Electricity

Front

What is an open circuit?

Back

An open circuit is a circuit that is not complete, meaning electricity cannot flow through it.

Front

What is a closed circuit?

Back

A closed circuit is a complete circuit that allows electricity to flow.

Front

What happens to resistance when the thickness of a wire increases?

Back

Thicker wires have less resistance than thinner wires.

Front

What is the unit of measurement for resistance?

Back

The unit for resistance is Ohms.

Front

What is a conductor?

Back

A conductor is a material that allows electricity to flow through it easily, such as metals like copper and gold.

Front

What is an insulator?

Back

An insulator is a material that does not allow electricity to flow through it easily, such as rubber or plastic.

Front

What is static discharge?

Back

Static discharge is the sudden flow of electricity between two objects caused by contact or induction, such as lightning.

Front

What is current electricity?

Back

Current electricity is the flow of electric charge through a conductor, typically measured in Amperes.

Front

What is voltage?

Back

Voltage is the electrical potential difference between two points in a circuit, measured in Volts.

Front

What is the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance?

Back

This relationship is described by Ohm's Law: V = I × R, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.
