Electricity
Composition of matter Electrical Charge Current flow Voltage Source Cells & Batteries Resistance & Conductance Electric Circuits
Matter Every object is made of matter – Atoms Nucleus – Protons – Neutrons Electrons
Electrical Charge
What is Electricity Form of Energy like sound or heat It is the movement of charged atomic particles – Basically, electrons moving from one atom to another
How do you measure electricity Current- a flow of electricity through a conductor (Volume) – Amps Voltage – electrical force (Pressure) – Volts
Electrical Sources Batteries Outlets
Batteries
Conductors & Resistors Conductor - object or type of material which permits the flow of electric charges Resistor - anything that electricity can not travel through easily
Electric Circuits A path for electricity to flow. – Series – One path – Parallel – multiple paths
