Static Electricity
When 2 insulators rub together electrons are scraped off one and is dumped on the other, Electrons = Negatively Charged leaving positive charge on one and negative on the other

3 of 13
Current
Rate of flow of charge around circuit, Measured in Amps
4 of 13
Equation for Current
Charge = Current x Time
5 of 13
Resistor in I-V Graph
Directly Proportional to current and voltage
6 of 13
Bulb in I-V Graph
Obeys Ohm's Law fro the middle bit but then current increase = resistance increases so no longer obeys Ohm's Law
7 of 13
Diode in I-V Graph
Obeys Ohm's Law for 1/2
8 of 13
Resistance
Increase with Temperature, Heat energy causes ions in conductor to vibrate more so harder for current to flow through
9 of 13
LDR's
As light increases, Resistance decreases
10 of 13
Thermistor's
As temperature increases, Resistance decreases
