Presentation Transcript

  1. A continuous pathway that can carry an electric current:The lightsin your home are on an electric circuit. Electric Circuit

  2. A flow of electric charges:Electric current flows through a circuit. Electric Current

  3. A basic property of the tiny particles that make up matter; it can be positive or negative:Some particles of matter have electric charge. Electric Charge

  4. The buildup of electric charges in one place:Static electricity might make your hair stand up. Static Electricity

  5. The area around electric charges in which electric forces can act:Strong static electric charges have largeelectric fields. Electric Field

  6. An electric circuit with only one path that current can follow:If one bulb in a series circuit goes out, the others also go out. Series Circuit

  7. One of the two areas on a magnet where it exerts the strongest force:Every magnet has two magnetic poles. Magnetic Poles

  8. A device made up of a current carrying wire coil around an iron core:You can make an electromagnet with a nail, some wire, and a battery. Electromagnet

  9. The energy of motion:When you move, you have kinetic energy. Kinetic Energy

  10. A device that converts electricity to motion:Some toys have electric motors. Electric Motor

  11. A device that converts other forms of energy into electricity:People use portable generators when the power is out. Generator

  12. To protect from electricity by covering with rubber or another material that does not carry current:The red, blue, and green plastic insulates these wires. Insulated

  13. An electric circuit with two or more paths that current can follow:If one bulb in a parallel circuit goes out, the others stay on Parallel Circuit

  14. The measure of how much a material opposes the flow of electric current:Most metals have low resistance. Resistance

  15. The space around a magnet in which magnetic forces can act:The metal filings show where the magnetic field is. Magnetic Field
