2
This object is attracted to iron.
3
What is a magnet?
4
This is the magnets property of attracting iron
or steel.
5
What is magnetism?
6
A magnet that keeps its magnetism for a long time.
7
What is a permanent magnet?
8
A type of magnet that does not keep its magnetism
for very long.
9
What is a temporary magnet?
10
When put together the two magnets will repel
each other.
11
What are like poles of a magnet?
12
A continuous flow of negative charges.
13
What is current electricity?
14
A path along which negative charges can flow.
15
What is a circuit?
16
A material that allows electricity to pass
through it easily.
17
What is a conductor?
18
A material that does not allow electricity to
flow through it.
19
What is an insulator?
20
When it is open it does not allow electricity to
flow through the circuit.
21
What is a switch?
22
The build up of electrical charges on a object.
23
What is static electricity?
24
When static electric charges jump off a charged
object.
25
What is an electric discharge?
26
This rule explains why your hair sticks up
after you comb it on a winter day.
27
What is like charges repel?
28

42
A type of circuit that has only one path for
electricity to flow.
43
What is a series circuit?
44
A type of circuit that has more than one path for
electricity to flow.
45
What is a parallel circuit?
46
If you unscrew a bulb in this circuit all of the
bulbs will go out.
47
What is a series circuit?
48
In this circuit, if you unscrew a bulb the rest
will stay lit.
49
What is a parallel circuit?
50
This is used to open or close a circuit.
51
What is a switch?
