Electric current is energized electrons (electric charge) moving through a conductor A cell stores energy in free electrons by chemical reaction between two different materials: NEED: metal to lose electrons – (+) electrode (cathode) metal to gain electrons – (-) electrode (anode) chemically reacting substance – electrolyte

Rod: (+) electrode (cathode) Casing: (-) electrode (anode) electrolyte paste The original Voltaic “wet” cell does not have practical use today and has been replaced by the “dry” cell - battery

1. Voltage (V) Energy potential of electrons created by a source: called electrical potential (energy) moving electrons convert this potential into work Electrons are measured and counted in bundles called a coulomb: 1 coulomb = 6.25 quintillion (6.25 x ) electrons Cell Measurements: Think of a coulomb as very large “dozen”

E is energy/work done in joules Q is the number of coulombs Measured by a Voltmeter Units: Volt (V) As electrons move to the other end of the source they lose all potential (stored) energy V= Q E Voltage (volts) measures the potential energy or work done by a coulomb of electrons

(+) electrode (-) electrode electrolyte paste 1.5 Volt battery 1.5 Volts 0 Volts 1.5 joules of work performed by every coulomb of electrons 550 V – typical Power station 120 V – typical wall outlet 1.5 V – typical battery

2. Current (I) The rate (speed) of electrons moving passed a point in the conductor. Q is the number of coulombs t is time in seconds Measured by an Ammeter Units: Amperes /Amps (A) I= t Q Current (amps) measures the amount of electrons passing a point every second

0.83 A – current needed to light a 100W bulb 0.2 A – severe burns, heart stops, lungs stop (“let go” threshold) 0.02 A – breathing affected, muscles contract A– muscles tingle (good shock) Its not the voltage that kills, it’s the current: the amount of electrons running through you 1 Amp = electrons moving at a rate of 1 coulomb per second

3. Resistance (R) Anything that slows down electrons and takes potential energy away in the process. lost energy usually converted to heat The loss of potential energy as electrons slow through a resistor is called the “voltage drop” Resistors are electrical components used to control the current and voltage to protect the device. Units: ohm (Ω)

●● + - e-e- e-e- Load a resistor that converts energy for use Resistor slows electrons and take energy as heat Even the conducting wire provides some resistance – takes some energy away converting it to heat
