What is Alternating Current (AC)?
100
A circuit where the current has only one path to use
What is a series circuit?
100
If you increase the current in an electromagnet, this will happen.
What is increase the magnetic field of the electromagnet?
200
A material that allows charge to flow through it.
What is a conductor?
200

400
The direction that current will flow in a DC circuit.
What is from positive to negative?
400
The reason why a 9 Volt battery does not create a stronger electromagnet (Hint: we want a strong current).
