Electricity

Question 1

Electron

Answer 1

negatively charged particle of an atom

Question 2

static electricity

Answer 2

a stationary electric charge, typically produced by friction, that causes sparks or crackling or the attraction of dust or hair.

Question 3

proton

Answer 3

a stable subatomic particle occurring in all atomic nuclei, with a positive electric charge equal in magnitude to that of an electron, but of opposite sign.

Question 4

nucleus

Answer 4

the central and most important part of an object, movement, or group, forming the basis for its activity and growth.

Question 5

neutron

Answer 5

a subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen.

Question 6

shell

Answer 6

something resembling or likened to a shell because of its shape or its function as an outer case.

Question 7

series circuit

Answer 7

A series circuit is a closed circuit in which the current follows one path, as opposed to a parallel circuit where the circuit is divided into two or more paths

Question 8

parallel

Answer 8

A parallel circuit is a closed circuit in which the current divides into two or more paths before recombining to complete the circuit

Question 9

voltage

Answer 9

an electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts.

Question 10

current

Answer 10

a flow of electricity which results from the ordered directional movement of electrically charged.

Question 11

resistance

Answer 11

Resistance is an electrical quantity that measures how the device or material reduces the electric current flow through
