Electricity & Electromagnets
Across
- 5. have a negative charge
- 9. addition of light bulbs cause the rest to dim
- 10. current that reverses its direction regularly; generators use this
- 12. a coil of wire acting as a magnet when carrying electric current
- 13. converts electricity into mechanical energy
- 15. converts mechanical energy into electrical energy
- 16. a pathway of conductive materials for the movement of charged particles to flow in current electricity
- 17. makes electric charges move
- 18. addition of light bulbs does not affect brightness
Down
- 1. unit for current
- 2. current that flows through a wire in only one direction; batteries use this
- 3. the degree to which the flow of electrons is restricted
- 4. movement of electrons through a conductor
- 6. a material that does not allow electrons to move through it easily
- 7. a solenoid wrapped around an iron core
- 8. production of voltage due to a change in the magnetic field
- 11. unit for resistance
- 14. a material that allows electrons to move through it easily
