1 Electricity Scheme of Work
2 WHAT IS ELECTRICITY? Electricity is a force of nature and it has been around since the creation of the universe. Electricity, an effect of the electromagnetic force, is the flow of charged particles (electrons) through conductive materials. Electricity, like water, flows from a higher electrical potential to a lower electrical potential. Almost every form of technology is made possible due to electricity and it is an integral part of biological life on Earth. From the beating of our hearts, to the working of our brains and muscles, everything is made possible due to electric currents. Since ancient times, people have come across instances of electricity in nature. Here are some recorded events where electric phenomena were observed: The earliest mention of electricity is found in ancient Egyptian texts from about 2750 BC (roughly 4750 years ago). These texts talk about electric fish that were known as Thunderers of the Nile and defenders of other fish. These electric fish like catfish and torpedo rays have been found in Greek, Roman and Arabic chronicles. Many ancient civilizations have reported the attractive effect that amber has on light objects like feathers when rubbed against cat fur. The magnetic effect of minerals like magnetite was known to the ancient Greeks. Around 600 BC, a Greek philosopher, Thales of Miletus, investigated the static electric effect of amber and wrongly classified it as a magnetic effect arising out of friction. However, later in modern times, electricity and magnetism were proved to be the two manifestations of a single force of electromagnetism. The first indirect evidence of reported similarity between lightning and the electric current delivered by electric fish is found in the name given by Arabs in 15th century to these fish. The name is same as the word for lightning. After that, in 1600 AD, an Englishman named William Gilbert studied both the phenomena of electricity and magnetism and distinguished between the electric effect of amber and magnetic effect of lodestone. It is he who gave the name electricus (Latin) to the phenomenon of attraction showed by amber. Not surprisingly, it was derived from the ancient Greek word for amber, which was elektron. In the 18th century, Benjamin Franklin is supposed to have first proved conclusively that lightning was indeed electricity, through some kite experiments. In the year 1791, Luigi Galvani proved that nerves conduct signals to the muscles in the form of electric currents, thus giving rise to the science of bio-electricity. Version /02/16 Page 1
3 Later in 1800, one of the first electric batteries was created by Allesandro Volta. Later, Hans Christian Ørsted and Andre Ampere proved the unity between electricity and magnetism and Michael Faraday invented the first electric motor. James Clerk Maxwell, through his theory of electromagnetism, conclusively proved the link between electricity and magnetism and proved that light was an electromagnetic wave. The basic devices used to produce electricity are generators; these devices convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. Generators use the relationship between magnetism and electricity. A large magnet is positioned so that when it rotates, an electric current is induced in each section of wire. All of the currents in each wire when summed up equal a current of considerable size. Several different types of electrical generating units are operated with a wide range of fuel sources. Electricity power stations use turbines, engines, or water wheels to convert mechanical or chemical energy to electricity by driving an electric generator. The most common methods of generating electricity are by the use of steam turbines, internal-combustion engines, gas combustion turbines, water turbines and wind turbines. Batteries are the most common source of power used for electrical circuits in schools. They come in a variety of sizes, which can be combined in series battery holders. This allows the voltage produced to be equal to the sum of the batteries used. The timeline shows how devices using electricity have been developed over the past 40 years. bit.ly/electronics-timeline Image credit Permuto Version /02/16 Page 2

His initial interpretation was that magnetic effects radiate from all sides of a wire carrying an electric current, as do light and heat. Three months later he began more intensive investigations and soon thereafter published his findings, showing that an electric current produces a circular magnetic field as it flows through a wire. This discovery was not due to mere chance, since Ørsted had been looking for a relation between electricity and magnetism for several years. The special symmetry of the phenomenon was possibly one of the difficulties that retarded the discovery. It is sometimes claimed that Gian Domenico Romagnosi was the first person to find a relationship between electricity and magnetism, about two decades before Ørsted's 1820 discovery of electromagnetism. However, Romagnosi's experiments did not deal with electric currents, and only showed that an electrostatic charge from a voltaic pile could deflect a magnetic needle. His researches were published in two Italian newspapers and were largely overlooked by the scientific community. Ørsted's findings stirred much research into electrodynamics throughout the scientific community, influencing French physicist André-Marie Ampère's developments of a single mathematical formula to represent the magnetic forces between current-carrying conductors. Ørsted's work also represented a major step toward a unified concept of energy. In 1822, he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Version /02/16 Page 4

Electrode - An electrode is a conductor through which electric current is passed. Electrodes may be wires, plates, or rods. Electron - is a subatomic particle with a negative electric charge. It has no known components or substructure; in other words, it is generally thought to be an elementary particle. It has the symbol e- Van der Graaff - an electrostatic generator which uses a moving belt to accumulate very high voltages on a hollow metal sphere. Voltage - Voltage is electric potential energy per unit charge, measured in joules per coulomb - which is the same as volts. Or more simply how much work can be done by a flowing quantity of current.
