- If an object loses fluid it
becomes negatively
charged

Particle Model
- Everything is made of atoms
- Protons, Electrons, Nuetrons

gaining electrons

losing electrons

Particle Model
- Charges are not created or destroyed,
they are conserved
- When two materials come in contact, the
valence electrons transfer from one
material to the next

Qs 2, 3, 6, 7, 13
- An electricity current
is the movement of an
electric charge
- Involves the controlled
movement of electrons
- For electrons to
transfer, a conductor
must be used to
conduct the charge
How It Works
- A charged object is brought towards a
conductor
- A charge separation is created on the
conductor
- Called polarization
- Think of how one side of a battery
displays (+) and the other displays (-)
How It Works (Cont.)
- The charge builds up & can be released
on a conductor in short bursts
- It is not a continuous release of electrons,
just enough to keep it going
- Once all the charges are released, the
current will stop
Electric Cells
- A type of device designed
to produce electrical
charges longer than what
was previously possible
with electrostaticallycharged objects
(ex) Volta cells, dry cells,
wet cells
Volta Cell/Wet Cell
- Two different metals
were placed in a salt
or acid solution
- The chemical reaction
caused sparks without
being recharged
Volta Cell/Wet Cell
- The salt solution
contains (+) Sodium
Ions & (-) Chlorine
Ions
- The Copper gives
electrons to the (+)
Sodium ions
- Copper becomes (+)
Volta Cell/Wet Cell
- The Zinc attracts the
(-) Chlorine Ions
- Zinc becomes (-)
- The conducting loop
provides a path for
the electrons to flow
from the Zinc to the
Copper
Dry Cells
- Same idea as a wet cell
but uses a paste instead
of an acid/salt solution
- Smaller
- Easier to handle/transport

Measuring Electrical
Current
- How many charges
(electrons) past by a
given point per unit
time
- The coulomb is the unit
used when measuring
charge (C)
- 6.25 x 1018 electrons
Measuring Electrical
Current
Current = coulomb/second
- Also known as an
ampere (A)
- Commonly called amps
Measuring Electrical
Current
- Therefore, the formula
utilized is:
I = Q/t
- Where:
- I = electric current (A)
ampere
- Q = charge (C) coulomb
- t = time (usually seconds)
Math Breakdown
- List the given numbers (which variables do
you have)
- What variable is the question asking you to
find?
- Write down your formula
- Solve using algebra
- Remember units
Example One
- Given:
Q = 0.15C
t = 1s
- Calculate I
- What are the units for I?
Example Two
- A flashlight bulb has a
label that reads 0.25A.
- How many coulombs of
charge pass through the
bulb in 1 second?
Measuring Electrical
Potential
- Looks at the potential
difference between the
negative & positive
terminals
- The coulomb or joule is
the unit used when
measuring potential
- Called Volts
Measuring Electrical
Potential
- A Volt = the energy of
each charge
- If there is more charges,
there is more total
energy
- Energy = charge x
Electrical Potential
(volts)
Measuring Electrical
Current
- Therefore, the formula
utilized is:
V = E/Q
- Where:
- V = electric potential (V)
volts
- E = energy (J) joules
- Q = charge (Q) couloumbs
Example Three
- Given:
E = 86J
V = 9V
- Calculate Q:
Example Three
- How much energy can a
toaster produce when it
is plugged into a 110V
outlet with a total
charge of 25C passing
through?

Rank from
“Uses Most”
to
“Uses Least”
- Conductors emit energy
in the form of heat or
light
- Due to resistance
- The “loss” of energy in
the form of heat creates
inefficiencies
- Bad = light bulbs
- Good = stove elements
- Power = how much energy is
used in a certain amount of time
- The formula utilized for energy
consumption (aka Power) is:
P=IxV
- Where:
- P = Power (Watts)
- I = Current (Amps)
- V = Voltage (Volts)
Example One
- How much current does
a 1500W hair dryer draw
when plugged into an
110V household plug in?
-P=IxV
Example Two
- How much power is
consumed by a 17 inch
LCD screen that draws
1A at 110V?
-P=IxV

Stove: 2000W
Light Bulb: 60W
CD Player: 25 W
Vacuum: 800 W
Toaster: 900 W
TV: 200W
Microwave: 650W
- A typical household circuit breaker is
designed to allow a maximum of 15A on a 110 V
circuit.
- How much power can the circuit handle?

circuit.
- Determine if the breaker will trip if the toaster
and microwave are both being used on the
same circuit.

- 1.5kW
- By the end of a 30 day month how many hours will it
have been used if it is used for 3 minutes each day?
- 90 mins or 1.5 hours
- If it costs $0.15 to use 1 kW for an hour. How much
would it cost to operate the hair dryer for a month at
3 minutes each day. (Total = cost x kW x hrs)
