Key Topics to Revise

1

Electrostatics and Electric Charge

  • Static electricity is produced when objects are rubbed together, causing transfer of electrons
  • There are two types of charges: positive (like glass rubbed with silk) and negative (like plastic comb rubbed with hair)
  • Like charges repel each other, unlike charges attract each other
2

Electric Potential and Potential Difference

  • Electric potential is work done per unit charge to bring it from infinity to that point
  • Potential difference is work done per unit charge to move it between two points
  • Potential is a scalar quantity measured in volts (V)
3

Electric Current and Ohm's Law

  • Electric current is rate of flow of charge through a cross-section
  • Current flows from positive to negative terminal (conventional current)
  • Electrons actually flow from negative to positive (electron flow)
4

Combination of Resistors

  • Resistors can be combined in series or parallel arrangements
  • In series: same current flows through all resistors
  • In series: total voltage = sum of individual voltages
