Electric Current
Across
- 2. Circuit-- Devices in which a circuit forms branches, each of which is a separate path for electron flow
- 3. An electronic device that allows electron flow in only one direction.
- 5. The flow of 1 coulomb of charge per second.
- 6. of Conservation of Charge: Charge can be transferred from object to object, but it cannot be created or destroyed
- 9. Current: Net movement of electric charges in a single direction
- 12. Field: Surrounds every electric charge and exerts the force that causes other electric charges to be attracted or repelledConductor: A material through which electrons move easily
- 13. The tendency for a material to resist the flow of electrons and to convert electrical energy into other forms
- 14. Source: An object that provides a potential difference
Down
- 1. Difference: The force that causes electric charges to flow
- 4. A material in which electrons are not able to move easily
- 7. Current (AC): Electric current that repeatedly reverses direction.
- 8. Current (DC): A flow of charge that always flows in one direction.
- 10. A complete pathway that allows the flow of electrons
- 11. Circuit- Devices in a circuit form a single pathway for electron flow
