Electricity Current – in series
To know what is meant by current, charge and potential difference. Know that current in a series circuit is the same at any point To know what is meant by current, charge and potential difference. Measure the current in a circuit accurately and use it to calculate the rate of flow of electrons. Keywords: Current, potential difference, circuit, charge, amperes, coulombs Starter Which of these are correct… 1. Q = t / I 2. t = Q / I 3. I = Q x t 4. t = Q x I 5. Q = I x t 6. I = Q / t 7. Q = t x I I Starter Which of these are correct… 1. Q = t / I 2. t = Q / I 3. I = Q x t 4. t = Q x I 5. Q = I x t 6. I = Q / t 7. Q = t x I I
Know that current in a series circuit is the same at any point Explain that current in a series circuit must be the same at any point in terms of electrons not being lost from the wire. Measure the current in a circuit accurately and use it to calculate the rate of flow of electrons. Keywords: Current, potential difference, circuit, charge, amperes, coulombs Starter Now draw a circuit that can be used to measure the current in a component.
