electromagnet
device that uses a magnetic field to turn kinetic energy into electrical energy
rate at which electrical energy is converted into other forms of energy, measured in watts (W) or kilowatts (kW)
circuit that has more than one path for electric current to follow
the flow of electric charge, measured in amperes (Amps)
circuit that only has one path for electric current to follow
electric current that flows only in ONE direction (DC)
device that transforms electrical energy into kinetic energy
the measure of how difficult it is for electrons to flow in a material; unit is the ohm
electric current that changes its direction repeatedly (AC)
magnet created by wrapping a current-carrying wire around an iron core
