the electrical conductivity of different materials is different
duo to the concentration of free electrons
give reasons some materials conduct electricity while others are considered insulators
good conductor has a high concentration of free electrons like metals while insulators has no free electron like plastic
give reasons the electrical conductivity of different materials is different
duto the concentration of the free electrons
give reasons copper has a high condictivity
bec it is has a high constrition of free electron
diff electric sourse
source of electromotive force to make electric potential defference between the terminal of conductor
diff wire
to conduct electrical charges through the closed circuit
diff key switch
to switch on or off the circuit
diff ammeter
instrument connected in series to measure the elerctric current intensity through the circuit
dif voltmeter
instrument connected in parallel between two points to measure the electric potential differennce between this point
fixed resistance
it is consumes the electric energy in form of thermal energy
Rheostat
to control the total resistance through the whole circuit
