Energy associated with electrical charges
Electrical Energy: Energy associated with electrical charges Lightning, batteries, power
3
20 Coulombs 0.025 Coulombs
4
Electric Charge: Causes subatomic particles to repel or attract An excess or shortage of electrons SI unit is Coulomb 6.24 x 1018 electrons = 1 C
5
Electric Field: *The effect an electric charge has on the space around it *Strength depends upon amount of charge produced and distance from the charge
6
Ways Charges Can Be Transferred
1) Friction: 2) Contact: 3) Induction:
7
Electric Current: Continuous flow of electric charge
8
More charges flowing = greater current
9
Conductor: charge flows easily
Insulator: charge does not flow
10
Resistance: opposition to electric flow e- are colliding more so less energy is available to move through wire
11
R Resistance: The forces preventing the easy flow of electricity
SI unit: Ohm Thickness Length Temperature
12
Thickness: thicker means easier to flow… less resistance
Length: longer means further to travel… more resistance Temperature: Hot… more e- collisions so energy for moving is lost…more resistance
13
SI unit of resistance: ohm
Super Conductor: material that has almost zero resistance Hyperlink on levitation
14
Potential Difference:
Difference in electrical potential energy between 2 places because of different strengths of electrical fields
15
Voltage: The potential difference between 2 points
16
The amount of force that electricity moves through its path with
Voltage: The amount of force that electricity moves through its path with V
17
Ohm’s Law: V = volts I = current R = Resistance
18
Ohm’s Law
19
Current = I = 4 amps Resistance = 3.0 W V = IR V = 4 (3) = 12 volts
A current is 4 amps with a resistance of 3.0 ohms. Calculate the voltage of the current. Current = I = 4 amps Resistance = 3.0 W V = IR V = 4 (3) = 12 volts
