Questions and Answers

What form of energy does a motor convert electrical energy into?

  • Light
  • Heat
  • Potential energy
  • Motion and heat (correct)

    • Which statement about the flow of electrons is correct?

  • Conventional current is said to flow in the same direction as the net electron flow.
  • Electrons have negative charge and will migrate towards the more positive charge area. (correct)
  • Electrons have negative charge and will migrate towards the more negative charge area.
  • Electrons have positive charge and flow from the more positive to the more negative area.

    • What is the relationship between resistance and conductance according to the text?

  • Resistance and conductance are unrelated properties of materials.
