Across
  1. 6. transfer of thermal energy between materials because of collisions between particles
  2. 9. type of energy resource that cannot be used up
  3. 10. A type of circuit in which the components are connected in parallel to each other; each component has its own separate branch.
  4. 15. Path that can allow electricity to flow, if closed.
  5. 17. type of energy resource that is used faster than it is replaced
  6. 19. A type of circuit in which all the components are in a chain so that the current has only one path to take.
  7. 21. energy that is stored in the nucleus of an atom
  8. 22. Materials that electricity can easily flow through (e.g., metals).
  9. 24. an unwanted electrical connection with very low resistance to current.
  10. 25. a circuit that has a break that prevents the flow of current.
  11. 26. Flow of electrical energy from one place to another.
Down
  1. 1. force that resists the motion of two surfaces that are touching
  2. 2. nonrenewable energy resources made of the remains of ancient organisms and is burned as an energy source
  3. 3. A component of a circuit that regulates the flow of electricity (can amplify the signal).
  4. 4. type of energy resource that is replaced as fast as, or faster than, it is used
  5. 5. Component of a circuit that reduces the amount of electricity flowing through it.
  6. 7. Materials that electricity cannot easily flow through (e.g., wood, plastic, rubber).
  7. 8. movement of thermal energy from a warmer object to a cooler object
  8. 11. a safety device that melts when current is too high, breaking a circuit.
  9. 12. A device that stores electrical energy.
  10. 13. transfer of thermal energy from one material to another by electromagnetic waves
  11. 14. Measure of potential energy between two points in a circuit or in a battery.
  12. 15. the flow of electrical charge.
  13. 16. transfer of thermal energy by the movement of particles from one part of a material to another
  14. 18. ability to cause change
  15. 20. A variable resistor that is a component of a circuit that can control the amount of electricity flowing through it using a knob or a slider.
  16. 23. circuit a circuit that has a complete path for charge to flow.
