Across
  1. 3. An electrical device used to store a static charge
  2. 4. Creating a temporary charge in a neutral object by bringing a source of charge close to it
  3. 8. Force exerted by a string-like connection; acts as an equal but opposite force at each end
  4. 9. The study of the causes and effects of current electricity
  5. 13. The ordered distribution of some periodic aspect of a physical system; example: electromagnetic spectrum
  6. 15. A solid substance that has electrical properties intermediate between conductors and insulators
  7. 16. Change in momentum due to the application of a force
  8. 18. An electrical property that quantifies an entire object's opposition to current flow
  9. 19. Work over change in time; the rate of work
  10. 20. The SI unit for current; 1 C/s
  11. 21. Frictional force that opposes the slipping of motion; "good" friction
  12. 22. Relating to the presence or movement of electrons
  13. 26. An instrument that can detect electric charge
  14. 28. A negatively charged particle that surrounds the nucleus of an atom
  15. 31. The flow of electrical charges through a conductor
  16. 32. A material with tightly held electrons so that it does not conduct easily

  9. 12. A physical property of space that can be quantified at every point in a volume
  10. 14. The ability to do work
  11. 17. The ratio of useful work output to work input for a machine
  12. 23. The kind of collision where kinetic energy is not conserved and some is used in deforming one or both of the objects
  13. 24. SI unit of energy, work and heat; 1 N*m
  14. 25. An inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder
  15. 27. Consists of a plane and a fulcrum; transmits a force applied at one location to move a load at another
  16. 28. The kind of collision where kinetic energy is conserved
  17. 29. A source or sink for electricity large enough that adding or subtracting some charge will not change its charge
  18. 30. The quantity of motion directly proportional to mass and velocity of a system
  19. 33. Force applied through a distance
  20. 34. A device that changes the magnitude or direction of a force, or both; makes work easier and/or faster
