Q

What are the two basic parts of an atom?

A

The nucleus and the electron.

25
What causes the nucleus of an atom to be positively charged?
Protons
26
What is the opposition lo current flow
Resistance
27
The electric circuit has three requirements:
1. Voltage source 2. Conductor 3. Load
28
Which of the following has all the requirements of a circuit?
Draw it
29
What is a resister
electrical components that are designed to control the amount of electrical current flowing through a circuit.
30
load also provides
resistance, or opposition, to current.
31
What is a load
is a device, or another circuit, that when connected within the path of current flow, produces work such as heat or light.
32
conductor is used to provide
a closed loop path for current.
33
What is a conductor
The path in which current flows within a circuit
34
Without a closed loop,
current cannot flow.
35
What is an insulator
material that blocks electrical current flow. rubber covering on many electrical power cords.
36
Current flow requires a
Conductor
37
Voltage.
is the force that moves electrons between two charged bodies Like psi out of hose/faucet
38
Current is
the flow of electrons through a conductor between two charged bodies.
39
Materials that make good insulators are:
• Glass • Paper • Rubber • Plastic
40
Electron flow is from
Negative to positive
41
A conductor
provides a path for current flow
42
Current is the movement or flow of
Electrons
43
What happens when a conductor is placed in a moving magnetic field?
Conductor heats up
44
What natural force is being used to produce the voltage that powers this table lamp?
Magnetism
45
The solution in a car battery is called the
electrolyte
46
A car battery is a storage cell because of its ability to be
Recharged
