6.1 HEATThe movement of electrons in a wire causes collisions and the increase of temperature of the wire. The heat produced by an electric current is called JOULE EFFECT. An example of application of this effect are RADIATORS and TOASTERS.

6.2 LIGHTThere are two ways of producing light using electricity:

1) Light bulbs: Based on the phenomenon of INCANDESCENCE: inside

light bulbs there is a filament that produces light when heated by an electric current.

2) Fluorescent tubes: Inside the tube there is a metallic filament, an inert gas, a small quantity of mercury and a phosphorous layer that covers the inner part of the tube. RS.

6.3 ELECTROMAGNETISMWhen there is current flowing in an electric circuit, it creates a magnetic field. This effect is called ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION and it is used in electric motors and relays.

7.1 RESISTORS

7. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS

The resistor value is color-coded with stripes. a) FIXED RESISTORS

There are two types of resistors: fixed and variable:

7. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTSb) VARIABLE RESISTORS

- POTENTIOMETERS: These are resistors whose value can be adjusted, with a minimum value of 0 up to the maximum specified by the manufacturer.

- RESISTORS THAT DEPEND UPON A PHYSICAL PARAMETER: LDR (LIGHT DEPENDENT RESISTOR): The resistance

decreases as the luminous intensity increases.

THERMISTORS (TEMPERATURE DEPENDANT RESISTOR): resistance decreases or increases as the temperature changes.

7.2 CAPACITORS

7. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS

A capacitor is a component that can store an electrical charge.

A diode is a component that allows current to flow in only one direction. When the anode is connected to higher voltage than the cathode, the diode conducts.

7.3 DIODES

LED are special diodes that shine when conducting.
