GENERAL PHYSICS 12HA-12 1st 1SEMESTER, Q2 – Ma’am Lalaine Prado – ‘24-’25 W1: ELECTRICITY A Electricity Presence and flow of electric charges Control the amount of electricity A1 Electric Charge (q) Semiconductor - between the conductor and insulator Superconductors The electrical nature of matter which is ○ Mostly metals - metalloids inherent in its atomic structure (carried by elementary particles) Two general types: ○ Positive ○ Negative Coulomb - SI unit of charge Conductor Parameters in an Electric Circuit Any material that allows electric current to pass through it Voltage (V)- the difference in potential energy between two points in the electric circuit. Current (C)- the amount of flow of electric changes Resistance (R) - a material’s tendency to resist the flow of electric changes. Voltage Across a Battery Insulator The potential difference (electric potential), or voltage, across the two ends, or terminals, of a battery ranges Any material that does not allow from about 1.5V for a small battery to electric current to pass through it about 12 V for a car battery ○ Like the protective coating on Most batteries are electrochemical wires cells–or groups of connected cells–that convert chemical energy into electrical energy. PAGE 1 Mirakelly Monique R. Ng – 12HA-12 – UST - SHS GENERAL PHYSICS 12HA-12 1st 1SEMESTER, Q2 – Ma’am Lalaine Prado – ‘24-’25 Electromotive force (EMF) is defined as the electric potential produced by either electrochemical cell or by changing the magnetic field. A generator or a battery is used for the conversion of energy from form to another. Difference between EMF and Voltage EMF - the electromotive force is the type of Electric Potential And Potential Difference energy which forces a unit positive charge to move from the positive to the negative terminal Batteries “lift”charges to a higher of the source. It separates the two charges from potential each other. There is a Potential Difference because VOLTAGE - the difference in electric potential each coulomb of charge has a different between two points. The voltage between two potential energy at either end of the points is equal to the work done per unit of battery. charge against a static electric field to move a test charge between two points PAGE Mirakelly Monique R. Ng – 12HA-12 – UST - SHS 2 GENERAL PHYSICS 12HA-12 1st 1SEMESTER, Q2 – Ma’am Lalaine Prado – ‘24-’25 Electric Current (I) More precisely, the electric current in a wire is defined as the net amount of an electric current is a flow of charged charge that passes through the wire’s particles or current full cross section or any amount per A current in a metal is due to the unit time. movement of electrons Thus, the current I is defined as: Current is measured using an ammeter. An ammeter measures the rate flow of charge. The unit of current is the Ampere (A). (1 amp. Of current = 1 coulomb of charge per second) Electric current is only present if there is electric potential between two points If the charges move around the circuit in the same direction at all times, the current is said to be direct current (DC). ○ E.g. batteries If the charges move first one way and then the opposite way, the current is said to be alternating current (AC) - changes its direction each half cycle. ○ E.g. household current PAGE Mirakelly Monique R. Ng – 12HA-12 – UST - SHS 3 GENERAL PHYSICS 12HA-12 1st 1SEMESTER, Q2 – Ma’am Lalaine Prado – ‘24-’25 Resistivity (ρ) Resistivity is the property of the conductor due to which it offers resistance to the flow of current through it The better the conductor, the less its resistance. SI unit for resistivity is Ohm-meter (Ω-meter) Resistance (R) The resistance of a conductor is a measure of the opposition it offers to the flow of electric current; SI unit of resistance is Ohm(Ω) A wire or an electrical device that offers resistance to electrical flow is called a resistor. The resistance of a component causes electrical energy to be converted into heat Resistance of a component causes electrical energy to be converted into heat Resistance depend on the conductor’s ○ Length ○ Cross-sectional area ○ Type of material (e.g metals) ○ temperature Resistors A resistor is an electrical component that limits on regulates the flow of electrical current in an electronic circuit PAGE Mirakelly Monique R.

Current (I) is directly proportional to voltage (V) and inversely proportional to resistance ® This relationship as discovered by George Ohm ↑V ↓I ↓V ↑I ↑R ↓I PAGE Mirakelly Monique R. Ng – 12HA-12 – UST - SHS 5 GENERAL PHYSICS 12HA-12 1st 1SEMESTER, Q2 – Ma’am Lalaine Prado – ‘24-’25 ↓R ↑I ↑R ↑V ↓R ↓V In summary Voltage, also called electromotive force, is a quantitative expression of the potential difference in charge between two points in an electrical field. Any flow of charge such as this is callen an electric current. Resistance is the hindrance to the flow of charge. (Ohm) PAGE Mirakelly Monique R.

It is mostly used in low voltage applications The resistor is the main component of the DC circuit. W2: Electric Circuits B Electric Circuits Any path along which current and electron can flow Unbroken path of material that carries electricity It consists of an energy source and an energy consuming device which are connected by conducting wires through which electric charges move Within a battery, a chemical reaction occurs that transfers electrons and charges from one terminal to another terminal. The maximum potential difference across the terminals is provided and maintained by the electromotive force (EMF). PAGE Mirakelly Monique R.

Ng – 12HA-12 – UST - SHS 16 GENERAL PHYSICS 12HA-12 1st 1SEMESTER, Q2 – Ma’am Lalaine Prado – ‘24-’25 Work-Energy Theorem Work = Energy The theorem states that the net change in KE of a particle (system) is a equivalent to the sum of work done by all types of external forces The kinetic energy of an object increases as a result of the amount of work. Work done on an object transfers energy to the object. PAGE Mirakelly Monique R. Ng – 12HA-12 – UST - SHS 17 GENERAL PHYSICS 12HA-12 1st 1SEMESTER, Q2 – Ma’am Lalaine Prado – ‘24-’25 The longer the time, the lesser the power F POWER extended ↑t↓p The rate at which work is done ↓ t↑ p The rate at which energy is expended Power is the amount of work done divided by the time it takes to do it. Power is the energy expended/transformed divided by the time it takes to do it. Power is the energy expended/transformed divided by the time it takes to expend it. SI uniform power = Watt (W) 1 horsepower = 550 ft-lb of work/second = 746 watts or 0.746 kilowatt Power is the rate at which energy is transferred or the rate at which work is done. Work and Power Work has nothing to do with the amount of time the force acts to cause the displacement ○ E.g A person going up and down the stairs For power, time is inversely proportional. Therefore, the shorter the time the work is done, the higher the power extended. PAGE Mirakelly Monique R.
