  1. 5. The element of an electric circuit that can limit the flow of current by producing heat.
  2. 8. Generally the bare or green wire used to establish a low resistance path to ground.
  3. 10. The force known as voltage that pushes the electrons through an electric circuit.
  4. 12. A quantity measure of electrons that equals 6.25 x 1018 electrons
  5. 14. A common measure of power in which the base is established at 550 pound feet per second; in electrical quantities, 746 watts equals one of these units.

  7. 9. A measure of electric current defined as one coulomb per second.
  8. 11. An electric circuit that exists from the more negative to the more postive voltage.
  9. 13. A measure of EMF often described as electrical pressure.
  10. 15. The unit of measure used to describe the resistance to the flow of electric current.
