A | B |
Photon | a small "package" of light that acts like a particle |
Charging by conduction | charging an object by allowing it to come into contact with ana object that already has an elecrical charge |
Charging by induction | charging an object without direct contact between the object and a charge |
Electrical current | The amount of charge that travels past a fixed point in an electric circut each second |
Conventional Current | Current that flows from the positive sie of the battery to the negative side. This is the way current is drawn in curcuit diagrams, even though it is wrong |
Resistance | the ability of a material to imped the flow of charge |
Open circuit | a circuit that does not have a complete connection between the two sides of the power source. As a result, current does not flow. |
