Across
- 2. a force produced when magnetic poles interact
- 4. ferro magnet placed inside a coiled wire that can carry electricity
- 7. a type of fan that is kmaved by steam in a power plant to genrate electricty
- 11. A device that can increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current.
- 13. energy that is in motion or transforming one type of energy to another
- 15. when opposite charges or poles are close they do this
- 16. An electrical circuit where the current flows through more than one path. If one path is interrupted, current will still flow through the other paths.
- 17. Strong temporary magnet made by inserting an iron core into a wire coil and passing an electric current through the coil.
- 18. An electrical circuit where the current has only one path. If the path is interrupted in any point, it stops current flow in the entire circuit.
- 19. the physical interaction among electric charges, magnetic moments, and electromagnetic fields
- 20. a type of current that stays relativly constant voltage such as from a battery
- 24. The two ends of a piece of magnetic material where the magnetic forces are strongest, labeled north pole and south pole.
- 25. A material that allows electricity to move easily through it.
Down
- 1. stored energy such as a battery or fuel that can be released to create motion
- 3. a flow of electricity through a wire or circuit.
- 5. A material that does not allow heat or electrons to move through it easily.
- 6. a factory used to produce electricity from burning a fossil fuel or nuclear reaction
- 8. when a wire recoils because its magnetic field is repelling another magnetic field
- 9. The region around a magnet where magnetic forces act. magnetic field.
- 10. a metal often used in electric circuits because it is a good conductor of electricity
- 12. rotating wire moves through a magnetic field producing current in the wire
- 14. a characteristic of a unit of matter that expresses the extent to which it has more or fewer electrons than protons
- 21. an electric current experiencing force in a magnetic field and turning an axle
- 22. looped or coiled wire carrying a current
- 23. when like charges are close to each other they do this
