Electricity and Magnetisam

__________is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material that builds up.

• static electricity
• current electricity
• circuits
• load

A pathway for electricity to travel is called___________

• current
• static electrcity
• circuit
• circle

A continuous flow of electricity is called_____________

• series
• circuit
• static
• current

What kind of circuit is this?

• series
• parallel

What is this?

• magnet
• electromagnet
• series circuit
• parallel circuit

How do you make an electromagnet stronger?

• Add a motor and/or lightbulbs
• Add more light bulbs and/or wire coils
• add more wire coils and/or a switch
• add more wire coils and/or batteries

What is a switch's function in a circuit?

• to make the current hotter or colder
• turn on and off the flow of current
• the pathway that current flows
• to add more power to the circuit

Why are electrical cords covered in plastic or rubber?

• because plastic and rubber are insulators which keeps us safe

• because it looks nicer

• because plastic and wire help conduct electricity

• because wires are color coded based on voltage

These magnets will...

• attract

• repel

• nothing will happen

This is an example of what type of circuit?

• simple

• series

• parallel
