|
1.Longitudinal wave
2.Transverse wave
1.Which wave's particles move back and forth?
2.Which wave's particles moves perpendicular to the direction the wave travels? |
1. Nickel
2. Copper
Between nickel and copper, which of the metallic items has a higher resistance. Which has the lower resistance?
|
They are all the same
Are the loads in a series circuit all the same or all different?
|
Battery Pack, Portable Car Jump Starter, Rechargeable Flashlight, Portable Generator, and Handheld Radio

1.Which wave's particles vibrate up and down?
2. Which wave's particles move back and forth? |
Flow of the current
The higher the pressure on voltage, the higher the___?
|
side by side
Are the loads in a parallel circuit connected side by side or connected away from each other?
|
1. Its atoms vibrate less, and so they impede the flow of electrons less.
2. They have a higher resistance because it has better resistance towards heat, so it can withstand other things.

What is 3 or more examples of what an electromagnetic wave?
|
It is a measure of the electric potential energy per unit charge.
Why is voltage sometimes called electric potential?
|
They stop the current at a certain point, so the circuit doesn't melt to much.
