Electric (electron) movement
A form of energy that results in the interaction between charged particles?
What is electricity?
When two different types of material are rubbed together they become.
What is charged?
This subatomic particle flows through the wire when an electric field is present.
What is an electron?
What is the thing that allows for the flow of electrons in a circuit when it is closed.
What is a switch?
A process where objects made from different materials rub against each other producing a net static charge on each.
What is a charging by friction?
An atom has an equal number of positive particles (protons) and negative particles (electrons).
What is neutral?
If something is at the top of the electrostatic series it has what type of hold on its electrons.
What is weak?
This is a path in which electric charges can flow.
What is a circuit?
This is the unit of measurement for electric current.
What is amperes or amps?
A list of materials in order of increasing electronegativity (a hold on their electrons)
What is an electrostatic series?
Electron charge that tends to stay on an object.
What is static electricity?
Like charges behave like this.
What is repel?
Name 2 things that electrons flow easily through.
What is wire, metal poles, anything metal?
This is the unit of measurement for electric potential?
What is V, Volts, or Voltage?
When a charged object is close to a neutral object, there is a force exerted by the charged object onto the neutral object.
What is charging by induction?
A flow of charged particles moving through a conductor.
What is an electric current?
Unlike charges behave like this.
What is attract?
Name at least 2 things that could slow the flow of electrons in a circuit.
What is wood, plastic, or rubber?
In this circuit, devices are connected so there is only 1 closed path for current to follow.
What is series?
Connection of 2 or more Voltaic Cells
What is a battery?
Particles that have a negative electric charge.
What is an electron?
A substance found at the bottom of the electrostatic series has what type of hold on its electrons.
What is strong?
The direction of electron flow in a closed circuit.
What is negative to positive?
This is a circuit where there is more than 1 closed path for a current to follow.
What is parallel?
Anything that can convert electrical energy into something else. Ex. light bulb
What is a load?
