Across
- 2. A safety device in an electrical circuit that melts and breaks the circuit if the current is too high, preventing damage or fire.
- 3. The flow of electricity through a conductor, measured in amperes (amps).
- 6. Thin, flexible strands of metal used to carry electricity.
- 10. A material that allows electricity to flow through it easily, like copper or aluminum.
- 14. A device used to open or close a circuit, turning the flow of electricity on or off.
- 17. A point in a wall or electrical system where electrical devices can be plugged in to receive power.
- 18. Objects that attracts materials like iron and have a magnetic field.
- 19. The amount of electricity stored in an object or the process of adding electricity to something (e.g., charging a battery).
- 20. A device at the end of a wire that fits into an outlet to connect electrical devices to a power source.
Down
- 1. Machines or tools designed for a specific tasks, like phones, computers, or lamps.
- 4. A complete path through which electricity can flow, usually consisting of wires, a power source, and devices.
- 5. Tiny particles with a negative electric charges which are involved in electricity flow.
- 7. A form of energy resulting from the movement of charged particles, like electrons, through conductors.
- 8. The ability to do work or cause change; it can take many forms, like electricity, heat, or light.
- 9. A material that does not allow electricity to flow through it easily, like rubber, wood, or plastic.
- 11. A type of energy source that can be replenished naturally, like solar, wind, or hydroelectric power.
- 12. A type of energy that makes things visible, usually from a source like a bulb or the sun.
- 13. The rate at which energy is used or produced.
- 15. A device that stores electrical energy and provides it to power electronic devices.
- 16. The origin or starting point of something, like the place where energy comes from (e.g., a battery or power plant).
