Basic current charge

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Moving charge is called   current  
🗑
Charge is measured in   Coulombs  
🗑
Conventional current flows   From positive to negative round a circuit  
🗑
Charge can be moved round a circuit using   a cell  
🗑
More than one cell is called   battery  
🗑
The two types of charge are   positive and negative  
🗑
The charge carried by electrons is   negative  
🗑
Protons and some ions are charged   positively  
🗑
In a metal wire charge is carried by   free electrons  
🗑
The electrons drift in a wire when they experience   the electrical force from the cell  
🗑
The direction electrons move in a wire   opposite to conventional current  
🗑
A substance containing both free positive and negative charges is called an   electrolyte  
🗑
The coulomb is defined as   that charge passing a point when 1 Amp flows for 1 second  
🗑
The symbol for the quantity of current is   I  
🗑
The unit for current is   Ampere (A)  
🗑
The symbol for the quantity of Charge is   Q  
🗑
The unit for charge is   Coulomb (C)  
🗑
The equation linking charge and current   ΔQ=IxΔt  
🗑
If 200 C pass in 20 seconds the current is   10A  
🗑
The charge on a single electron is   1.6 x10-19C  
🗑
How many electrons are in 1C   6.25x1018  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
