DIRECTIONS: Kindly fill-up the questions with the right answers. (30 POINTS).

1. What is Electricity? (2pts.) – it is a secondary energy source, we sometimes get it

from primary resources

2. What is Electric Charge? (2pts.) – it can be positive or negative, it occurs in

discrete natural units

3. What is Electric Discharge? (2pts.) - an electric discharge is the release and

transmission of electricity

4. What are Electric Fields? (2pts.) - property associated with each point in space
when charge is present in any form

5. What is Van de Graaff Generator? Explain. (5pts.) - a machine devised to

produce a high voltage

6. What are Electric Currents and Electric Circuits? (2pts.) - electric current is the
overall movement of charged particles in one direction, electric circuits transfers
energy from the battery to the circuit components

7. What are electric resistance and voltage? (2pts.) voltage transfers energy from
the battery to the circuit components, electric resistance is a material's tendency
to resist the flow of charge

8. Explain Ohm’s Law. Give an example of how it is used. (3pts.) - states that the
current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the
voltage across the two points

9. What are the parts of electric circuit? (5 pts.) - energy source (AC or DC) a
conductor (wire), an electrical load (device), and at least one controller (switch)

10. Explain electric safety. Give 5 points with how you can be safe with electricity.
