What is Charge?Protons have a (+) charge
Electrons have a (-) charge
Charge (q) is measured in Coulombs
The elementary charge of one (+) or (-) is 1.6 x 10-19 C
1 Coulomb = 6.25 x1018 electrons
Opposite Charges Attract
Like Charges Repel

Static Electricity
the accumulation of excess electrons on an object

CurrentThe flow of charges, usually electrons, through a wire or conductor is called electric current
Electric current is measured in amperes (A).
Potential Difference is the push that causes charges to move.
Voltage is measured in Volts (V)

ResistanceThe greater the restriction of charges to flow the lower the amount current that can flow.
Resistance is measured in ohms (Ω)
The length, diameter, and temperature of a wire influences it’s resistance.
Types of resistors:Light bulbsDoor bellsAny electrical device

Types of Currents
Direct Current (dc) is the type of electricity that we get from batteries.
In a direct current all of the electric charges move in one direction.

Types of CurrentAlternating Current (ac) is the type of electricity that we get from plugs in the wall.
In an alternating current all of the electric charges switch their direction of flow back and forth.

Ohm’s Law
V = I R
I = V / R
R = V / I
Ohm’s Law – the current in a circuit equals the voltage difference divided by the resistance.

Ohm’s Law
I = Current (Amperes)
V = Potential Difference (volts)
R = Resistance (ohms Ω)

Total Resistance in Circuits
Series
RS = R1 + R2 + R3 + …
Total resistance increases as more
resistors are added to the series circuit
Parallel
1/RP = 1/R1 + 1/R2 +1/R3 +…
Total resistance decreases as more
resistors are added to the parallel circuit
