Concepts Summary:

Electric Current and Circuit Chapter 20.1-7 and Chapter 21.1, 21.2, 21.4

1

Name Electric Current

*Describe IYOW Rate of flow of charges

2

Ampere

SI unit for electric current (C/s)

3

Drift Velocity

4

Ohm’s law

5

Ohmic

A velocity which refers to the flow of free charges in response to an electric field The current that flows in substances is proportional to the voltage. (I proportional to V) Substances that hold Ohm’s law such a as copper and aluminum

6

Resistivity

Intrinsic property which is independent from shape or size

7

Electric Power

Current times voltage.

8

Series

A sequence of R wired in a circuit

9

Parallel

10

Emf

The R wired in a circuit where the component receives equal voltage from power Electromotive force

Problems Worked:

**Context Summary:

*If you are describing a quantity also indicate if it is a vector or a scalar and indicate unit. *IYOW means “In your Own Words” **What did you learn from solving the cited problems that you can use in working out new problems in the future?...
