Slide 1
Hey, I’m going to be teaching you guys everything you need to know, the basics of electricity, electrons, voltage, the two circuits and resistance. Keep watching to learn more.

Electricity, Electrons and Voltage
Slide 2
Voltage, is potential difference, which is the difference in charge between two points, or a flow pushing the electrons. Electrons are the negative charged subatomic particles which are either freely moving in a circuit or are attached to a shell on the outer part of a nucleus.

Slide 3
The current(flow of charge) and the resistance(material’s tendency to resist the current ) creates the potential difference which then would create the flow of the electrons in a circuit.
Slide 4
Electrons move through wires at an extreme velocity, but each electron in any wire would have an electron behind it, pushing it so it could move from it's position. They move freely in one direction, while still repelling to each other.
Slide 5
It will have the effect of either flowing or stopping, that is because when a switch is closed, the electrons are allowed to move freely and flow through the current, when the switch is open, the flow of energy is stopped from reaching to the load. The flow of electrons stops because an electron has to be pushed by the one behind it and that cannot happen when the first on doesn’t have the charge to move at all.

Series Circuit
Slide 6
A series circuit, is very basic. It's just a circuit with one path, where there is the same current flowing through all of the components. This circuit might be used when you want a circuit where the light bulbs will all go out at once because there is only one path. In this circuit, the voltage in all the light bulbs is different
A burnt out light bulb would cause all of the light bulbs to go out because there is only path of light bulbs and the current passes from one light bulb to the other.

Parallel Circuit
Slide 7
A parallel circuit is a circuit with more than two paths, it is connected in parallel in the voltage is the same for all light bulbs
In a parallel circuit, when the currents in the different light bulbs combine to create the current in the battery, each light bulb voltage will drop while they’re all glowing.
In a parallel circuit, if one light bulb burns out, the rest will stay on because each light bulb basically has its own circuit, in the circuit, so if all of them except for one were to burn out, the last one would stay lit.
Resistance
Slide 8
Resistance what the materials resist to the flow of the current. Thinner wire is harder for electrons to get through because it has greater resistance while thicker wire is easier for electrons to get through because it has less resistance.
▪ Show how the voltage changes by placing a resistor such as a light bulb, buzzer, or motor in different parts of a series circuit and a parallel circuit.
