What is series circuit?
100
Turning off the lights or TV is a way to ______ energy.
What is conserve?
100
This has more than one pathway of electricity to flow.
What is a parallel circuit?
100
Objects with unlike charges will do this to each other.
What is attract/stick to each other?
100
This is a device that uses magnetism to convert energy of motion into electrical energy.
What is a generator?
200
It is the strongest part of a magnet.
What is the magnetic poles?
200
This object demonstrates a transformation of electrical energy to sound energy.
(varies) What is a radio?
200
This substance is used to make most electrical wiring because it is known to be a good conductor of electricity.
What is copper?
200
This will happen when like charges are near each other.
What is repel (repulsion) to each other?
200
I am the buildup of electric charges on a material.
What is static electricity?
300
This circuit is when one light burns out in a set of Christmas lights, and the other lights stay on.
What is a parallel circuit?
300
Lamps produce this kind of energy.
What is light?
300
This is needed to "open and close" a circuit.
What is a switch?
300
This material is part conductor and part insulator.
What is a semiconductor?
300

400
A core wrapped with wires that can carry a current?
What is an electromagnet?
400
This is a device that produces motion energy from electrical energy.
What is a motor?
400
This is the pathway that an electric current follows.
What is an electric circuit?
400
This is the difference between kinetic and potential energy.
What is kinetic energy is energy in motion, while potential energy is stored energy?
400
I am these kind of particles that can flow through conductors easily, but not insulators.
