$300 Question from Static Electricity
1. You rub a plastic comb with wool. Why will the comb then attract small bits of paper?
a. The comb has a magnetic attraction.b. The bits of paper have electric
discharge. c. The comb and paper both have a
negative charge. d. The comb has a negative charge.
$300 Answer from Static Electricity
d. The comb has a negative charge.
$400 Question from Static Electricity
when electrons move quickly from one object to another
$400 Answer from Static Electricity
Electric Discharge
$500 Question from Static Electricity
Explain what happens when you rub a balloon on your head and
then stick it to the whiteboard
$500 Answer from Static Electricity
The balloon picks up electrons from your hair giving it a negative charge, it then attracts to the positive
charge of the whiteboard
$100 Question from Circuits
Name the four parts of a circuit
$100 Answer from Circuits
Battery, wire, switch, light bulb
$200 Question from Circuits
What is the function of a battery in a circuit?
$200 Answer from Circuits
It provides the “push” to keep
electrons moving in the circuit
$300 Question from Circuits
Explain one way to change a circuit
$300 Answer from Circuits
Adding more bulbsAdd another battery Switch the wires around
$400 Question from Circuits
Explain how a bulb works
$400 Answer from Circuits
The filament wire is very thin, so electrons have a hard time passing through
When electrons do pass through, the filament becomes hot and begins to glow
$500 Question from Circuits
In which part of a circuit is electrical energy changed into other forms of energy?
a.The batteryb.The switchc.The wired.The load (anything that uses current to
work)
$500 Answer from Circuits
The load (anything that uses current to work)
$100 Question from Conductors/Insulators

Name two examples of conductors
$200 Answer from Conductors/Insulators
Copper IronGoldWaterAluminumSteel silver
$300 Question from Conductors/Insulators
An insulator is:
$300 Answer from Conductors/Insulators
An insulator is a material through which an electric
charge cannot easily flow
$400 Question from Conductors/Insulators
Give three examples of insulators
$400 Answer from Conductors/Insulators
Most plasticsGlassClothSand
RubberWoodDry air
$500 Question from Conductors/Insulators
Explain how you can test whether an object in an insulator or a
conductor
$500 Answer from Conductors/Insulators
Build a circuit
$100 Question from Magnets

$500 Question from Magnets
Name two advantages of electromagnets
$500 Answer from Magnets
1. They can be turned on and off 2. They can be made stronger or
weaker by changing the strength of the battery or wire loops
3. The direction of the fields can be changed (switch the poles) by switching the ends of the battery
