The Basics 400

What are the 4 other forms of energy

that current electricity can be
transformed into?
Answer

Heat, light, sound, movement

Magnets 400

What is a magnetic pole?

(A definition, NOT North and South)
Answer

The stronger point of a magnet

Electricity 400

Name the two kinds of electricity

and a definition of each.
Answer

Static electricity: negative charges that

have been built up over time suddenly
move together through a material
Electric current: electrons are forced
down a wire
Circuits 400

Draw an open series circuit with 2

light bulbs. Are the lights on?
Answer

No, the lights are off because it is an open circuit.
