Electricity
Across
- 4. A common source of portable power for gadgets
- 5. Materials that allow the flow of electric charge (electrons) easily, such as metals like copper and aluminum.
- 8. The process by which a charged object can induce a charge in another object without direct contact, often leading to the redistribution of charge.
- 11. The particle that flows to create electricity in circuits.
- 13. Can be positive or negative and influences electric forces.
- 14. The transfer of heat or electricity through a material by direct contact of its particles, allowing the movement of charge carriers (like electrons).
- 15. What like charges do to each other.
- 16. The pathways through which electricity travels.
- 17. Powers your home and devices when switched on.
- 18. Materials that do not allow the flow of electric charge easily, such as rubber, glass, and plastic.
- 19. What opposites do in a magnetic field.
Down
- 1. The resistance encountered when two surfaces slide against each other, which can produce heat and affect motion.
- 2. Often seen when you rub a balloon on your hair.
- 3. If one light goes out, the whole circuit stops working.
- 6. The blueprint of an electrical circuit, using symbols.
- 7. Found in the nucleus and gives hydrogen its identity.
- 9. This particle helps stabilize the nucleus without a charge.
- 10. Allows multiple devices to operate without affecting each other.
- 12. The flow of electric charge, typically through conductors, which can produce heat, light, and magnetic effects.
