Across
- 2. a physical phenomenon produced by the motion of electric charges
- 3. one in which all circuit elements are arranged in a single path
- 5. The measure of the opposition to the current flow in an electrical circuit
- 7. The electrical potential difference that pushes electric charges through a circuit
- 11. A discharge occurs when the electrical potential difference between two regions becomes strong enough
- 12. A stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity
- 13. where electrons move in one consistent direction.
- 14. , The direction of the flow of electrons switches back and forth at regular intervals.
- 15. a complete circular path through which electricity flows
- 17. Shows how many electrons are flowing through a wire at any given moment
- 18. unbalanced electrical charge on the surface of a material
Down
- 1. a complete, unbroken path that allows electric current to flow continuously from a power source
- 4. A parallel circuit is an electrical circuit with multiple paths for current to flow.
- 6. a circuit that does not conduct current because its path is interrupted by a break in the conductor or an open switch
- 8. A form of energy from the existence of charged particles
- 9. A very high electrical resistance and low conductivity, preventing the free flow of electric charge
- 10. electric charge flows past a specific point in a complete circuit
- 15. allows electric charge to flow through it easily with minimal resistance.
- 16. A unit measuring how much a material opposes the flow of electric current
