2. Highlight the key words
START OF LESSON
END OF LESSON
2.12
Explain why, when there is an electric current in a resistor, there is an energy transfer which heats the resistor
2.13
Explain the energy transfer (in 2.12 above) as the result of collisions between electrons and the ions in the lattice

5. Explore What causes resistance?
What happens to a wire when there is lots of resistance?

6. Electron Flow In Circuits

7. Explain Explain in your own words… What causes resistance?
What happens to a wire/electrons when there is resistance?

8. Explain What causes the heating in each of these picture?
Is it useful or not useful?

9. Solid atoms of the wire make it hard for the electrons (current) to flow.
When electrons collide with the electrons in the solid of the wire, they transfer some of their energy to them as heat.
We can use this usefully e.g. toaster, light bulbs
It can also be annoying as the energy is wasted.
Key Notes

10. Key Notes Resistor in series
When resistors are connected in series the resistance increase. This is because the total resistance of a number of resistors in series is equal to the sum of all the individual resistances.
In the circuit above, the following applies
I1 = I2 = I3
VT = V1 + V2 + V3
And so, therefore, RT = R1 + R2 + R3
Key Notes

11. Key Notes Resistance in parallel circuits
When resistors are connected in parallel the net resistance decreases this is because when resistors are connected in parallel, they have the same potential difference across them. In other words, any components in parallel have the same potential difference across them.
For the circuit above, the formula for finding the total resistance of resistors in parallel is 1/RT = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3
IT = I1 + I2 + I3
V1 = V2 = V3
And so 1/RT = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3
Key Notes

14. POWER = CURRENT x POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE
Extend
POWER is the amount of energy transferred each second
POWER = CURRENT x POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE
WHY does current x voltage give us power?
What do these things mean?

15. POWER = CURRENT x POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE
Extend
POWER = CURRENT x POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE
But also POWER = ENERGY
TIME
Combining these two…
P = I x V
E = I x V t
E = I x V x t

16. Power is the amount of energy transferred per second
Extend
P = I x V
E = I x V x t
Power is the amount of energy transferred per second
E is just the total energy – given by the power (IxV) multiplied by the number of seconds (time)

2.15
Use the equation:
electrical power (watt, W) = current (ampere, A) x potential difference (volt, V)
P = I x V
2.16
energy transferred (joule, J) = current (ampere, A) x potential difference (volt, V) x time (second, s)
E = I x V x t
