| show | Any material where electric current does not flow freely. Materials, such as glass, rubber, air, and many plastics have a relatively high resistance - protect equipment and life from electric shock.

| Voltage | show 🗑
|

| Current | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | The opposition to the passage of an electric current - can be compared to the friction experienced by water when flowing through a pipe. Measured in ohms.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A circuit in which there is only one path for electricity to flow. All of the current in the circuit must flow through all of the loads. Remove one light and rest of the lights go out!!
🗑
|
||||
| show | A circuit in which there are multiple paths for electricity to flow. Remove one light and the rest of the lights stay on!!
🗑

| Electron | show 🗑
|
||||
| Direct Current (DC) | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | An electric current that reverses its direction many times a second at regular intervals.
🗑
|
||||
| Circuit | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A device which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
🗑
|
||||
| show | The flow of electrons.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A circuit that has a "combination" of series and parallel paths for the electricity to flow. Most circuits are these.

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
