A balloon is rubbed against hair. Afterwards it sticks to a wall. Explain these observations.
the balloon is repelled by the wall.
the balloon and wall are oppositely charged.
the balloon and wall are equally charged.
the balloon was sticky.
Who invented alternating electrical current (AC)?
Thomas Edison
George Westinghouse
Nikolai Tesla
General Electric (GE)
What was the biggest problem with direct current (DC) during Tesla and Edison's "War of the Currents."
It was considered very dangerous.
DC was too powerful for the circuits that existed at the time.
DC would not make as much money as AC.
DC could not travel more than 5 miles.
In a (a) circuit, the wires of the circuit are arranged such that there are (b) or (c) pathways for the (d) to travel on. This allows for multiple loads (lightbulbs) to (e) functioning if one malfunctions.
