Atoms
What is the charge the Neutron
Neutral
What does the third line tell you?
The name
What stops the flow of energy?
Insulator
A circuit that follows a closed path it is not intended to follow.
Short
If I have 15 protons, 12 neutrons, and 12 electrons what is the net charge?
+3
What is the charge of the Proton
Positive
What is the number on top and what does it tell you
The atomic number and how many protons there are
What allows enery to flow
Conductors
A circuit that does not have a continuous flow of current.
Open circuit
Name one advantage and one disadvantage of a series circuit.
disadvantage: If one bulb goes out they all go out.
advantage: Easier to make and take less material
What is the charge of the Electron
Negative
What does the bottom line tell you?
What the mass is
What slows the flow of energy but still allows some to pass through?
Resistor
A circuit that has continuous flow of current
Closed
Name one advantage and one disadvantage of a parellel circuit
advantage: one bulb goes out the rest keep working
disadvantage: they are harder tonake and take nore material
Where are the Protons and Neutrons found
On the inside
The Nucleus
In a neutral atom how can you tell how many electrons it would have and why?
It would the same number of electrons as protons since the protons are positive and the electrons are negative you need just as many as protons to cancel outthe positive charge.
What is an electro magnet
A magnet that uses the flow of electricity to create a magnetic field.
A circuit in which the current flows through a single path. All of the parts of the circuit are part of the same path, uses a minimal amount of wire, and ALL items must be working in order for the circuit to be operational.
Series
What creates magnetism.
a flow of electricity
Where are the Eletrons found?
Around the outside
Orbiting the nucleus
inthe electron cloud
How do you calculate the number of Neutrons and why?
Take the atomic number away from the atomic mass.
The Mass is the protons and neutrons added together and the atomic number is the number of protons.
What must a circuit have to work?
Consists of a conductor, usually wire to carry the flow.
Designed to do a specific job; light a bulb, flashlight, camera, computer, television, toys
A power source
A circuit which current flows in more than one path, called a branch. Usually requires more wire and does not require all items in the circuit be operational
Parallel Circuit
In a normal magnet where does the electricity come form to create the magnetic field
The electrons align creating a flow of electricity
