Electricity Flashcards
Anmeter
Used to measure electrical circuit
Ohmeter
Used to measure electrical resistance
Voltmeter
Used to measure potential difference in an electrical circuit
Amps(A)
Unti of measurement for electrical current
Ohm
Unit of measurement for electric resistance
Volts (V)
Unit of measurement for potential difference
LED
Light emitting diode
LDR
Light dependant resistor
V= IxR
Ohm’s law formula
Electrons
And object becomes negatively charged when it gains these
Insulator
A material that doesnt allow the charge through it
Charged atom
When there is a difference between the number of protons and electrons
Posotive charge
Less electrons than protons
Negative charge
More electrons than protons
Static electricity
Generated when an object becomes charged
