1
Q
How do you calculate the charge flow?
A
Q = I x t
2
Q
What happens when charge flows through a resistor?
A
The energy transferred to the resistor makes it hot
3
Q
What is the equation for the energy transferred to a component?
A
E = V x Q
4
Q
What happens when charge flows around a circuit for a given time?
A
Energy supplied by battery is equal to the energy transferred to all components in the circuit
