.
Attract
Unlike charges __________.
|
Conductor
Is a metal paper clip an insulator or conductor?
|
an unbroken circuit
yes
What is a closed circuit, and will electricity run through it?
|
multiple

|
Negative --
What charge do electrons have and what symbol?
|
Insulator
DAILY DOUBLE!!
Is a straw an insulator or conductor? |
battery
What is the energy source in the circuits we have studied?
|
They stay on
What happens to the other lights in a parallel circuit if one of the light bulbs goes out?
|

If 2 balloons have the same charge and are brought close together, they will ______________.
|
Positive
+
What charge do protons have, and what is the symbol?
|
Insulator
Is a wood peg an insulator and conductor?
|
No, because all the connections must me made in order for the electricity to flow in a path. If electricity has a broken path, then it cannot flow.
