Year 9 Electricity revision

Materials can be classified as condcutors or insulators. ​ (a)   allow electric ​ (b)   to move through them ​ (c)   . While, ​ (d)   let very ​ (e)   current move through or even none at all.

• Conductors
• insulators
• current
• easily
• little

Organize these options into the right categories

Groups:

Electrostatic electricity is generated due to an ​ (a)   of electrons between two different surfaces. This often happens due to ​ (b)   , for example when you rub a balloon against your hair. The imbalance in electrons can cause the two objects to ​ (c)   to each other (like your hair to the balloon). When the objects are close enough, the electron might ​ (d)   from on surface to another to ​ (e)   out the electron amount. This is what causes the "zap" feeling.

What is used to record the current in a circuit?

Draw how you would set up an ammeter to record the current running through the first light bulb. Also include what the reading on the ammeter would be.
