New cards
Electricity
________: The movement of electrons, an invisible force that provides light, heat, sound, and motion.
2
New cards
Resistors
________= components that create ________- dims the light.
3
New cards
Electrons
________ flow out of negative ide of battery through circuit tend back to the positive side of battery.
4
New cards
Voltage
Ohms Law: ________= Resistance x Current or V= IR.
5
New cards
Electron Flow
________ is actually what happens.
6
New cards
Conventional Current
________: assumes that current flows out of the positive side of the batter through the circuit and back to the negative side of the batter.
7
New cards
Elements
At the atomic level: ________: simplest form of matter.
8
New cards
Sum of all voltage drops
What is equal to the total applied voltage- V total= V1 + V2 + V3,
9
New cards
Total resistance
What is equal to the sum of all the resistances: Total R= R1 + R2 + R3,
10
New cards
flow of electrical charge
Current- Amps- A: The ________ measured in Amperes (A) like water: tank= battery, pipe= wiring, faucet= switch, switch closed-> stops all electrons (100s and 1000s) from leaving SO open circuit= uncomplete path= no current= no flow || closed circuit= complete path= current= flow of electrons.

Electrons orbitals
________: orbits in which electrons move around nucleus of an atom- valence electrons determines whether element is conductor or insulator- 1st= 8, 2nd= 8, 3rd= 18- 8 tends to be magic number in orbital- as orbits filled go further and further from nucleus EX: 29 [total electrons]- 2- 8- 18= 1 Valence Electron.
