Don't Taze Me, Bro!
Magnets...how do they work?
100
I experimented with electromagnetic induction and created an electric generator.
Who is Michael Faraday?
100
This static charge is formed in the clouds.
What is lightning?
100
The three things you need to make a circuit.
What are a power source, connectors, and load?
100
This is a substance, such as copper wire or aluminum, that allows electrical current to flow through it.
What is a conductor?
100
Material that is magnetic without electricity.
What is a permanent magnet?
200
He made it possible to turn on the lights by making a longer lasting light bulb.
Who is Thomas Edison?
200
A balloon rubbed with a wool cloth will be given an excess amount of these, giving it a negative charge.
What are electrons?
200
If one bulb in this type of circuit goes out, it will not work.
What is a series circuit?
200
This is a substance, such as plastic, rubber, or wood, that does not permit electrical current to flow through it.
What is an insulator?
200
This is where a magnetic field is the strongest on a magnet.
What is at the poles?
300
He was the ambassador to France and also discovered that lightning was form of electricity.
Who is Benjamin Franklin?
300
Two balloons hung on a door and rubbed with a wool cloth will do this to each other since they both have a negative charge.
What is repel each other?
300
This type of circuit is how your house is wired. If one bulb goes out, the rest will still work.
What is a parallel circuit?
300
A electric fan is an example of this type of energy transformation.
What is electrical energy transformed into motion?
300
A temporary magnet can be made using this.
What is electricity?
400
He spoke 8 languages and developed a generator that produced alternating current.
Who is Nikola Tesla?
400
If you rub one balloon but do not rub another balloon, they will do this to each other because their charges are opposite.
What is attract?
400
This is the continuous path that electricity can move through.
What is a circuit?
400
An electric drill is an example of this type of power transformation.
What is electrical energy to mechanical energy?
400
An electromagnet made with a nail will be more powerful with more of these.
What are more coils of wire?
500
The volt was named after this Italian scientist.
Who is Alessandro Volta?
500
Putting this in with your laundry cuts down on static cling.
What is a dryer sheet?
500
These are the the two symbols a battery is marked with.
What are positive and negative or plus and minus?
500
A lamp is an example of this type of energy transformation.
What is electrical energy to radiant energy?
500
In class, when we poured iron filings onto paper with a magnet under it, the filings aligned with this.
What is the magnetic field?
