  1. Electricity By LaurynJackson

  2. Lighting is formed by: • a build up of charge • Separating of the charges • Then finally, the charges are released How lightning is formed.

  3. Resistance slows down the flow of electrons • Conductors have a low level of resistance and insulators have a high level of resistance. Resistance

  4. A series circuit has only one path that goes around • If you were to cut a series circuit, then the electrical device wouldn’t be able to work Series circuit

  5. Parallel circuits have multiple paths to take around • If it gets cut there are other paths to take. Parallel circuit

  6. Ground is a conductor that is placed in the ground that allows electrons to be exited and stored safely • An example would be a lightning rod on a house • They are also used on top of the empire state building. Ground
