  1. Electricity Review

  2. A closed circuit: a.is off. b.is on. c.hasa break in it.

  3. Positive electric charges: a.attractboth positive charges and negative charges. b.repelpositive charges and attract negative charges. c.attractpositive charges and repel negative charges.

  4. Suppose you rub an inflated party balloon on a carpet, hold the balloon next to a wall, and discover that it "sticks" to the wall. Why did the balloon stick to the wall? a.Likecharges on the balloon and wall cause an attraction between the two. b.Balloonscontain a special "atomic glue" that allows them to cling to other objects. c.Excesscharge builds up on the balloon and electrostatic forces allow the balloon and wall to be attracted to one another because they are oppositely charged.
