Flashcards do conjunto (17)
- 1Learn what is on the other side, apart from the 2 symbols in the bottom right.
- 2What do you call things that you connect in a circuit?Components
- 3A bigger voltage will make the electrons move.....quicker.
- 4What does an ammeter measure and in what units?Measures the current in Amps.
- 5The more components in a series circuit, the ........... the current.Lower
- 6What is voltage?The voltage is the difference between 2 areas of a circuit. It can also be called the potential difference.
- 7What is voltage measured using and what is its unit of measure?It is measured using a voltmeter and its unit of measure is a volt.
- 8Do all components get electricity at the same time?Yes, because the electrons are already in the circuit.
- 9Where do you connect a voltmeter in a circuit?In parallel as it measures the difference in "push" either side of the circuit.
- 10Bulbs in series circuit are ........ than in a parallel circuit because....Bulbs in a series circuit are dimmer than in a parallel circuit because they share the voltage.
- 11Bulbs in parallel are .......... than in series as ...................Bulbs in parallel are brighter than in series as they get the full voltage from the battery.
- 12What does the battery/cell give the electrons in a circuit?Energy
- 13What is current?Current is the movement of electrons.
- 14What is a conductor and what materials are they usually made of?A conductor is a material that conducts electricity. It is usually a metal.
- 15—This is a series circuit,
- 16—This is a parallel circuit,
- 17What are insulators? Name 5.They are materials that do not conduct electricity.
e.g Wood, plastic, glass, clay, rubber.
