What is one use for an insulator?

• It slows down the flow of the electric current to produce heat and light.

• It stores electric current to flow through it.

• It allows electric current to flow through it.

• It makes electrically charged objects safe to handle.

An electric current cannot flow in a series circuit if

• the circuit contains an insulator.

• there is a break in the circuit.

• the circuit contains a resistor.

• the circuit has only one loop in it.

What will happen in a parallel circuit if one of its loops is broken?

• electric current will not flow through any of its loops

• electric current will still flow through the broken loop

• electric current will still flow through the unbroken loops

• the energy source will stop providing energy to move electric charges

A washing machine is an example of transforming

• electricity into motion energy

• motion energy into electric energy

• electricity into light

• heat into motion energy
