Electricity Flashcards
What is Static Electricity?
Build up of charges in 1 place, when insulators are rubbed together charges build up.
Only which sub-atomic particles move during static electricity
Electrons
What is Electric Current ?
Flow of negative electrons
What is Current measured in?
Amperes (Amps)
How is Current measured?
Using an Ammeter
What is Charge Flow
Electrons flowing past a point in the circuit!
What is Charge Flow measured in?
Coulombs (C)
Equation for Charge Flow
Charge Flow = Current*Time
Time in seconds!
In Short Form
