  1. 5. electrical pressure or potential difference between two points that drives charge carriers, measured in volts (V)
  2. 6. the SI base unit of electrical current
  3. 7. Current-an electric current flowing in one direction only.
  4. 9. circuit-a closed loop where components are connected end-to-end, providing a single path for electrical current to flow
  5. 11. diagram-a graphical, abstract representation of a system, such as an electrical circuit, using standardized symbols rather than realistic pictures to show functional connections.
  6. 12. difference-the difference in electric potential energy per unit charge between two points in a circuit, driving electric current flow
  7. 13. device used to store an electric charge, consisting of one or more pairs of conductors separated by an insulator.
  8. 16. force-the attractive or repulsive interaction between two charged objects, acting at a distance without physical contact
Down
  1. 1. SI derived unit for electrical potential difference, electromotive force, and voltage
  2. 2. ohm is the unit of electrical resistance in the International System of Units (SI).
  3. 3. Current- an electric current that reverses its direction many times a second at regular intervals, typically used in power supplies.
  4. 4. fundamental physical property of matter that causes subatomic particles (protons and electrons) to experience a force in electromagnetic fields.
  5. 8. complete and closed path around which a circulating electric current can flow.
  6. 10. potential-The electric potential, or voltage, is the difference in potential energy per unit charge between two locations in an electric field
  7. 13. material or device that conducts or transmits heat, electricity, or sound,
  8. 14. law-Ohm's law states that the electric current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points.
  9. 15. Circuit-an electrical configuration with multiple paths for current to flow, where components share the same voltage
  10. 16. current-the rate at which charge (usually electrons) flows past a point in a conductor, measured in Amperes (A).
