Non Polarized
How do electrons flow in a charging capacitor?
- From high to low potential energy
- From low to high potential energy
- Both
- None of the Above
Low voltage ( potential energy) to high voltage (potential energy)
Which law states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can transform into another form.
- First Law of Thermodynamics
- Law of Electricity
- Law of Power
- Ohm’s Law
First Law of Thermodynamics
The rate of electron flow in a circuit
- Ampere
- Current
- Resistance
- Voltage
Current
A continuous flow of electrons and commonly used for low voltage devices such as remotes toys and flashlights.
Direct Current
Resistivity is symbolized by the letter (p) what is it?
Roh
Which law states the relationship of current, voltage, and resistance in an electrical circuit.
Ohm’s Law
The kind of circuit that is divide into several branches first before completing the loop.
Parallel Circuit
The total current entering a junction or a node is equal to the charge leaving the node as no charge is lost is called Kirchoff’s Law
(True or False)
True
The sum of all currents entering a junction must equal the sum of all currents leaving a junction known as Loop Rule.
(True or False)
False
The sum of all currents entering a junction must equal the sum of all current leaving the junction known as LOOP RULE.
(True or False)
False. It is called the Junction Rule
