Across
- 5. - A safety device that automatically interrupts the flow of electricity in a circuit when it detects an overload or fault.
- 6. - A machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction.
- 8. - The voltage generated in a conductor due to changes in the magnetic field around it.
- 10. - The energy possessed by an object due to its motion or position, which can be converted into electrical energy.
- 11. - The electrical potential difference between two points in a circuit, measured in volts.
- 13. - A device in a DC generator that reverses the direction of current flow to maintain a consistent output.
- 14. - A rotary mechanical device that converts fluid (such as water or air) flow into rotational energy.
- 15. - Conductive components in an electric generator that maintain contact with the rotating part, allowing current to flow to the external circuit.
Down
- 1. - An instrument used to measure the current in a circuit.
- 2. - A material that can be magnetized and that exhibits strong magnetic properties, often used in the cores of electric generators.
- 3. - An electrical circuit in which components are connected end-to-end, so that current flows through each component sequentially.
- 4. - A relationship where one quantity increases or decreases in direct relation to another quantity.
- 7. - The opposition to the flow of electric current, measured in ohms.
- 9. - The process of generating electric current in a conductor by changing the magnetic field around it.
- 12. - A type of electrical circuit where components are connected across common points or junctions, allowing multiple paths for current flow.
