For $100… Electric charges can be both _______ and _______.

And the answer is… Positive and negative

For $200… When electricity takes the quickest path in a circuit, a way that it is not supposed to go, it is called a…

And the answer is… Short circuit

For $300… The area surrounding a charged object…

And the answer is… Electic field

For $400… An electron has a ______ charge.

And the answer is… Negative charge

For $100…DAILY DOUBLE! This is the continuous path an electric current takes.

And the answer is… Electric circuit

For $200… The fight against the flow of an electic current.

And the answer is… Resistance

For $300… A circuit that only has one path is called:

And the answer is… A series circuit

For $400… A circuit that has more than one path for an electic current to take is called:

And the answer is… Parallel circuit

For $100… When an electric current cannot flow through a circuit, it is likely because the circuit is ____________.

And the answer is… open

For $200… When an electric current can flow freely through an electric circuit, it because the circuit is ____________.

And the answer is… closed

For $300… The build up of charges in one place is called

And the answer is… static

For $400… When a build up of charges is suddenly released, this will occur…

And the answer is… A shock

For $100… If a balloon has more negative than positive charges, it is has a _________ charge.

And the answer is… negative

For $200… If a sock has more positive charges than negative charges, the sock has a ____________ charge.

And the answer is… positive

For $300… If a piece of cloth has an equal number of positive and negative charges, the cloth has a ___________ charge.

And the answer is… neutral

For $400… If a sock is positively charged and a balloon is positively charged, then they will _______________ each other.

And the answer is… repel

For $100… Why are electrical outlets usually covered with plastic?

And the answer is… Plastic is an insulator and it will prevent the electrical outlet from short circuiting if a conductor were to touch it on the outside.

For $200… Samantha rubs a piece of neutral cloth across a neutral balloon many times. What is she doing to the cloth and balloon?

And the answer is… Charging them

For $300… Do the positive or negative charges move when objects are becoming charged?

And the answer is… negative

For $400… Why are houses not designed with a series circuit running through them?

And the answer is… Because a series circuit has only one path, so if one thing is not working, then nothing electric in the house will work.

Final Jeopardy Draw a series circuit and a parallel circuit. Explain what will happen if a light bulb were taken out of each, and why.

What did you wager? ?????
