Across
- 5. the pressure from an electrical circuit's power source that pushes charged electrons (current) through a conducting loop,
- 7. a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (such as electrons or protons),
- 8. an electrical component that limits or regulates the flow of electrical current in an electronic circuit
- 10. the flow of electricity in an electronic circuit, and to the amount of electricity flowing through a circuit.
- 12. an elementary particle that has a negative charge and is a constituent of all atoms
Down
- 1. a stationary electric charge, typically produced by friction, which causes sparks or crackling or the attraction of dust or hair.
- 2. metals, metal alloys, electrolytes and even some nonmetals, like graphite and liquids, including water
- 3. an electrical path that branches so that the current divides and only part of it flows through any branch.
- 4. conducting pathway comprising an electric circuit along which the whole current flows
- 6. the unit used to measure electric current.
- 9. a material in which electric current does not flow freely.
- 11. circuit where the electrical current flows through an unintended, shorter pathway
