Chapter 20 Summary Circuits and Circuit Elements Summary If you want to light a bulb, you require a voltage source and a complete circuit. An electric circuit is a set components connected so that they provide one or more paths for the movement of charges. Any element or group of elements in the circuit that dissipates energy is called the load. In a series circuit, there is only one current. The current through each bulb in the diagram below would be the same. In a parallel circuit, there are multiple pathways for the charges to flow. Images Figure 20-1a Figure 20-1b Figure 20-1c Summary The total voltage, current and resistance in a circuit depend on the configuration of the components in the circuit. Important Formulas

Name____________________ Date______ Section___________________ Group_____ Physics Laboratory Exercise Electrostatics Lab *Adapted from Flynn Scientific ??? Introduction: Objects obtain positive and/or negative charges through the transfer of electrons. Friction is not a requirement of charge transfer. Rather, it is the relative attraction for electrons of the different materials that determines the direction of electron transfer. In this lab activity, you will explore positive and negative charges, electrostatic attraction and repulsion and conduction and induction using basic materials. Objective: To charge a number of materials and explore electrostatic attraction and repulsion.

Name ____________________ Date ______ Mr. Carcich CP Physics Current Electricity & Circuit Review Be sure you understand completely the following concepts. You need to know: Electric Current Define current. What are the units for electrical current? What is conventional current? What is drift velocity? Current- the rate of flow of electrical charges Conventional current- the flow that positive charges would flow (if they did flow), positive to negative Actual current- direction that electrons would flow, negative to positive Drift velocity- average velocity that a particle, such as an electron, attains due to an electric field What is necessary for a current to begin to flow? What must you connect to a circuit?

Redox and Electrochemistry Water solutions of certain substances conduct an electric current ?These substances are lectrolytes It is a sustance that dissolves in water to form a solution that will conduct an electric current If it does not coduct at all?Nonelectrolytes The reason that substances vary in their ability to conduct is related to number of ions in solution Ionic lattice substances?Sodium chloride?Dissociated by water molecules so that the individual positive and negative ions are dispresed throughout the solution Covalent bond?Degree of polarity determines the extent to which it will be ionized Water molecules help waken and finally break the polar covalent bonds Ionization? When ions are formed Dissociation?Ionic lattice comes apart

Physics-p3 1.1 X-Rays Part of the electromagnetic spectrum; they have a high frequency and short wavelength. X-rays are used to form images of bone on photographic film to check for fractures and dental fractures. This is done because they are transmitted by healthy tissue and absorbed by bone. X-rays affect photographic film in the same way as light. Charge-coupled devices (CCDs) are used to form electronic images of the body. X-rays are used to make images and CT scans (cross sections through the body). They are also used to destroy tumors at or near the body surface. Precautions must be taken when using X-rays as they cause ionization and can damage living tissue. Workers should wear film badges (to monitor exposure) and use lead screens to shield them when possible.
