Electricity - Practice Test for Phy Sci

Front

What is current measured in?

Back

Current is measured in Amps (A).

Front

What is the negatively charged particle in an atom?

Back

The negatively charged particle in an atom is called an electron.

Front

What types of charges will repel each other?

Back

Positive and Positive charges will repel each other.

Front

In the triboelectric series, which material is more likely to lose electrons?

Back

Glass is more likely to lose electrons.

Front

What is current?

Back

Current is the flow of moving electrons.

Front

What is voltage measured in?

Back

Voltage is measured in Volts (V).

Front

What is resistance measured in?

Back

Resistance is measured in Ohms (Ω).

Front

What is the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance?

Back

Ohm's Law states that V = I × R, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.

Front

What happens to current if resistance increases while voltage remains constant?

Back

If resistance increases while voltage remains constant, the current decreases.

Front

What is static electricity?

Back

Static electricity is the buildup of electric charge on the surface of objects.
