Energy, Electricity, and Magnetism
Across
- 4. A complete path through which electricity travels.
- 7. A material that allows electrons to flow through it easily.
- 8. The sum of potential and kinetic energy in a system, related to the motion and position of objects
- 14. The process of making a material magnetic, typically by placing it in a strong magnetic field.
- 15. A type of material that is strongly attracted to a magnet.
- 16. The difference in electric potential energy between two points, driving current through a circuit.
- 18. The energy released during nuclear fission or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity
- 19. The flow of electric charge.
- 21. The mineral magnetite is a natural one of these.
- 23. The total kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in an object, often associated with temperature
- 24. An electronic component that stores electrical energy in an electric field.
- 25. The energy carried by sound waves, vibrations transmitted through a medium like air or water
Down
- 1. The phenomenon by which certain materials can attract or repel each other.
- 2. The opposition to the flow of electric current, causing electrical energy to be converted into heat.
- 3. The potential energy held by an object because of its high position compared to a lower position
- 5. The stored energy of an object due to its position or state
- 6. A piece of iron that becomes a temporary magnet when electricity flows through coils wrapped around it.
- 9. The energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds, released or absorbed during chemical reactions
- 10. The energy caused by the movement of electrons, widely used for power
- 11. The energy an object possesses due to its motion
- 12. A material that resists the flow of electric current, often used to protect us from electric shock.
- 13. A circuit configuration in which components are connected along multiple paths, so the same voltage is across each component.
- 17. The energy of electromagnetic waves, such as light
- 18. The end of a magnet that typically points towards the geographic north when allowed to move freely.
- 20. The invisible area around a magnetic object where magnetic forces are felt.
- 22. A circuit configuration in which components are connected along a single path, so the same current flows through all of the components.
