Voltage=electric potential or potential diffrence exspressed in volts. Current=used as a medium of exchange. Resistqance=an act or instance of resisting. circuit=a usually circular line encompassing an area transistors=a system used to control electricity. led= really bright lights. capacitor=a device giving capacitance. resistor=a device that has electrical resistance. switch=a flexible slender whip, rod, or twig digital electronics=sign a is by discrerte bands of analog levels integrated circuit=a lot of electronic components binary code=how the computer reads 0 and 1's circuit breaker=a switch that inturupts overloads of electricity. conductor=one that conducts.
