Front

What is light energy?

Back

Light energy is the energy that makes things bright and allows us to see.

Front

Is a penny an insulator or a conductor?

Back

A penny is a conductor, which means it allows electricity to flow through it.

Front

Is a wooden craft stick an insulator or a conductor?

Back

A wooden craft stick is an insulator, which means it does not allow electricity to flow through it.

Front

What type of field does electricity create when it flows through a wire?

Back

Electricity creates a magnetic field when it flows through a wire.

Front

What flows through the wire to create a magnetic field?

Back

Electricity flows through the wire to create a magnetic field.

Front

What is an electric circuit?

Back

An electric circuit is a closed path through which electricity flows.

Front

What are the main components of an electric circuit?

Back

The main components of an electric circuit are a power source (like a battery), wires, and a load (like a light bulb).

Front

What is a conductor?

Back

A conductor is a material that allows electricity to flow through it easily.

Front

What is an insulator?

Back

An insulator is a material that does not allow electricity to flow through it easily.

Front

What happens when you turn on a light switch?

Back

When you turn on a light switch, it completes the circuit, allowing electricity to flow and the light to turn on.
