Electric Field

Overview

Students should be Able to: Draw electric lines of force around: Isolate positive charge; Isolate negative charge Two like charges placed near each other two unlike charges placed near each other. Generate a continuous flow of charge Explain electric current. Set up a simple electric circuit. Distinguish between conductors and insulators Define resistance as opposition to flow of charges (electrons). Calculate the electrical work done in a given circuit.

What you'll learn
  • Electric lines of force
  • Potential difference and electric current
  • Production of electric current.
  • Electric circuit.
  • Electric conduction through materials.
