the sum of the currents into a junction is equal to the current out of a junction.

What is Kirchoff's second law?
The sum of the EMF is equalto the sum of the potential differences in a closed loop.
2 of 10
Ohm's law =
V=I(R+r) or V=IR
3 of 10
What is EMF?
Electromotive force, energy converted from a form into electrical energy by a component per charge.
4 of 10
What is PD?
Potential difference- Energy converted from electrical energy to another form by a component per unit charge.
5 of 10
Define voltage
Voltage is the energy per unit charge: 1V=1J per C or work=voltsxcharge (w=VC)
6 of 10
Define resistance
How much energy is lost per amp: 1ohm=1C per sec (ohm=Q/t or Q=It)
7 of 10
Define resistivity
The resistance of 1m^3 of material (an ohmic meter) R=el/A or e=RA/l
8 of 10
Define drift velocity
The average translational (sideways) speed of charges in a conductor: I=nAve- (current+number of electronsxcross sectional areaxvelocityxcharge of an electron)
9 of 10
Define charge
A property of matter eg; an electron has a negative charge (e-) of 1.6x10^-19

The sum of the EMF is equalto the sum of the potential differences in a closed loop.
Sorry for my quick and terrible typing skills... number 7 is wrong- the equation should be 1ohm=1J per A or R=J/A, it can also relate to ohm's law or V-IR
