AQA GCSE Combined Science: Electricity

This deck covers the core concepts of electricity for AQA Combined Science: Trilogy. It includes circuit symbols, the definitions and relationships between current, potential difference, and resistance (Ohm's Law), and the rules for series and parallel circuits. It also covers the current-voltage characteristics of key components, domestic electricity safety (mains, plugs, fuses), and electrical power. This deck includes Required Practical 2 (Resistance) and Required Practical 3 (I-V Characteristics).

Lesson#1
Welcome to the deck on electricity. We'll start with the fundamental ideas of charge and current, then build up to understanding circuits, resistance, and electrical safety. We'll also cover the key equations for power and energy, and look at the required practicals you need to know for your exams.
Lesson#2
All electricity involves the movement of electric charge. In metal wires, this charge is carried by tiny negatively charged particles called electrons. When these charges flow in a circuit, we call it an electric current. We define current as the rate of flow of electric charge.
Quiz#3
What is electric current?

the rate of flow of charge

Quiz#4
What is the unit of electric current?

amperes

Quiz#5
What is the unit of electric charge?

coulombs

Quiz#6
What is the equation linking charge flow, current, and time?

charge flow equals current times time
