Static and Current Electricity

Connects objects to cells separately so there are 2 paths for electricity to flow

• series circuit

• parallel circuit

• terminals

• filament

If too much electricity is flowing through a circuit wires heat up and can start a fire

• short circuit

• parallel circuit

• series circuit

• terminals

A switch that protects circuits from dangerous high currents- the switch will push open to create and open circuit

• fuse

• filament

• circuit breaker

• amperes

movement of charge in static electricity

• fuse

• resistor

• current

• discharge

Allows electricity to change into other forms like light or heat

• resistor

• cell

• fuse

• filament

A material where electricity does flow easily

• insulator

• conductor

• filament

• circuit

When electricity flows- a current is moving

• static electricity

• parallel circuit

• current-electricity

• dishcharge

electricity flows 1 way one path

• series circuit

• static electricity

• short circuit

• parallel circuit

Made up of parts that work together to allow electricity to flow

• resistor

• cell

• circuit

• terminal

Changes chemical energy into electrical energy

• resistor

• cell

• fuse

• terminal
