Across
- 1. has more turns on the secondary coil and so it increases voltage
- 9. where current splits or join in a circuit
- 11. the high-pressure steam is forced through a turbine making it turn
- 13. a path for electrical charge to pass through
- 14. things that uses electromagnets in a door bell
- 15. instrument to measure the flow of electricity
- 16. an electric current that always flows in one direction
- 17. electricity is transported across the country by vast networks of pylons
- 18. when electricity is passed through a coil of wire, the coil has a magnetic field around it
- 19. the region around a magnet where it has a magnetic effect
- 20. stored energy
- 21. unit of energy
Down
- 2. fossil fuels are burnt to heat and water
- 3. an electric current that is constantly changing direction
- 4. a safety device that protects an electric cable from overheating so that the insulation doesn't catch fire
- 5. when energy spreads out into the surroundings
- 6. the rate at which an electrical appliance uses electrical energy
- 7. has fewer turns on the secondary coil and so decreases voltage
- 8. can be used to change the voltage of AC
- 10. joules per second
- 11. the turbine is attached to a generator which turns to generate electricity
- 12. how good a device is at changing energy from one form to another
