Objective: MCAS review- Electricity Homework: Go to bed early Eat a healthy breakfast
2
Take out MCAS O.R. question Compare to other students’ work What would you rate each? What would you have scored?

4
5 Main Topics of Electricity on MCAS Circuits, Circuit diagrams, series vs. parallel Ohm’s Law and Electric Power Static Electricity: Induction and Contact Coulomb's Law Electromagnetism
5
circuit diagrams In circuit diagrams components are represented by the following symbols; battery Switch (open) lamp motorammetervoltmeterresistor Switch (closed) Some diagrams use the resistor symbol as a symbol for a lamp or light (since a light bulb is in fact a resistor!) wire
6
Electrical Circuit A circuit is made up of a series of components all connected together and hooked up to a power source (such a a battery) Any openings in a circuit and the circuit will stop working! (open switch) Conductors like metal allow electricity to flow, but insulators (such as wood, plastic, rubber) stop flow of electricity.
7
The components are connected end-to-end, one after the other. They make a simple loop for the current to flow round. SERIES CIRCUITS If one bulb ‘blows’ it breaks the whole circuit and all the bulbs go out. Voltage shared, current same
8
PARALLEL CIRCUITS The current has a choice of routes. The components are connected side by side. If one bulb ‘blows’ there is still be a complete circuit to the other bulb so it stays alight. Voltage same, current shared.

Ohms Law Table
10
MCAS formula sheet only gives one Ohm’s Law formula: V = IR So, set up triangle to solve for rest: Also do same for Power: P = VI V P VI

12
Charge by Induction: -no contact -no electron transfer -charged by “influence” Charge by Contact: -contact by items -electron transfer -charged by gaining or losing electrons Contact Charging by contact vs. charging by induction.
13
Coulomb’s Law More charge = more force (multiplying together) More distance = a lot less force (dividing by square of #)
14
When current flows through a wire you get a electromagnet 3 things make magnet stronger: - More current - More loops - Metal core
