Electric Currents & Circuits AP – Ch 20 & 21
3
Teaching LAB YOU teach – Simple Circuit – Series Circuit – Parallel Circuit – Combo Circuit – Kirchoff’s Laws
4
Ch 20 & 21 Outline 1 st Half of PPTX – New stuff from OpenStax text 2 nd Half – My old stuff
6
Current
7
Figure 20.2 The rate of flow of charge is current. An ampere is the flow of one coulomb through an area in one second.
9
Note Direction of I…
10
Conventional Current Physical Current + + - -
12
Ohm’s Law
13
Started as two proportions – I through a RESISTOR V drop – I through a RESISTOR 1/R of resistor Put together:
15
Ohmic Material Any material where R is independent of I and V – Most metals & common conductors
17
Resistivity
20
Electrical Power
21
Intro Stuff Power – Same as regular P, but different
22
Intro Stuff Power …
25
Sect 20.6: Hume Bean Hazards
26
Ch 21: Circuits
45
Intro Stuff Electromotive Force – emf Maximum V of battery Current – Flow of charge
46
Intro Stuff
48
Ohm ’ s Law – States linear relationship between V & R
50
Intro Stuff Resistance – Says what it means e - has to ‘ fight ’ thru a wire or ‘ resistor ’
52
Intro Stuff Resistance – Radio Shack SCAM!
