Electricity Glossary and Terms+
Ampere Ampere's Law Alternating current (AC)
- The ampere is the standard unit of measure of electic current. It is sometimes written as Amp.
- An electric current that reverses direction on a periodic basis. it is widely used to transport power on power lines.
Alternating Current Battery energy storing
-Electric current that reverses direction on periodic basis, is widely used to transport power on power lines
-A basic electrical component that stores electric charge its capacitors are made from two electrical conductors separated by an insulator.
Capacitor (RC) Circuits Conductors and Insulators
materials conduct electricity Diode Electric Current AC&DC
- An electronic component only allows current to flow in one direction.
direct current Electric charge Positive Vs Negative Electric circuit
-An electric circuit is a collection of electronic components connected by a conductive wire that allows for electric current to flow.
-Electric current is the flow of electric through a material. The standard unit for electric current is the Ampere.

Ohm's law Definition & Relationship Resistor
- Ohm's law is a law of physics that describe the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance using the equation V=IR
-A resister is basic electronic component that prevents the flow of electric current.
Resister2 Static electricity Static Electricity2
-The static electricity is build up of an electric charge on the surface of an object. The charge remains in one area rather than flowing to another area.
Transformer Electricity transformers Turbine
-A turbine is a machine that transforms rotational energy from a fluid that is picked up by a rotor system into energy.
Wind Turbine Transistor Transistor2
- transister is a device used in an electric circuit to requlate current flow to act as a gate, switch, or amplifier for electronic signals.
Volt - The standard unit of measure for electric potential (voltage).
Watt - The standard unit of measure used for electric power.
