What is Electricity?
A form of energy Used to make electrical
appliances work

Electric Current
It is the rate of flow of electrical charge.
The path that the current flows through is known as a circuit.

Potential Difference:
The potential difference across any two points is the amount of energy needed to move one unit charge of electricity from one point to the other.

Electrical energy can be transformed into other forms of energy to produce many effects
Effects of an Electric Current

Heating Effect of a Current
Wire heats up as a current passes through it
Electrical energy is converted into heat energy
Heat produced depends on the resistance of the wire
Greater resistance, greater heat

10
Heating Effect of a Current
Heating appliances have coils of wires made of high resistance materials such as nichrome
Heating elements heat up when current passes through them
Heat produced is then used for ironing, toasting, cooking and drying

Magnetic Effect of a Current
An iron rod placed inside a coil of wire has increased magnetic field when the current is switched on
When the current is switched off, the iron loses its magnetism
The set-up is known as an electromagnet

Magnetic Effect of a Current
• Used in many applications• Gives a magnetic field that can be switched on
and off when desired

Liquids such as salt water, vinegar and copper sulphate solution allow electricity to pass through them
Liquids are known as electrolytes
Chemical Effect of a Current

Chemical Effect of a Current
Electrolysis: Chemical decomposition of an electrolyte by an electrical current
Electrodes: Two wires or plates through which current enters and leaves the electrolyte

Application of the Chemical Effect of Current
Electrolysis is used in electroplating Flow of current causes a thin layer of metal
to be deposited on the object to be electroplated
Electrolysis is also used in industries to extract metals such as aluminium and magnesium from their compounds

Lighting Effect of a Current
Heating effect of a current can also lead to the lighting effect
In a light bulb, the heat generated is so great that the coiled filament begins to glow and give out light
