SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
What are the pins of a transistor called? ANSWER - Base, Collector, and Emitter.
Circuit Breaker. ANSWER -A automatic switch that is similar to a fuse in purpose,
but can be used multiple times.
Conductor. ANSWER -A material through which charges can easily flow.
Electron. ANSWER -A negatively charged particle found in atoms that is a carrier of
electricity.
Fission. ANSWER -The process used in modern nuclear power plants.
Fuse. ANSWER -A safety device with a thin metal strip that will melt if too much
current passes through a circuit.
Galvanometer. ANSWER -A device that uses an electromagnet to detect small
amounts of current.
Grounded. ANSWER -Allowing charges to flow directly from the circuit into Earth
in the event of a short circuit.

, Induction. ANSWER -A method of charging an object by means of the electric field or
another object; the objects have no direct contact.
Insulator. ANSWER -A material through which charges cannot easily flow.
Integrated Circuit. ANSWER -A circuit that has been manufactured on a chip (a tiny
slice of semiconductor), which can contain thousands of diodes, transistors, and
resistors.
Light Emitting Diode. ANSWER -LED stands for this.
Magnet. ANSWER -A device that attracts any material containing iron.
Magnetic Declination. ANSWER -The angle between geographic north to which a
compass needle points.
Magnetic Domain. ANSWER -A region in which the magnetic fields of all atoms are
lined up in the same direction.
Magnetic Field. ANSWER -The region around a magnet where the magnetic force is
exerted.
Magnetic Field Lines. ANSWER -Invisible lines that map out the magnetic field
around a magnet.
Magnetic Force. ANSWER -A force produced when magnetic poles interact.
