Energy, Static Electricity, Electricity, Electromagnetism VOCAB Crossword

The sum of potential and kinetic energy
The energy that an object possesses due to its motion
The energy that an object has due to its position in a force field
The work done on an object by a net force equals the change in kinetic energy of the object
opposite charges attract and like charges repel
The attractive or repulsive interaction between any two charged objects
an area/ aura of influence around a charged object
The process that results in a transfer of electrons between the two objects
This process involves the contact of a charged object to a neutral object
a method used to charge an object without actually touching the object to any other charged object
an instrument for detecting and measuring electricity
A substance in which electrical charge carries( material that transfers charge easily due to free valance electrons)
A material whose internal electric charges do not flow freely, which makes it nearly impossible to conduct an electric current under the influence of an electric field
The release and transmission of electricity in an applied electric field
The process of removing the excess charge on an object by means of the transfer of electrons between it and another object
a flow of electric charge
flows one direction then it reverses
Current that flows in one direction only
Electric potential energy per unit charge, measured in joules per coulomb
I=V/R
the rate at which electric energy is used ( P=V*I)
a short length of wire designed to melt and seperate in the event of excessive current
protective electrical switch that turns itself off to interrupt the flow of electricity, if the current exceeds a preset limit
