a. if electrons are rubbed from cats fur onto a rubber rod, does the rod become positively or negatively charges?
b.how about the cats fur?
Front
a. negatively charged
b.positively
Back
What happens to the total circuit resistance when more devices are added to a series circuit? To a parallel circuit
Front
Increases. Decrease more paths
Back
Will the current in a lightbulb connected to 220 v be more of less than when the bulb is connected to 110 v? How much?
Front
More, for the same resistance, current will double when the voltage is doubled
Back
If one of three lamps blows out when connected in parallel what happens to the current in the other two
Front
Current continues to flow
Back
What is ohms law
Front
Current = voltage/resistanceI= v/r
Back
Identify the basic components of a speaker and explain the role of each
Front
Magnet coil of wire cone
Back
If the resistance of a circuit remains constant while the voltage across the circuit decreases to half it's former value, what change occurs in the current
Front
Drops to half
Back
Why must there be no gaps in an electric circuit for it to carry current
Front
Gaps prevent the flows of electrons
Back
What do electric charges have in common with magnetic poles?
Front
They both attract and repel
Back
What is electric current
Front
Flow of charge
Back
In which case will there be more voltage across each lamp
Front

Front
a.free electrons
b. bound electrons
Back
does voltage flow through a circuit or into a circuit?
Front
through
Back
what does it mean to say that charge is conserved
Front
it is neither created nor destroyed, only transferred
Back
which method of charging involves no touching
Front
induction
Back
What is the effect on current if both the voltage and the resistance are doubled? If both are halved?
Front
Current remains the same in both cases
Back
"An electron always experiences a force in an electric field but not always in a magnetic field"
Front
Electron must be moving to experience a magnetic force
Back
A. How do like charges behave toward each other b. how do unlike charges behave toward each other
Front
A. Repel each other
B. attract each other
Back
In which case will there be more current in each of three lamps if they are connected to the same battery in series or in parallel
Front

which two methods of charging objects involve touching?
Front
contact and friction
Back
In a normal atom how many electrons are there compared with protons
Front
Same number no net charge
Back
when a charged object polarizes another, why is there an attraction between the objects?
Front
the oppositely charged side is a little closer
Back
what does it mean to say an object is electrically polarized?
Front
negative on one side and positive on the other
Back
Will a lamp with a thick filament draw more current or less current than a lamp with a thin filament made of the same material
Front
Thick filament has less resistance and draws more current than a thin filament connected across the same potential difference
Back
What happens to the brightness of light emitted by a light bulb when the current in it increases
Front
Increases current results in the bulb glowing brighter
