- 2. producing or tending to produce an electric current.
- 3. most famous for his theory of electromagnetism, which showed that light was electromagnetic radiation. His theory is considered to have paved the way for both quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of special relativity.

- 12. the interaction of electric currents or fields and magnetic fields.
- 15. a shape produced by a curve that bends around and crosses itself.
- 17. a stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids.
- 20. is a device that converts motive power (mechanical energy) into electrical power for use in an external circuit
- 24. is the winding of a transformer that receives its energy by electromagnetic induction from the primary winding.
- 25. is a closed path that allows electricity to flow from one point to another.
- 27. the speed of something in a given direction.
- 31. operating by or producing electricity.
- 32. is connected to the input voltage supply and converts or transforms the electrical power into a magnetic field.
- 33. a machine for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy; a generator.
