Q

Current and its formula

A

The flow of electrons in a circuit.

I = q/t
Where: I is current (amps)
q is charge (coulombs)
t is time (seconds)

1 amp = 1 coulombs (Cs^-1)

Q

Conventional Current

A

Says that charge flows from the positive terminal to the negative terminal. Modern current is the opposite of the real situation.

V = w/q
V=Voltage W= potential energy in J Q = charge

P = W/T
W= Joules aka energy
T = Time in seconds
P = measured in watts

P = VI
P = power watts
V=voltage
i=current

Q

Series and parallel Circuits (Kirchoffs loop rule)

A

Series: Current stays the same through. Voltage differs.
Parallel: Current differs voltage stays the same. Kirchoff’s loop rule says voltage may vary through each resistor. Vtotal = V1 + V2 +V3…

Ammeter: Measures the current flowing through a resistor.

Rtotal = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3
Then the answer is flipped.

Q

Normal Force Formula

A

F = m x 9.8

Net force is the total of the force being exerted.

Ff - Fi = ma
