Hello fellow readers and welcome back to today's, blog post which is about what we are doing for science. So for science, we are learning about static electricity and current electricity.
1. What are the 3 particles that makeup everything? The 3 parts of the atoms are Proton, Neutron, Electron. which ones have positive and negative charges? the ones that have this are the Protons and Neutrons.
2. Objects want to be "electrically neutral" what does this mean? This is like what can happen when you touch a trampoline or another person.
3. When you rub two insulators you can get a static shock, so what are an insulator and a conductor? It's like when a table gives you a shock it is from Electrons.
4. What is an example of static electricity? When you rub a balloon on your head or shuffle your feet on a carpet.
Current Electricity
1. What is the particle that moves in the wire? The name of the particles that move in the wire is called electrons.
2. If there is a high current in a circuit what does that mean? It means there are more electrons moving around.
3. How does electricity work to heat up a stove? It converts electrons into heat energy
4. Where is DC electricity used? DC is used to power cars, planes, batteries, solar cells.
5. Where is AC electricity used? This type of electricity in used in homes and businesses.
