Electric Circuits
conductor - Answers-a material through which electrical current can flow
insulator - Answers-a material that does not easily carry or allow the
passage or flow of an electric current
battery - Answers-a source of electrical energy that is created by a chemical reaction and pushes electric
charges in a circuit
closed circuit - Answers-a complete electrical circuit or path
through which electricity or current can pass or flow
open circuit - Answers-a circuit or electrical path that is broken or
incomplete, and so electricity cannot flow through it
switch - Answers-a device that allows an electrical circuit to be opened
or closed
diode - Answers-conducts electricity in one direction only
circuit - Answers-a closed loop of conductive material that will allow electricity to flow through it
load - Answers-an item that uses electricity
lightbulb - Answers-a filament held by two stiff wires and surrounded by a clear glass globe
current - Answers-the flow of electricity through a conductor
