All matter is made up of tiny particles called __________________, which are made up of even tinier particles called protons, neutrons, and electrons. An _________________ is a particle with a negative charge which can move from atom to atom and from one object to another.
static , electron
atoms , neutrons
atoms, electrons
cells, protons
The number of electrons on the surface of an object can make it have a negative charge or a positive charge. If the surface has more electrons, the object is negatively charged (-). If the surface has fewer electrons, it has a positive charge (+). A negative charge can build up on an object when electrons move to it from another object. This build up of electric charge on an object is called ________________ ___________________ .
Current electricity
Static electricity
Electric circuit
Electric force
If the built up charge is strong enough, static electricity may "jump" from one object to another. We call this "jump" and electric ________________ , and it can give a quick shock.
circuit
current
discharge
outlet
Electrical energy also involves the movement of electrons. When you turn on a TV or toast a piece of bread, electrons flow through wires to the TV or toaster. This flow of electrons through a wire is called an electric ____________________ .
discharge
circuit
static
current
To be useful, electric energy must change into other forms of energy. Electrical energy can change into light, heat, sound, and motion. When you switch on a light, electric current flows through wires to the light bulb. The current causes a wire or gas inside the bulb to give off light. The bulb also gives off heat.
true
