Across
- 4. material, such as copper wire, through which electrons can move easily.
- 6. a device, sometimes consisted of two leaves of metallic foil, used to detect electric charge.
- 8. tendency for a material to oppose electron flow (measured on ohms)
- 10. related to the force that causes electric charges to flow; measured in volts (V).
- 11. A ______ circuit in which electrical current has more than one path to follow.
- 12. the transferring of electrical charge between objects by touching or rubbing.
- 13. the rearranging of electrons on a neutral object caused by bringing a charged object close to it.
Down
- 1. a closed path that electric current follows.
- 2. A _______ circuit in which electric current has only one path to follow.
- 3. material in which electrons and thermal energy are not able to move easily.
- 5. rate at which electrical energy is converted to another form of energy; expressed in watts (W)
- 7. the net movement of electric charges in a single direction, measured in amperes (A).
- 9. The law of _____ of charge states that charge can be transferred from one object to another but it cannot be created or destroyed.
- 14. _____ law is the equation that relates voltage, current, and resistance
