Across
  1. 1. allows electrons to move
  2. 2. burning of coal, turns into steam, runs through turbines, runs generator
  3. 3. how much electricity is flowing through a circuit
  4. 5. burns oil which creates heat, creates steam, then turns a generator
  5. 8. caused by the movement of electrons
  6. 11. how much current, resistance and voltage a circuit has
  7. 17. energy comes from burning garbage
  8. 18. boil water to make steam, steam turns turbines
  9. 19. opening in a circuit so electrons can not move
  10. 21. water turns blades, starts a generator and creates electricity
  11. 23. all parts are in one line and if one goes out they all go out
  12. 24. what is slowing down a circuit
Down
  1. 1. creates an open switch to stop electric flow
  2. 4. each bulb is on its own path
  3. 6. collects kinetic energy, turns generator
  4. 7. Diagram used to show circuit parts
  5. 9. does not allow electrons to move
  6. 10. energy that comes from the sun
  7. 12. what forces the current through the circuit
  8. 13. circuit is complete and electrons are moving
  9. 14. uses steam from water in the ground
  10. 15. metal strip breaks stopping electric flow
  11. 16. comes from burning fossil fuels
  12. 20. rate that electrical energy is converted to another form
  13. 22. set of electrical components that let electrons move
