ELECTRICAL CONCEPTS
ELECTRICITY
DEFINITION
An invisible force that can produce heat, light, motion
and many other physical effects that can be seen in battery,
static charge, lighting, electronics: radio, stereo, television,
computer, telephone and many other applications.
All matters is composed of “atoms” which is made up of
a nucleus and one or more electrons bounded to it. The
nucleus is made of one or more protons and typically a similar
number of neutrons.
ELECTRICITY
BOHR’S ATOMIC THEORY
Based on Bohr’s Atomic Theory:
“An atom is a miniaturized solar system.”
Electrons – negatively charge particle
Protons – positively charge particle
Neutrons – have no electric charge
The charge of one electron is equal to: 1.6×10-19 C
TYPES OF ELECTRICITY
1. STATIC ELECTRICITY
It is the electricity produced when the electrical charges
are at rest. It is produced by rubbing two different materials
resulting to produced friction hence it is called frictional
electricity.
TYPES OF ELECTRICITY
2. DYNAMIC ELECTRICITY
It is the electricity produced when the electric charges
are moving or transferring from one atom to another in a
material. It refers to the so-called electric current.
BASIC ELECTRICAL QUANTITIES

❑ Static electricity at rest, without any motion.
❑ Basic unit of charge is Coulomb (C).
𝑄 = 𝐶𝑉 → 1 Coulomb = 1 Farad-Volt

4. RESISTANCE
❑ A property of electric circuit, material, and substance that
tend to limit the amount of current that can be produced by
the applied voltage and convert electrical energy to heat
energy.
❑ Base unit of resistance is Ohms (Ω).

proportional to its length (R ∝ L) and inversely

7. WORK OR ENERGY
❑ The accomplishment of motion against the action of a force
which tends to oppose the motion.
❑ It is performed whenever energy is converted from one
form to another.
❑ Base SI unit of work and energy is Joule (J).
𝐸 = 𝑃 × 𝑡 = 𝑄𝑉 → 1 Joule = 1 Watt-second
