Understanding Basic Electricity Concepts

Front

What is electricity?

Back

Electricity is the flow of electric charge, typically through conductors.

Front

How many parts an atom has and which particles are responsible for electric flow?

Back

An atom has three main parts: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Electrons are responsible for electric flow.

Front

What kind of electricity is static electricity and how is it produced?

Back

Static electricity is the buildup of electric charge on the surface of objects, produced by friction.

Front

Simple circuit: closed and open to be drawn And labelled

Back

A closed circuit allows current to flow, while an open circuit does not.

Front

Define conductors and insulators with examples

Back

Conductors are materials that allow electric current to flow (e.g., copper), while insulators resist electric current (e.g., rubber).
