|
A region around a charged particle or object within which a force would be exerted on other charged particles or objects.
|
6
|
current that flows in only one direction.
|
7
|
An electric current that reverses its direction many times a second at regular intervals, typically used in power supplies.
|
8
|
Of or relating to the interrelation of electric currents or fields and magnetic fields.
|
10

The difference in electric potential between two points in an electric field; the work that has to be done in transferring unit positive charge from one point to the other, measured in volts.
|
12
|
A region around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge within which the force of magnetism acts.
|
14
|
A static electrical device that transfers energy by inductive coupling between its winding circuits.
|
15
|
A portion of a ferromagnetic material where the magnetic moments are aligned with one another because of interactions between molecules or atoms.
|
16
|
Either of the two points on the earth's surface where the dipping needle of a compass stands vertical, one in the arctic, the other in the antarctic.

|
1
|
A device that converts any form of energy into mechanical energy, especially an internal-combustion engine or an arrangement of coils and magnets that converts electric current into mechanical power.
|
2
|
The rate at which energy is transferred, used, or transformed.
|
3
|
A nonconductor of sound, heat, or electricity.
|
4
|
A machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
|
5
|
Total resistance of all the individual resistances in a circuit.
|
9
|
A component of an electrical circuit that resists the flow of electrical current.
