The energy repels

Question 10

How is the current like in a series circuit?

Answer 10

It’s the same as there’s only one route for it to flow

Question 11

How is the current like in a parallel circuit

Answer 11

It’s shared between the components.

Question 12

What is current?

Answer 12

The number of electrons passing per second.

Question 13

What is the voltage?

Answer 13

Potential difference in energy across a component

Question 14

How does static electricity work?

Answer 14

Electrons are transferred onto the dome, so the former gets an electrical charge which is passed to us.

Question 15

What does a cell do?

Answer 15

Stores electric energy

Question 16

What does a Switch do?

Answer 16

Turns things off and on

Question 17

What does a battery do?

Answer 17

Stores chemical energy

Question 18

What does a wire do?

Answer 18

Transports energy from one device to another

Question 19

Answer 19

Provides audio

Question 20

What does a voltmeter do?

Answer 20

Measures voltage

Question 21

What does an ammeter do?

Answer 21

Measures current

Question 22

What does a resistor do?

Answer 22

Reduces current flow

Question 23

What does a variable resistor do?

Answer 23

Control current

Question 24

What does a diode do?

Answer 24

Flows electric in one direction

Question 25

What is a conductor?

Answer 25

Something that allows energy to flow

Question 26

What is an insulator?

Answer 26

Something that doesn't allow energy to flow

Question 27

What is resistance?

Answer 27

A measure of how hard it is for the current to flow around a circuit

Question 28

What is the push given by a battery?

Answer 28

Voltage

Question 29

How does something become electromagnetic?

Answer 29

The electricity shifts the electrons which causes the rod to be magnetic

Question 30

Does metal have a high or low resistance?

Answer 30

Low

Question 31

Why do atoms have no overall charge?

Answer 31

Because since it has the same amount of protons and neutrons, it's cancelled out.

Question 32

Why do we have to stand on a plastic tray?

Answer 32

Because plastic is an insulator so the electrical charge can't flow through our bodies and feet to earth

Question 33

Why does your hair stand up?

Answer 33

Because each stand is negatively charged and the same charges repel

Question 34

When the electrical charge jumps between the 2 domes, what does it do?

Answer 34

It makes a spark

Question 35

What can this light?

Answer 35

A flammable gas like methane

Question 36

Why is the balloons attracted to the hair after it's been rubbed on their head?

Answer 36

Electrons are transferred from the balloon onto the hair which causes the hair ti be negative and attracted to the positives

Question 37

What is the name of some materials that are attracted to magnets?

Answer 37

Magnetic materials

Question 38

Name some magnetic materials.

Answer 38

Steel, cobalt or nickel

Question 39

Is a magnetic force contact or non-contact?

Answer 39

Non contact

Question 40

Why is the magnetic force non contact?

Answer 40

It can act on objects with physically touching

Question 41

What do forces always come in?

Answer 41

Pairs

Question 42

What do we call forces that come in pairs?

Answer 42

Interaction pairs

Question 43

What is friction?

Answer 43

Friction is a force that acts when two objects rub together

Question 44

What does anomalous mean?

Answer 44

Unusual/irregular
