Electricity and Magnetism

Front

What is the magnetic field strength at the poles of a magnet?

Back

The magnetic field is strongest at both poles.

Front

What is a material that allows the free flow of electric charges?

Back

A conductor.

Front

What happens in a series circuit if one device goes out?

Back

The other devices go out.

Front

What type of material does not allow electrons to flow easily?

Back

An insulator.

Front

What type of circuit has multiple paths for current to flow?

Back

A parallel circuit.

Front

What is the definition of electricity?

Back

Electricity is the flow of electric charge.

Front

What is a circuit?

Back

A circuit is a closed loop that allows electric current to flow.

Front

What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator?

Back

A conductor allows electric charges to flow freely, while an insulator does not.

Front

What is a series circuit?

Back

A series circuit is a circuit where components are connected end-to-end, so the same current flows through all components.

Front

What is a parallel circuit?

Back

A parallel circuit is a circuit where components are connected across common points, allowing multiple paths for current.
