Coulomb of charge (electrons) Think of it as a “bag of electrons” (containing 6250000000000000000 electrons!) ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺
3
Current The number of Coulombs flowing past a point in the circuit every second. ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ A I’m counting how many coulombs of electrons go past me every second 1 Amp = 1 coulomb per second
4
Voltage(emf) ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ V I’m checking the difference in energy (per coulomb) between the 2 red arrows 1 Volt = 1 Joule per coulomb
5
Voltage (p.d.) ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ V I’m checking the difference in energy (per coulomb) before and after the lamp 1 Volt = 1 Joule per coulomb

Draw the sentence 1.Electricity is the flow of electrons. 2.We measure the quantity of electrons in Coulombs. 3.One Amp means one Coulomb of electrons flows round every second. 4.The electrons carry energy from the cell to the lamp. 5.The electrons then return to the cell to get more energy. 6.The electrons are NOT used by the lamp. 7.Voltage measures the amount of energy each coulomb receives or gives. 8.Physics is the most important subject Science subject!

10
Lamp
11
Resistance of a filament lamp Resistance increases as the current increases (because the wire gets hot) Current Voltage
12

15
Resistor
16
Variable resistor (rheostat)
17
Bell/buzzer
18
Thermistor Resistance decreases with increasing temperature Temp Resistance
19
Light-dependent resistor (LDR) High resistance in the dark but a low resistance in light
20
Diode Allows current to flow in one direction only (from + to – in the direction of the “arrow)
21
Current The number of Coulombs flowing past a point in the circuit every second. ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ A I’m counting how many coulombs of electrons go past me every second 1 Amp = 1 coulomb per second Can you COPY the blue writing please?
22
Current I = Q/t Where I = current in Amps Q = charge (# of electrons) in Coulombs t = time in seconds
23
In a series circuit Current is the same at any point in the circuit 2.5 A
24
In a parallel circuit The current splits (total current stays the same) 2.5 A 1.25 A
25
Milliamps! 1 A = 1000 mA 1 mA = 0.001 A
26
Current The number of Coulombs flowing past a point in the circuit every second. I = Q/t ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ A I’m counting how many coulombs of electrons go past me every second 1 Amp = 1 coulomb per second Can you copy this please?
27
Voltage(emf) ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ V I’m checking the difference in energy (per coulomb) between the 2 red arrows 1 Volt = 1 Joule per coulomb
28
Voltage (p.d.) ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺ V I’m checking the difference in energy (per coulomb) before and after the lamp 1 Volt = 1 Joule per coulomb
29
Voltage Voltage is the amount of energy transferred (changed) per coulomb of charge. 1 Volt = 1 Joule per coulomb A voltmeter connected across the component
30
In a series circuit The sum of the voltages across the lamps equals the voltage across the cells 9 V 3 V
31
In a parallel circuit In a simple parallel circuit, voltage across each lamp equals the voltage across the cells 5 V
32
Resistance Measures how difficult it is for current to flow. Measured in Ohms (Ω) VA Resistance = voltage/currentR = V/I
33
Ohm’s Law V = IR V R I X
34
Resistance of a lamp AV Resistance = voltage/currentR = V/I Vary the voltage and current using a variable resistor (rheostat). Plot a graph of resistance against current
35
Power The amount of energy used by a device per second, measured in Watts (Joules per second) VA Power = voltage x currentP = VI
36
Example A 200 W television is plugged into the 110V mains. What is the current in the television? I = P/V = 200/110 = 1.8A P I V X
37
Total energy So the total energy transformed by a lamp is the power (J/s) times the time the lamp is on for in seconds, E = VIt E = energy transformed (J) V = Voltage (also called p.d.) I = current (A) t = time (s)
38
Example A kettle uses 240V and 8A. What is its power? P = VI = 240x8 = 1920W (=1.9kW) How much energy does the kettle use in 5 minutes? E = VIt = 240x8x300 = 576000 J P I V X
39
Alternating current Current changes direction 50 times a second.
40
Fuse Thin piece of wire which melts if the current is too high If a fault develops, this thin piece of wire melts if the current is too high Circuit breakers are sometimes used instead
41
Earth wire Connects metal body of appliance to earth If a live wire comes loose, current flows to earth and blows the fuse
42
Double insulation Some appliances have no earth wire because they have a plastic outer case The plastic case acts as an extra layer of insulation around the wires
43
Electrostatics 1. There are two types of electric charge (positive and negative) Hi! Hola!
44
Electrostatics 2. Opposites attract
45
Electrostatics 3. Static charges can be produced by the action of friction on an insulator Plastic, amber, glass, Perspex

48
Electrostatics 6. Objects are charged negative by the gain of electrons Only electrons move, that’s why they call it electricity! cloth
