Electric and magnetic forces
Across
- 2. Circuit A circuit that provides two or more paths for electrical current to flow.
- 5. The positively charged particle of an atom.
- 7. pole region on a magnet where the magnetic force exerted by a magnet is strongest; like poles repel and opposite poles attract
- 8. Current The net movement of electric charges in a single direction, measured in amperes (A).
- 10. the flow of electrical power or charge
- 11. Current (AC) electric current that reverses its direction of flow in a regular pattern.
- 15. An object which is capable of producing magnetic field and attracting unlike poles and repelling like poles
- 16. properties and interactions of magnets.
- 17. closed loop through which an electric current can flow
- 18. material, such as copper wire, in which electrons can move easily.
- 20. tendency for a material to oppose electron flow and change electrical energy into thermal energy and light; measured in ohms (O). Caused by internal friction
Down
- 1. field surrounds a magnet and exerts a force on other magnets and objects made of magnetic materials.
- 3. difference related to the force that causes electric charges to flow; measured in volts (V).
- 4. the push or pull on an object with mass causes it to change its velocity
- 6. The negatively charged particle of an atom
- 9. how far is something
- 12. material in which electrons are not able to move easily.
- 13. current (DC) electric current that flows in only one direction.
- 14. A device that uses electromagnetic induction to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy
- 15. a dimensionless quantity representing the amount of matter in a particle or object.
- 19. law states that the current in a circuit equals the voltage difference divided by the resistance.
