Electricity
Electricity
Materials can become electrically charged.
Electric charge is a property of matter.
Electric charge
electric field
Static charges are caused by the movement of electrons.
Charging by Contact
electrons
charge through contact
How materials Affect Static Charging
materials interact
materials give up electrons to anything below it on the list and accept electrons from anything above it
Charge Polarization
If the electrons cannot easily move away from their atoms, the negative charges within the atoms may shift to the side away from the balloon.
Charging by Induction
induction
static charge
Technology uses static electricity.
Electric current is a flow of charge.
Electric charge can flow continuously
Current, Voltage, and Resistance
Ohm's Law
Measuring Electricity
Electric cells supply electric current.
Electrochemical Cells
Solar Cells
Charges can move from one place to another.
Materials affect charge movement
Grounding
Grounding
Superconductors
conduct even better than good conductors
Superconductors have many uses
Resistance
ohms
resistance
Conductors and Insulators
conductor
insulator
Static charges have potential energy.
Lightning
Charge Separation
Charge Buildup
Static Discharge
high-energy static charge
comes from the electric potential of millions of volts
Charge Movement
a charge moves
potential energy
a moving charge transfers energy when you get a shock form static electricity
Electric Potential
Electric potential
volt
Electric Potential Energy
Kinetic energy stores as potential energy
potential energy can be converted back to kinetic energy
