  1. 3. An electrical connection that is made by melting "solder” to connect two parts of a circuit.
  2. 4. When the flow of electricity is slowed down.
  3. 6. Are electrical connectors that can be pinched onto a wire.
  4. 10. Is a measurement of electrical power that an appliance needs to run.
  5. 11. when atoms build up extra electrons as in lightning.
  6. 13. Allows for more than one pass for electrons to flow through.
  7. 14. The pressure that pushes electricity through an electrical circuit.
  8. 15. Are materials that are either conductors or insulators.
  9. 16. Temporarily holds an electrical charge.
  10. 17. Resist the flow of electricity.
  11. 18. Are a plastic twist on electrical connection with a metal core.
Down
  1. 1. Only allows one path for electrons to flow through.
  2. 2. The flow of electrons in one direction. AlternatingCurrent The flow of electrons that changes its direction.
  3. 5. The strength of the electrical current.
  4. 7. Allows electricity to flow in one direction and give off light.
  5. 8. Allows electricity to flow in one direction.
  6. 9. The movement of electrons from one atom to another.
  7. 12. Refers to how much it will cost to run an appliance; the more efficient, the less wattage it will consume. Conductors Materials that do allow electricity to flow through. Insulators Materials that do not allow electricity to flow through.
