Electricity
Across
- 3. The ratio of vols/amps is the unit of resistance called.
- 4. The difference in electric potential energy between two points per unit electric charge.
- 10. the ends of a magnetic object, where the magnetic force is strongest.
- 12. Materials that have a property of opposing or reducing a current.
- 14. the SI unit of measurement of power; equivalent to Joule/second.
- 17. a closed circuit in which the current divides into two or more paths before recombining to complete the circuit.
- 18. the ends of a magnetic object, where the magnetic force is strongest
- 20. an electrical device that provides a path for electrical current to flow.
Down
- 1. accidental contact between two points in an electric circuit that have a potential difference.
- 2. a circuit in which the objects are connected in a single path.
- 5. a device that increases or decreases the voltage of alternating current.
- 6. materials which easily allow charges to flow through them *metals, water*.
- 7. resistance, and current are related.
- 8. measurement of power in volts.
- 9. a flow of electricity through a conductor. electrical power the rate at which electrical energy is converted to another form of energy.
- 11. A property that causes subatomic particles such as protons and electrons to attract or repel each other.
- 13. car batteries and lead storage batteries. electrometer instrument for measuring electrical potential (charges).
- 15. a material in which charges cannot move freely such as rubber, plastic, or glass. dry cell battery common battery used in calculators, watches, radios, and tape players.
- 16. The field around charged particles that exerts a force on other charged particles.
- 19. the rate at which work is done
