Michael Faraday Word Search
Play a Michael Faraday word search free online. We built the 12-word list around the life, work, and legacy of a famous figure, then scattered it across a 15×15 grid — horizontal, vertical and diagonal. Find them all to clear the board.
Words to find: INDUCTION, ELECTROLYSIS, FIELD, FORCE, DYNAMO, GENERATOR, MOTOR, MAGNET, CURRENT, VOLTAGE, ROTATION, LINES.
Found words stay highlighted, so the grid gets easier to read as you go and the final few tend to fall quickly.
Michael Faraday word list, defined
- INDUCTION /ɪnˈdʌkʃən/ · noun, verb
- The process of drawing a conclusion based on evidence or observation. The act of introducing someone or something to a new situation or activity. Related: initiation, introduction, inductance, induct.
- ELECTROLYSIS /ɪˌlɛkˈtrɒlɪsɪs/ (UK), /ɪˌlɛkˈtrɑːləsɪs/ (US) · noun
- A process in which a direct electric current is passed through an electrolyte to bring about a chemical reaction, typically decomposing a compound into its constituent elements; also, the removal of body hair by destroying hair follicles with an electric current. Related: electrochemical decomposition, ionization, galvanolysis, electrolytic separation.
- FIELD /fiːld/ · noun (also verb)
- An area of open land, especially one used for growing crops or grazing animals; more broadly, a sphere of activity, interest, or study, and in physics a region of space in which a particular force is exerted. Related: meadow, pasture, paddock, domain.
- FORCE /fɔːrs/ · noun
- Physical strength, energy, or power exerted on an object or person; also, coercion or compulsion, or an organized body such as a police or military force. Related: power, strength, might, energy.
- DYNAMO /ˈdaɪnəmoʊ/ · noun
- A dynamo is a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, especially a direct-current generator. Informally, a dynamo is a person who is exceptionally energetic, forceful, and productive. Related: generator, live wire, go-getter, powerhouse.
- GENERATOR /ˈdʒɛnəreɪtər/ · noun
- A device or system that generates something, such as electricity or a signal. A person or thing that produces something, such as ideas or solutions. Related: producer, source, origin, creator.
- MOTOR /ˈmoʊtər/ · noun, verb
- A machine that converts energy into motion or power, typically using a self-contained power source. To propel or drive something, typically using a machine. Related: engine, motorcycle, generator, turbine.
- MAGNET /ˈmæɡnɪt/ · noun
- A natural object that produces a magnetic field, or a device that produces a magnetic field for various purposes, such as lifting or moving objects. Related: lodestone, magnetic, pole, attraction.
- CURRENT /ˈkʌrənt/ · noun, adjective
- As a noun, current denotes a steady flow of water or air in a definite direction, or the flow of electric charge through a conductor. As an adjective, it describes something belonging to, happening in, or generally accepted at the present time. Related: present, contemporary, flow, stream.
- VOLTAGE /ˈvɒltɪdʒ/ · noun
- The potential difference in electric potential energy between two points in a circuit, measured in volts. A measure of the energy required to move a unit of electric charge from one point to another. Related: electric potential, potential difference, electromotive force, voltage drop.
- ROTATION /ˌroʊtəˈʃən/ · noun, verb
- The act of rotating or the state of being rotated. A change in direction or position around a central point. Related: turn, revolve, pivot, spin.
- LINES /ˈlaɪnz/ · noun, verb
- A line is a set of points that extend infinitely in two directions. To line something means to arrange it in a straight row or to cover the surface of something with a layer of something else. Related: row, array, sequence, string.
