cannot use the word "butter" to describe imitation butter (Iowa, Indiana, Ohio)
what is Iowa
why a parallel circuit is safe and used in your home
stops electricity from flowing with an overheat, but allows it to continue every where else. Easier to locate the issue.
2 factors that affect the amount of an electric force
what is distance and amount of charge
transferring charge between two conductors that are touching
what is conduction
What they are measuring that "flows" by a point every second
the number of electrons
measurement of how difficult it is for an electric current to flow in a material
what is resistance
not permitted to "catch" a fish with a firearm (Kansas, Indiana, Arkansas)
what is Indiana
