Electric FieldsGenerated by electrically charged particles and time varying magnetic fields
Magnetic FieldsThe area around a magnet where its magnetic force is connected by other magnetic objects.
Magnetic DomainSmall regions in magnets within which atomic or molecular magnetic moments are aligned parallel.
Magnetic PolesTwo regions in a magnet where the magnetic induction is concentrated.
Direct CurrentAn electrical current which always flows in one direction.
Alternating CurrentThe electric current that changes its direction periodically.
ElectromagnetA magnet by the passage of electric current through a coil surrounding it.
Electromagnetic inductionThe production of a difference across a conductor when it is exposed to a magnetic field.
Transformersan apparatus for reducing or increasing the voltage of an alternating current.
CommutatorA motor or a generator, that the electrical connection is made and which makes sure the current flows as direct current.
Equivalent ResistanceA resistance that represents the total values of a circuit component or group of circuit components.
Current- A flow of electricity through a conductor.
VoltageAn electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts.
ResistanceThe property to oppose the flow of current.
Series CircuitAn electric circuit connected so that current passes through each circuit.
Parrell CircuitA electric circuit in which the current divides into two or more paths before coming back together to complete the circuit.
