Voltage
This is the unit of measurement for voltage.
What is a volt?
Define current.
What is the amount of electric charge passing a point in a conductor every second?
This is the unit of measurement for electrical resistance.
What is an ohm
This type of circuit has more than one pathway for current to flow.
What is parallel circuit?
The class we are in right now.
What is Science 10?
Function of a battery.
Converting chemical energy into electrical energy.
What are the 4 basic components of a circuit?
Source, Conductor, Loaf & Switch
Define resistance.
What is the property of a material to slow down the flow of electrons?
Adding a resistor in parallel to an existing resistor does this to the total resistance.
What is it decreases?
Ms. Burke favorite subject.
What is chemistry?
These are the parts of the battery.
Electrodes and electrolyte
Define current electricity.
What is the flow of electric charge through a complete circuit?
A load has a resistance of 12Ω and is connected to a 90V power supply, this is the current through the load in amperes.
What is 7.5A?
The location in a parallel circuit where the circuit branches into more pathways or where pathways rejoin.
What is a junction point?
How many degrees does Ms.Burke have?
What is 2 degrees?
The potential difference across each branch in this type of circuit is the same as the source voltage.
What is a parallel circuit?
The conventional current is described as the following.
Originally thought to be the flow of positive charge from positive to negative, while in reality, electrons flow from negative to positive.
A device draws 1.2A of current at 120V. This is the resistance of the device in Ohms.
What is 100 Ohms?
The total current entering a junction point is this compared to the total current leaving the junction point
What is equal to?
The unit we have covered in this class
What is nuclear technology, chemistry & electricity
In a series circuit, this happens to the total voltage across all components.
What is it equal the sum of the individual voltage drops?
In a parallel circuit, the total current leaving the battery is this compared to the currents in individual branches.
Adding a resistor in this type of circuit increases the total resistance.
What is a series circuit?
In a series circuit, this happens to the total voltage supplied by the battery.
What is it equals the sum of the voltage drops across all components?
The name of Ms. Burke shark.
What is Hank
