Answer:
Explanation:
3. The word circuit means "go around", therefore a circuit is a pathway or closed path around which electricity (or water) flows.
4. Electrons flowing through a wire can be compared to water flowing through a hose. Once the flow of electrons or water is going, work, is performed.
5. You would get shocked in a bumper car by touching the floor and the ceiling at the same time. This means you are completing the circuit allowing electricity to flow.
6. Electricity from a wall outlet has enough energy to stop your
heart.
7. Electricity is the flow of electrons, because electrons move or jump from atom to atom.
8. Materials that allow electrons to move easily from atom to atom are called conductors.
9. Materials that do not allow electrons to flow easily are called insulators.
10. Semi- conductors are materials that are somewhere in between
.
11. Voltage is the force or pressure of electricity and is compared to the amount of water pressure in a hose.
12. Current (amps
) is the amount of electricity and is compared to the amount of water in a hose
.
13. Watts (power) is the term for work performed by electricity.
