Ohms Law
This is the formula used to calculate voltage in Ohm’s Law.
What is V = I × R?
This symbol represents a power source in a circuit diagram.
What is a battery?
Lightning is a sudden discharge of this natural energy.
What is electricity?
What is current electricity?
It's the flow of electric charge through a wire or circuit.
This is the type of electric charge that builds up in static electricity.
The unit used to measure electrical resistance.
What is an ohm (Ω)?
In this type of circuit, current has only one path to follow.
What is a series circuit?
This is the name of the sound caused by lightning.
What is thunder?
(T.I)What do you need to make current electricity flow?
A power source (like a battery), wires, and something to use the electricity (like a lightbulb).
This subatomic particle moves to create static electricity.
What is an electron?
This quantity represents the flow of electric charge.
What is Current
(T.I)This zigzag line in a circuit diagram represents this component.
What is a resistor?
Lightning can heat the air to this extreme temperature, hotter than the surface of the sun.
What is 30,000°C (or over 50,000°F)?
What material lets electricity flow easily?
A conductor, like metal.
This is the name of the force that attracts or repels charges.
What is the electrostatic force?

What is a volt of 10
In a parallel circuit, this is true about the voltage across all branches.
What is the voltage is the same across each branch?
(T.I)What should you do if you're outside and can't get indoors during a lightning storm?
Stay low to the ground and away from trees or metal.
What do we call materials that stop electricity from flowing?
Insulators, like plastic or rubber.
(T.I) This method charges an object by bringing it near another charged object without touching.
What is charging by induction
