2Chapter 20 Electricity
- SPS10 Students will investigate the properties of
electricity and magnetism. - Investigate static electricity in terms of
friction, induction, conduction - Explain the flow of electrons in terms of
- -alternating and direct current
- -the relationship among voltage, resistance, and
current - -simple series and parallel circuits
320.1 Electric Charge and Static Electricity
- What produces a net electric charge?
- What determines whether an electric force is
attractive or repulsive? - What determines the strength of an electric
field. - What are three ways in which charge is
transferred. - How does static discharge occur?
420.1 Charge and Statics What produces a net
electric charge?
- Electric Charge a property that causes protons
and electrons to attract or repel each other - Two types
- Positive - protons
- Negative electrons
- An excess or shortage of electrons causes atoms
to be charged - That causes objects to be charged
520.1 Charge and Statics What determines whether
an electric force is attractive or repulsive?
- Electric Force force of attraction or
repulsion between electrically charged
objects - Like charges repel (positve-positive,
or negative-negative) - Opposite charges attract
(negative-positive)
620.1 Charge and Statics What determines the
strength of an electric field?
- Electric Field the space around a charged
particle where it will push or pull another
charge - Depends on
- Amount of charge
- Distance from the charge
- Drops off rapidly (square of the
distance)
720.1 Charge and Statics What are the three ways
in which charge is transfered?
- Static Electricity charges that are not moving
- Law of conservation of charge the total amount
of charge stays the same - Remember that charge is caused by
protons and electrons
820.1 Charge and Statics What are the three ways
in which charge is transfered?
- There are three ways that charge is transffered
- Friction
- Two uncharge objects rub against each other
- Electrons are pulled off one object and placed on
the other - Contact
- A charged object comes in contact with an
uncharged object - The charged object loses charge until they both
have the same charge
920.1 Charge and Statics What are the three ways
in which charge is transfered?
- There are three ways that charge is transffered
- Induction
- Electrons in an object are attracted or
repelled by a charge - This causes a temporary charge in a
neutral object
10S-67 Students will investigate the properties of
electricity and magnetism?
- What are the two types of charges?
- What are the two basic charged particles?
- How does a charge form?
1120.1 Charge and Statics How does static discharge
occur?
- Electrons will flow if there is a conducting
pathway - Static discharge when a pathway between charged
objects is formed - Shocking yourself on a doorknob
- Lighting bolt
1220.2 Electric Current and Ohms Law
- What are the two types of current?
- What are some examples of conductors and
insulators? - What factors affect electrical resistance?
- What causes and electric current?
- How are voltage, current, and resistance related?
1320.2 Current and Ohms Law What are the two types
of current?
- Electric Current the flow of charge
- Two types
- Direct Current
- Flows in only one direction
- Electricity from batteries
- Alternating current
- Changes direction in a regular pattern
- Has frequency (usually 60 Hz)
- Household electricity
1420.2 Current and Ohms Law What are some examples
of conductors and insulators?
- Electrical conductor material that charge flows
through easily - Metals
- Graphite
- Salt solutions
- Electrical insulator material that charge does
not flow through easily - Plastics
- Rubber
1520.2 Current and Ohms Law What factors affect
electrical resistance?
- Resistance opposition to the flow of charge
- Resistors use up the energy in electricity
- Measured in Ohm (W)
- Three factors affect resistance
- Thickness thicker objects have less resistance
- Lenth longer objects have more resistance
- Temperature resistance increases with
temperature
1620.2 Current and Ohms Law What causes an
electric current?
- Voltage (Potential Difference) difference in
potential energy between two points - Units are volts (V)
- Produced by sources of electric energy
- A potential difference placed across a loop of
conductor will result in a current - Current is measured in Amperes or Amps (A)
1720.2 Current and Ohms Law How are voltage,
current, and resistance related?
- Ohms Law current is equal to potential divided
by resistance - V potential difference in volts (V)
- I current in amps (A)
- R resistance in Ohms (W)

current, and resistance related?

120VI(96W)
20S-68 How are voltage, current, and resistance
related?
- A toaster is plugged into a 120 V wall outlet.

resistor?
21S-69 What factors affect electrical resistance?
- What three factors determine the resistance of an
object? - How does resistance change as each factor changes?
