8-2 Electric Current
Electric current is the steady flow of electrons through a conductor. It is measured in amps. Direct current flows in one direction, while alternating current regularly reverses direction. Voltage is the "push" that causes electrons to flow and is measured in volts. Resistance slows the flow of electrons and is measured in ohms. Ohm's Law mathematically shows the relationship between current (I), voltage (V), and resistance (R) such that V=IR. Sample problems demonstrate calculating voltage, current, and resistance using Ohm's Law.
Electricity
Electricity is a form of energy resulting from the existence and flow of electric charge. It occurs naturally in lightning or can be produced in generators. Electricity has three main components - voltage, current, and resistance. Voltage is the potential energy pushing electrons through a circuit. Current is the continuous flow of electrons. Resistance prevents the flow of electrons. Electricity can be direct current, flowing in one direction, or alternating current, which switches direction periodically.
Electricity
Electricity is a form of energy resulting from charged particles like electrons or protons. An electric current is defined as the flow of electric charge between two bodies at different electric potentials through a conducting material. Originally, it was thought that electric current was caused by the motion of positive charges, but it was later discovered to be caused by the flow of electrons. The strength of an electric current is defined as the rate at which electric charges flow across a cross section of a conductor and is measured in amperes. An electric circuit is the systematic arrangement of electrical components and their connections.
Electric current
Electric current is the flow of electric charge through a conductor. It is measured in amperes (A), with common submultiples being milliamps and microamps. Current is carried by moving charge carriers like electrons or ions. The conventional definition of current direction is the same as the direction positive charges would flow, even though in metals electrons actually flow in the opposite direction. The level of current needed to induce cardiac arrest is around 100 mA to 1 A. Common household devices draw current ranging from milliamps for small electronics to amps for larger appliances.

It defines electrostatic induction as the production of electric properties in one object by another without contact. Electric fields are physical fields that surround electric charges and exert force on other charges, either attracting or repelling them. Electric potential depends on the quantity of electricity and the object's capacity, which is determined by its material and surface area. A difference of potential exists between two objects in different states of electric charge.

Dielectric materials are used in capacitors to increase capacitance by reducing the electric field between plates. Common dielectric materials include mica, ceramics, and polymers. Ferroelectric and piezoelectric materials can also interconvert electrical and mechanical energy.

Dielectric Material, Properties & Applications
A capacitor consists of two conductive plates separated by an insulating material. When a voltage is applied, opposite charges accumulate on each plate. The ability of a capacitor to store charge is known as capacitance. Capacitance depends on the plate area, distance between plates, and the dielectric material's permittivity. Dielectric materials with higher permittivity increase a capacitor's charge storage ability. Common dielectric materials include mica, ceramics, and polymers. Some materials exhibit piezoelectricity or ferroelectricity based on their polarization response to electric fields.
8-1 Electric Charge
Kinetic energy is the energy of moving objects. When a ball is thrown up, gravity converts the kinetic energy into potential energy. Gravity is directed downward with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s2. The two types of electric charge are positive and negative. Charged objects become charged through friction, conduction, or induction which leads to electric forces and fields between them.

Unit 34 Electricity
Electricity is the flow of electrons through a conductor. An electric current is produced when an outside force causes electrons to break free from atoms and flow from one atom to the next through a material. There are two types of electric current: direct current (DC), which flows in one direction, and alternating current (AC), which regularly changes direction. Electric circuits allow electric current to flow in a complete, unbroken path through components like wires, batteries, and devices.
ELECTRICITY AND MAGNETISM
Electricity can be summarized as follows:
(1) Electricity is the movement of electric charge, which is most commonly carried by electrons or ions. (2) Charged particles experience electric forces and these forces can be attractive or repulsive depending on whether the charges are opposite or the same. (3) Electricity can be generated by several methods including friction, induction, and chemical reactions. Common applications of electricity include powering devices and transmission of information.
ELECTRICITY AND MAGNETISM
Electricity is created by the interaction of positive protons and negative electrons. Electrons are attracted to protons, forming ions, and can move between atoms. Objects become electrically charged through friction, contact with another charged object, or induction, which is the redistribution of electrons. Electrical conductors like metals allow electron movement, while insulators do not. Electrical force follows Coulomb's law and is measured in volts. Electric current is the flow of electric charge through a conductor. Resistance opposes current and is measured in ohms according to Ohm's law. Electrical circuits use a voltage source to power devices by transferring energy.

Electricity is a controllable form of energy that flows through conductors to create electric circuits. An electric current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charge. The current is measured in amperes, where 1 ampere is the flow of 1 coulomb of charge per second. Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference across it, defined as work per unit charge. The constant of proportionality is the resistance of the conductor. Resistance depends on several factors related to the properties of the material.
Electricity
Static electricity is built up when certain materials are rubbed together or pulled apart, causing an imbalance of electrons between the materials. This occurs because atoms are made up of protons and electrons, and rubbing or pulling can cause some atoms to lose or gain electrons. Current electricity involves the controlled flow of electrons through a circuit. A series circuit has one path for current to flow through components in sequence, while a parallel circuit has multiple paths for current to split between.

Electricity is the flow of electrons through a closed circuit. It was discovered by William Gilbert and consists of electrons in motion. Conductors allow the flow of electricity through the presence of free electrons between atoms. Insulators do not allow electricity to flow as they lack free electrons. Electric charge, current, potential difference, and other concepts are explained along with circuits, Ohm's law, and electrical power calculations. Key formulas and relationships are defined for voltage, current, resistance, energy, and power.

Lec. 1 basics
1) Electrical charge is an electrical property of matter that exists due to an excess or deficiency of electrons. Voltage is the driving force in electric circuits and establishes current. Current is the flow of electric charge and is determined by the number of electrons that flow past a point per unit time.
2) Resistance opposes the flow of current. When current flows through a resistor, electrical energy is converted to heat or other forms of energy. Power is the rate at which energy is used and is calculated by multiplying voltage by current.
3) The kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a common unit used to measure electrical energy usage and costs. Utility companies charge customers based on the number of kWh consumed
