AQA GCSE Physics - Electricity
questions and answers
circuit - answer a complete, closed path
through which electric charges can flow
conduction - answer transfer of electrons when
one object touches another
conductor - answer a material in which charges
can move easily. Most metals are fit this
description because some of the electrons in
metals are free to move about (they are
delocalised).
electrical energy - answer power times time
, electron - answer a negatively charged particle
found outside the nucleus
insulator - answer a material in which charges
cannot easily move
parallel circuit - answer a circuit in which
different loads are located on separate
branches. The charges travel through more than
one path.
repel - answer to drive away or force
backwards
simple or series circuit - answer a circuit in
which all parts are connected in a single loop
