curent
rate of flow of charge. I = Q/t, I = V/R
1 of 10
charge
(coulomb)Q = Ixt,
2 of 10
volt/p.d
Potential difference is the amount of energy involved in moving a charge from one place to another, such as between two points in a circuit, a.k.a energy per unit charge V = IxR, V=W/Q
3 of 10
E.M.F
The influence that makes current flow from lower to higher potential(inside the battery) is called EMF.
4 of 10
power
rate at which energy is provided. P(W,watts)= IxV, P= I^2xR, P = V^2IR
5 of 10
Energy
E = Pxt (where p is the power(watts)
6 of 10
series circuit(same,Different)
same = current, different = volt/p.d(different in each component but total the main)
7 of 10
parallel circuit(same,Different)
same = volt/p.d, different = current(different in each component but total the main)
8 of 10
conductance
measure of how well a component in a circuit conduct electricity. G = I/V = 1/R
9 of 10
Difference between e.m.f and p.d
energy transferred TO a charge is E.M.F & Energy transerd From a charge is P>D
