It means a substance that does not conduct electricity (does not allow electricity to flow through it).
Electricity is the flow of electrons across a conductor. A conductor can be many things, copper is one of the most efficient. Voltage is what moves the electrons. It works like the pressure that pushes water through a hose.
When a light bulb burns out it no longer makes light. This is because there is no way to connect the flow of electricity.
Direct current is a flow of electricity which only goes one way. Batteries, for example, produce direct current, so the current must flow all the way through a circuit and back into the battery to work. Alternating current is what comes out of a wall outlet, and it alternates in both directions, with current flowing in and out of the outlet.
Electricity only works when it can flow all the way around a loop called a circuit. Turning off a switch breaks the circuit, stopping the flow and turning electrical things off. Turning a switch on joins the circuit and makes them work again.
resistance
It is hard for electric charges to get through.

series circuit
It flows from higher potential to lower potential. simply opposite to direction of electrons flow...
No. A diode can not be used as a transistor. A diode allows electricity to flow in one direction like a one way street. A transistor works the same way as putting a stop light in the one way street. It lets electricity flow at certain times and keeps electricity from flowing at certain times. Of course a diode only works when electricity is there to flow just like a one way street only works when there are cars there to ride through it.
from left to right. positive side pushes and negative side pulls.
Electricity is the flow of electrons through a cable. Electronics is set of conductors and semi-conductors (again kind of cables) through which electrons flow in specific way, needed by the machine.
"I'm in a pickle" is a way of saying "I'm in a difficult situation."
In the simplest form; The difference between a complete and incopmlete circuit is... Complete means that electricity CAN and WILL flow through it where as with an incomplete circuit does not have the ability to conduct current is broken... Here is an example. -----/----- Incomplete cicuit, something preventing electricity to flow ----------- complete circuit, electricity can flow.

The current is the flow of electrons The voltage is the push the power source gives to the electrons to make the current faster. The flow of electrons is electricity HI!! By the way I am amazing! Trust me.
