Easter Science Activity: http://www.ehow.com/list_5984252_easter-science-activities-kindergarten.html
Hi Everyone,I look forward to a great week talking about heat and temperature, heat transfer and the activities that model these ideas. We will have the quiz over Ch 5-7 so be sure to complete your reading guide. The quiz will be open on Tuesday and will close on Thursday. We will also do the take-home lab on circuits in class instead, since the quiz is happening his week.
QUESTION 8: What is the difference between electric current and voltage? Be specific and give examples.
Hope you have a great week and an enjoyable Easter Break.

ReplyDeleteElectric current is a flow of charged particles. Voltage is the differences in potential or electric state related to the electrical forces that push charges through a conductor. If you connect a battery to a light bulb the battery would be the source of voltage that causes the electric current to move through the conductor to the light bulb. The voltage doesn’t move, it just causes the electric charge to move.

What is the difference between electric current and voltage?
Electric Current: a flow of charged particles
Voltage: differences in potential or electric state related to the electrical forces that push charges through a conductor
When you connect a battery to a fan, the battery acts as the source of voltage, causing the electric current to move through the conductor to the fan.

ReplyDeleteVoltage is a measure of a measure of the energy carried by the charge. The electric current is the rate of the flow of the charge. Anytime a battery is used to power something, like a smoke detector uses a 9-volt battery to operate, the battery acts as the source of voltage and the electric current moves through the conductor to the smoke detector.
Electric Current is the rate of flow of a charge.
ReplyDeleteVoltage is the measure of the energy that is carried by the charge.
An example would be when you make a circuit with a battery connected to a light by wires. The battery has a voltage that is carried by the charge along with current.
The electric current is the rate of flow of a charge. Voltage is the measure of the difference in electric potential between two points in space, a material, or an electric circuit, expressed in volts. Batteries have a voltage that sends out and electric current when working.
ReplyDeleteElectric current is is the rate of flow of a charge.
ReplyDeleteVoltage is equal to energy per unit. An example would be a lamp plugged into a wall. The light bulb send out a certain amount of volts and electric current.
What is the difference between electric current and voltage? Be specific and give examples.
ReplyDeleteElectric current is the flow of electric charge that transports energy form one place to another. Voltage is the measure of the energy carried by the charge. An example of this would My boyfriend getting shocked by a flow of electric charge the voltage was 110 volts.
Electric current is the rate of flow of a charge, and voltage is differences in potential or electric state related to the electrical forces that push charges through a conductor
ReplyDeleteBatteries are a good example to show voltage and electric current.
Voltage is the potential or electric state related to the electric forces that push charges through a conductor, electric current is the rate of flow of a charge.
ReplyDeleteA battery is an example of voltage and electric current.
Voltage is the electrical potential difference between two points
ReplyDeleteCurrent is the flow of electric charge across a certain element
If my daughter were to stick keys in the socket, which i hope never happens. The electric current will flow to the socket and through her body. The voltage is the deciding factor of how dangerous it may be. The amount of voltage is what kills people.
Electric current is the flow of electric charge that transports energy from one place to another.Voltage is the measure of the energy that is being carried by the charge. An example of this would be a person sticking something into an outlet and being shocked.
ReplyDeleteThe flow of electrical charge that transport energy from one place to another is and electric current. It is measured in amperes. Voltage is the measure of energy that is being carried by a charge. I think of a 9 volt battery and putting it on your tongue and getting a little jolt from it.
ReplyDeleteElectric current is a flow of charged particles. Voltage is the differences in electric state related to the electrical forces that push through a conductor.
ReplyDeleteA battery is an example of both voltage and electric current.
Electric Current is the flow of charged particles from one place to another. Voltage is the amount of energy that is carried by a charge.
ReplyDeleteElectric current is the flow of charged particle from one area to another. Voltage is the amount of energy that is carried by a charge. An electric fence is an example of electric current and voltage.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the difference between electric current and voltage?
ReplyDeleteAn electric current is a flow of charged particles and a voltage is thedifferences in potential or electric state related to the electrical forces that push charges through a conductor. An example of how they work is connect a battery to a an object and it acts as the source of voltage, causing the electric current to move through the conductor to the object.
Electric current is a flow of electricity through a conductor.
ReplyDeleteVoltage is the rate at which energy is drawn from a source that produces a flow of electricity in a circuit and it is expressed in volts.
What is the difference between electric current and voltage?
ReplyDeleteElectric current is a flow of charged particles from one area to another, while voltage is the amount of energy that is carried through the conductor.
