| Static Electricity | a type of electricity produced by the separation negative and positive charges |
| Grounding | the process of removing the charge on a charged object |
| Conductors | a material that allows electric charges to flow easily |
| Insulators | a material that does not allow electric charges to flow easily |
| Induction | the process of charging an object through the presence of a nearby object |
| Current Electricity | Electricity produced by moving charges |
| Electric Current | the flow of electrons or charges |
| Electric Cell | a device that changes chemical energy into electrical energy |
| Anode | the negative end of an electric cell (where the electrons leave) |
| Cathode | the positive end of an electric cell (where the electrons return) |
| Ampere | The unit used to measure current |
| Potential Difference | The difference in potential between the two electrodes of an electric cell |
| Volt | The unit used to measure potential difference (voltage) |
| Resistance | opposition to the flow of charges |
| Ohm | the unit used to measure resistance |
| Electric Circuit | the path on which the electrons flow |
| Closed Circuit | a circuit where current flows in a complete path |
| Open Circuit | a circuit where current does not flows in a complete path (caused by a break in the cunductor) |
| Switch | A device used to open or close a circuit |
| Series Circuit | A circuit that has only one path in which the current can flow |
| Parallel Circuit | A circuit that has more than one path in which the current can flow |
