1 In some materials, there are electrons
which are free to move (1) randomly in all directions.
These electrons are called (2)
free electrons.
2 The
free electrons in a metal wire are ‘driven’ to flow in the (3) same direction when there
is a dry cell in the circuit.
3 The free electrons flow from the (4) negative pole of the dry cell
to the (5) positive pole. The flow of
these free electrons forms an (6) electric
current.
4 An
(7) ammeter is an
instrument used for measuring the size of an electric current.
5 Electric current is measured in (8) ampere (A). Small electric currents
are measured in milliamperes (mA).
6 We should
always connect the (9) positive terminal of
the ammeter towards the positive pole of the dry cell and the (10) negative terminal
towards the negative pole.

1. In the
diagram below, draw wires to show how the circuit should be connected in order
to measure the electric current flowing through the circuit. Indicate the
positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the ammeter.
