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