3. The origin, motion, and energy of electrons in circuits; The role of batteries as energy sources and resistors as energy dissipaters in circuits; Conceptual understanding of potential difference (i.e., voltage); Current and resistance and the relationship between them.

4. What Gives Matter a Charge?

5. Let’s see what else you remember!

6. A particle with a positive charge is called a/an _______________. proton electron neutron

7. A particle with a negative charge is called a/an _______________. proton electron neutron

8. _________ means to push away. _________ means to pull together. charge attract repel charge attract repel

9. If an electrically-neutral object GAINS electrons, what charge does it now have? positive negative neutral

10. If an electrically-neutral object LOSES electrons, what charge does it now have? positive negative neutral

11. In Chemistry, you already learned about the interaction of charges.  Objects with opposite charges (one negative, one positive) will attract each other.  Objects with like charges (both negative or both positive) will repel each other.

12. Let’s start with some vocab… Electricity Circuit Current

13. Let’s start with some vocab… Electricity- a form of energy resulting from movement of charged particles. Circuit- a loop that electrons can flow through- can be open or closed Current-a measure of the flow of electrons (how many electrons pass a point per second) (measured in Amps)

14. What is the difference between open and closed circuits?

30. What’s the Best Pathway for Electrons? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= VnnpLaKsqGU

31. There are two main types of circuits: ParallelSeries and

32. Parallel circuits are circuits with more than one pathway through which electrons can flow. Series circuits are circuits with only one pathway through which electrons can flow.

33. What type of circuits are shown in the following examples? parallelseries

34. parallelseries

35. parallelseries

36. parallelseries Holiday lights

37. Types of energy sources: Battery: -Has two TERMINALS: -One positively charged & one negatively charged -Chemical reaction occurs in the battery that separates the charges to the positive and negative sides

38. Challenge! Can you… 1.Make a series circuit with two lightbulbs? 2.Make a parallel circuit with two lightbulbs? (so that one lightbulb can be OFF while the other is ON) 3.Make a series circuit with a switch using the materials in the bag? Then a parallel circuit with a switch? 4.Determine which of the materials in the bag are electrical insulators and conductors?

39. Electric Potential Energy -This separation of charges (from the chemical reaction) causes a build up of potential energy. -Electrons flow from an area of high PE to low PE. -Just like gravitational potential energy… -Video: http://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=Aq31mjWYdJ8 http://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=Aq31mjWYdJ8

40. Battery cont -When a circuit is created, electrons flow from the negative end to the positive end -electrons are repulsed by the negative side and attracted to the positive side

41. Electrical Energy can be transferred

42. A chemical reaction inside a battery causes a separation of charges This separation of charges causes a build up of potential energy. Electrons flow from high PE to low PE. Just like gravitational potential energy… (recall video) Review from yesterday…

43. The Circuit

44. Potential Difference (voltage) Voltage is the measure of potential energy supplied to each coulomb of charge Units- volts (V) Measure with a multimeter Is dependent on the energy source NOT the circuit! the more volts a source has, the more potential energy it has. After the reading “what is voltage?”

45. Voltage is like water pressure a “force” that causes the current to flow

46. Current The rate (“speed”) at which electrons flow Unit- ampere (A) (aka “amps”) Measure with a multimeter An amp is one coulomb of charge per second

47. Resistance Opposes the rate of flow of charge Unit- Ohms (  )

48. Resistors- anything that creates resistance in a circuit. (slows down current) Can you think of any examples? Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gc1wVdbVI0Ehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gc1wVdbVI0E (only show first 3 minutes)

49. Current vs Voltage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvcwCttJjtI

50. How are resistance and current related? - Lab and worksheet

51. An amp is one coulomb of charge per second A coulomb is the unit for charge There are about 6.24x 10 18 electrons in one coulomb
