New Topic: Electric Current
Today's class started off with a video on "Electric Current."
KEY CONCEPTS IN THE VIDEO:
- VOLTAGE = ENERGY (JOULES) / CHARGE (COULOMBS)
- CURRENT proportional to VOLTAGE DIFFERENCE
- CURRENT (AMPHERES) = VOLTAGE DIFFERENCE / RESISTANCE
- I = V / R
- DIRECT CURRENT: A current travelling in ONE direction.
- ALTERNATING CURRENT: A current alternating back and forth.
** Basically the video was an overview on series and parallel circuits.
For the rest of class we were assigned the following:
Read PGS. 469 - 475
Do Practice Problems:
PG. 471 - 472
#1 - #4
PG. 474 - 475
#5 - #8
The next scribe is: GEAR321 (AKA. Eddie)
The purpose of this blog is to help grade 12 physics students with problems and concerns in their course. Students should also reflect on the day's lesson - question, think, get curious!
