Q

What 3 things does a very simple circut need

A

A battery/ cell/ powerpack

17
Q

What should a circut diagram looks like?

A

Straight lines (with a ruler) ans right angles (no curves)

18
Q

Draw a circut diagram for this circut A battery, switch , wires, light bulb and a restrictor

19
Q

What does a restrictor do?

A

Restricts the flow of electricity

20
Q

What are the three types of circuts? Simple circuit: one electrical component

21
Q

Series circuit: multiple electrical components on one circuit

22
Q

Parallel circuit: Off branches

23
Q

Divergent boundary The plates are moving apart <- ->

24
Q

Convergent boundary A tectonic plate boundary where two plates collide

A

come together

25
Transform Boundaries Places where tectonic plates slide along beside one another as they move
26
Static electricity definition \ Static electricity is an electrical chagr made by physical movement
27
Light bulb symbol see picture
28
Seafloor spreading theory ocean floor is expanding in some places because magma is coming up through openings at divergent bounderies and hardening into igneous rock
29
Magma vs lava Magma is composed of molten rock and is stored in the Earth's crust. Lava is magma that reaches the surface of our planet through a volcano vent.
30
Types of sesmic waves: Primary (p) seconday (s) and surface (l)
31
Where are earth quakes meauserd from. the opposit side of the globe
usng a seismograph
32
Where do volcanoes and earthquakes usuaully stem from around the world on fault lines
33
Major tectonic plates: the Pacific Plate
the North American Plate
34
3 peices of evidence for continential drift. Continent fit togethr
35
simmilar fossils
36
Geologic strata on continents are similar
37
