  1. 1. A limited or defined extent of the earth's surface; land.
  2. 4. current An electric current flowing in one direction only.
  3. 8. current An electric current that reverses its direction many times a second at regular intervals, typically used in power supplies.
  4. 9. A stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids.
  5. 11. A thing or substance used for insulation, in particular.
  6. 13. circuit A series circuit is a closed circuit in which the current follows one path, as opposed to a parallel circuit where the circuit is divided into two or more paths.
