Across
  1. 3. a way to transfer charge
  2. 5. the SI unit of force
  3. 7. a way to charge an object without any contact
  4. 10. a material whose atoms hold their electrons close
  5. 12. how a car or truck gets electrically charged in the wind
  6. 14. electric potential
  7. 15. the mass in the center of an atom; about a billion times smaller than the nucleus of a living cell
  8. 16. these make great electrical conductors, and great thermal conductors too
Down
  1. 1. an abundant hadron; positively charged
  2. 2. statesman and scientist who defined positive charge
  3. 4. charges move easily through this kind of material; the atoms’ outer electrons are not very strongly attracted by the nucleus
  4. 5. an abundant hadron; has no electrical charge
  5. 6. like charges do what
  6. 8. gain electrons, charge becomes
  7. 9. the fundamental law of electrostatics stating that the force between two particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them
  8. 11. unlike charges do what
  9. 13. charge is measured in
