Across
- 5. an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy
- 7. one in which all circuit elements are arranged in a single path
- 8. a vector field that associates to each point in space the force per unit of charge exerted on an infinitesimal test charge at rest at that point
- 10. the difference in electric potential between two points
- 11. the materials or substances which allow electricity to flow through them
- 12. a device that transfers electric energy from one alternating-current circuit to one or more other circuits, either increasing (stepping up) or reducing (stepping down) the voltage
- 16. basic property of matter carried by some elementary particles that governs how the particles are affected by an electric or magnetic field
- 17. attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion
- 18. region at each end of a magnet where the external magnetic field is strongest
- 20. basic property of matter carried by some elementary particles that governs how the particles are affected by an electric or magnetic field
Down
- 1. A machine that converts mechanical energy into electricity to serve as a power source for other machines
- 2. the physical interaction among electric charges, magnetic moments, and electromagnetic fields
- 3. the movement of electrons through a wire
- 4. a coil of wire usually in cylindrical form that when carrying a current acts like a magnet
- 6. device consisting of a core of magnetic material surrounded by a coil through which an electric current is passed to magnetize the core
- 9. a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit
- 13. the region around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge within which the force of magnetism acts
- 14. is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other
- 15. an arrangement of electrical devices in a circuit in which the same potential difference is applied to two or more resistances with each resistance being on a different branch of the circuit
- 19. Materials that do not allow electricity to pass through them
