Across
  1. 2. Study of electric charges at rest.
  2. 6. Amount of electrical potential energy that each unit of electric charge has. Also called potential difference. Measured in volts (V).
  3. 7. Buildup of electrical charge, either positive or negative, on the surface of an insulating material.
  4. 9. Force exerted on an object in a magnetic field.
  5. 10. Device that transforms or converts chemical energy into electrical energy or electric current.
  6. 11. Attraction or repulsion between two charged objects is inversely related to the square of the distance between them and directly related to the magnitude of each of the charges.
  7. 12. Scientific instrument used to detect charged objects.
  8. 13. Opposition that a conducting material or device offers to resist the flow of current. Measured in ohms.
Down
  1. 1. Flow of electric current through a conductor, such as a wire.
  2. 3. unit of electric current, equivalent to one coulomb of charge per second.
  3. 4. Condition of a system that describes opposing physical characteristics.
  4. 5. Instrument to measure the voltage, or potential difference, across one or more components of a closed circuit.
  5. 8. Electrical device that has a complete or continuous path that electricity can flow through.
