• There are two teams.• One game show host.• Two people come up to stand and are asked

a question. Whoever hits the table first gets to answer. If they get it wrong they lose a point. Then it goes to the other person. If they get it right then you get a point.

• You play till the questions run out.

1. As resistance increases what decreases?

A. Power

B. Current

C. Amps

D. Resistance

Answer

• The answer is current.

Current decreases because because there is more things for the electrons to slow down on.

2. As voltage increases what also increases?

A. Power

B. Voltage

C. Amps

D. Resistance

Answer

• The answer is C, amps.

It is amps because they are directly related.

3. The rate at which energy is transferred is?

A. Electrical Current

B. Amperes

C. Power

D. Voltage

Answer

• The answer is A, Electrical Current.

4. The equivalent resistance of a parallel circuit is found by?

A. The sum of all the resistors in the circuit.

B. By finding the reciprocals of the resistance values, and then taking the reciprocal of the total

C. The lowest resistor in the circuit D. The largest resistor in the circuit

Answer

The answer is B.

By finding the reciprocal of the resistance values and the taking the reciprocal of the total will give you the equivalent resistance.

5. What is the measurement that utility companies use to measure

energy?• A. Kilowatt Hours

• B. Joulo-watt Hours

• C. Nacho Cheese

• D. Watt-Seconds

Answer

• The answer is A.

• Kilowatt Hours because that is the easiest way to measure it in.

6. In a single series circuit, if the power goes up, Current______?

• A. Goes up

• B. Stays the same

• C. Goes down

• D. Brown Bear

Answer

• The answer is B.

• The current stays the same because amps always stays the same in a single circuit.

7. Circuit breakers open when the ______ reaches a certain level?

• A. Voltage

• B. Current

• C. Power

• D. Pokemon

Answer

• The answer is B.

When the electrons are flowing to fast the circuit opens to stop the flow and prevents a fire.

8. Resistance is measured in ______?

A. Newton's

B. Watts

C. Joules

D. Ohms

Answer

• The answer is D.

9. Conventional current flows in what direction?

• A. Protons flowing from + to -.

• B. Protons flowing from – to +.

• C. Electrons flowing from + to -.

• D. Upwards in a giant glass elevator.

Answer

• The answer is A.

10. What is an example of a resistor?

• A. Plastic

• B. Light Bulb

• C. Kitten

• D. Volt meter

Answer

• The answer is B, Light bulb.

11. What is the best bear?

Answer

• False, Brown Bear.
