A material is called a ______ if electricity can flow through it easily. (an example of this is copper)
Some materials, such as rubber, are called ______ because they have very high resistance to the flow of energy.
______ is the flow of electrons in a medium. (such as copper)
Current is measured in units called ______.
______ is the abbreviation of amperes.
______ is the electrical pressure that forces electrons to flow through a medium.
Voltage is measured in units called _____.
______ is the abbreviation for volts.
______ is the opposition to current flow presented by a medium.
Resistance is measured in units called ______.
Ohms is often represented by the Greek letter ______.
____________ are used by technicians as a form of "shorthand" to show how components are connected in circuits.
_______ has a high resistance to current flow. It is often used as a heating element. (such as in a toaster)
Heating elements are also called _________.
The resistive element in a _______ resistor is carbon mixed with a non-conducting substance, such as clay. In this type of resistor, the ratio of carbon to clay determines how much resistance it will have. (the more clay, the more resistance)
The ______ resistor uses nichrome wire as the resistive element. In this type of resistor, resistance value can be varied by making the wire longer or thinner. (the longer & thinner the wire, the more resistance)
