Charge and current
The charge of electricity is measured in the unit coulomb (C).
There is a link between the charge and current:
If the charge flows at this rate: Then the current is:1 coulomb per second 1 ampere2 coulombs per second 2 amperesetc.
The equation is therefore the following:
Charge = current x time (C) = (A) x (s)

An electrical cell makes electrons (e-) move. An example of an electrical cell is a battery.
CurrentA flow of charge is called a current. A charge is the flow of electrons through matter.
The SI unit to measure the strength of a current is ampere (A)
More or less 6.000.000.000.000.000.000 e- flow round a circuit per second to give a strength of 1 A.
For smaller currents milliamperes (mA) are used as a unit. 1000mA = 1A

Current directionMost circuit diagrams, like the one below, have an arrow indicating the direction of the current flow. The flow always goes from positive to negative round the circuit.
As electrons are negatively charged they are repelled by the negatively charged side of the cell and go therefore in the opposite direction as the current flow.

The potential differece (PD) or voltage
The scientific name for voltage is potential difference (PD)
The higher the voltage the more energy a cell gives to the electrons it pushes out.
The PD is measured in volt (V).
If the PD accross a cell is 1 volt, then 1 joule of potential energy are given to each coulomb of charge. So 1 volt = 1 joule per coulomb 1V=(j/C)
To produce a higher PD, cells can be put in series.
Cells in parallel and in series

When batteries are connected in series you have to sum up their voltage.
The voltage tells you how much energy is given per Coulomb.
So if you connect batteries in series, the voltage given is the sum of all.

Resistance
The resistance of a material indicates how well it is able to prevent the electrons from flowing through it.
The resistance is calculated with the following equation:
Resistance ( ) = ΩCurrent through conductor (A)
PD accros the conductor (V)
So the lower the resistance, the less PD is needed to give the same current
For example if a PD of 6 V is needed to make a current of 3A flow through a wire the resistance would be: 6V/3A= 2Ω
1 kilohm (kΩ) = 1000 Ω1 megaohm (MΩ) = 1.000.000 Ω

Ohm’s law1. Calculate the resistance of a conductor
through which a current of 2 A flows with a PD of 12V.
2. Calculate the PD between the extremes of a conductor with a resistance of 10 Ω and a current of 7.5 A.
3. Calculate the intensity of a current which circulates through a conductor with a resistance of 10 Ω, if the PD between its extremes 0.02 mV.

Series and Parallel circuits
Bulbs in series·The bulbs share the PD (V) from the battery, bulbs glow dimly·If one bulb would be removed, the would go out because the circuit is broken.
Bulbs in parallel·Each gets the full PD from the battery because they are both connected directly to it.·If one bulb would be removed teh other would keep on working becasue the circuit isn't broken

Power
Power = energy transformed time taken
W= Joules/SecondsFor electrical energy we use the unit kwh (Kilowatt per hour)
1 kw= 1000 watts
1kwh= 1Kw per h
or kwh= kw h
![Page 16: Electricity, without notes, without answers](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54b676564a79595f448b45a4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Electrical Power
Power = PD x current
Watt = Volt x Ampere
or
P= VI
So for a battery:Power = 12V x 2A = 24W
For bulb A: 8V x 2A = 16W
For bulb B: 4V x 2A = 8W
