1) Electrostatic charges involve the attraction and repulsion of objects based on whether they have equal or opposite charges. Charges are used in photocopiers, dust precipitators, and defibrillators. 2) Electricity involves the flow of electrons through conductors. The resistance of materials can change based on factors like temperature. Common circuit components include resistors, diodes, and capacitors. 3) Digital and analog signals are used to transmit information. Digital signals use 1s and 0s while analog signals have continuously varying values. Multiplexing and sampling allow more data to be transmitted.
