P2.3.1 – Static Electricity
![Page 2: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
• Objectives, to understand that:– When certain electrical insulators are
rubbed together they become electrically charged.
– Objects can become charged when electrons are transferred from one to another.
– Similarly charged objects repel one another.

• When certain insulating materials are rubbed against each other they become electrically charged. Negatively charged electrons are rubbed off one material and onto the other.
• The material that gains electrons becomes negatively charged. The material that loses electrons is left with an equal positive charge.
• When two electrically charged objects are brought together they exert a force on each other.

![Page 10: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Resistance
![Page 11: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Ohm’s Law
The current through a resistor at a constant temperature is directly
proportional to the potential difference across the resistor.
This means if you double the current you double the voltage over a component.
It also means that the resistance of the component does not change when you put more current through it.
![Page 12: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Series and Parallel Circuits
![Page 14: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Series Circuit
The components in the circuit are lined up in series, one after each other.
![Page 15: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Parallel Circuit
The components in the circuit are lined up in parallel, in parallel lines to one another.
![Page 16: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Series Circuit
The current (electrons) can only go one way so the current is the same everywhere in the circuit.
But the energy it has given to it by the battery is shared equally amongst all the bulbs.
![Page 17: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Parallel Circuit
The components in the circuit are lined up in parallel, in parallel lines to one another.

A Filament Lamp
The filament lamp is a common type of light bulb. It contains a thin coil of wire called the filament. This heats up when an electric current passes through it, and produces light as a result.
![Page 26: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
A Filament Lamp
The filament lamp does not follow Ohm’s Law. Its resistance increases as the temperature of its filament increases. So the current flowing through a filament lamp is not directly proportional to the voltage across it. This is the graph of current against voltage for a filament lamp.
![Page 27: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The diode
![Page 28: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
If the diode is this way round, no current can flow so the lamp stays unlit.
![Page 29: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The diode has a very high resistance in one direction. This means that current can only flow in the other direction.
This is the graph of current against potential difference for a diode.

Conventional Current
A
By scientific convention the current goes from the positive end of the battery to the negative end.
![Page 31: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Conventional Current
A
•But current in an electronic circuit is the flow of electrons.•Electrons are negatively charged.•So the electrons actually go the other way around the circuit to what ‘conventional current’ says.
![Page 32: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

What is negative current and voltage?
A
•If we turn the battery around we send the current the other way around the circuit, this gives us a negative reading on the ammeter.

Thermistors
Thermistors are used as temperature sensors - for example, in fire alarms. Their resistance decreases as the temperature increases:
•At low temperatures, the resistance of a
thermistor is high and little current can flow through them. •At high temperatures, the resistance of a
thermistor is low and more current can flow through them.
![Page 35: P2.3.1 – Static Electricity](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102519/568134f3550346895d9c3936/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Light Dependent Resistor
LDRs are used to detect light levels, for example, in automatic security lights. Their resistance decreases as the light intensity increases:
•In the dark and at low light levels, the resistance
of an LDR is high and little current can flow through it. •In bright light, the resistance of an LDR is low and
more current can flow through it.

Extension Tasks
• Collect your equipment from my desk.
• Can you set up the multimeter to find the resistance of a component?
• Draw a superb, artistic, clear diagram of what you have just done.
• Measure the resistance of a thermistor and an LDR. – How can you change their resistance? – Does that agree with what you have written in
your notes?

The total resistance (known as RT) of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the resistance of each individual component.
RT = R1 +R2
