ELECTRICITY

Electric charge that flows from one place to another in a circuit.

• Atom

• Conductor

• Insulator

• Electric Current

An electric current in which the flow of electricity has been broken.

• Open Circuit

• Closed Circuit

• Discharge

• Atom

a complete electrical circuit around which current flows.
