a. What is one unit of measurement in electricity?
b. Why is copper wire used in electrical wiring?]]> 2017-06-07 02:40:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kingdomdiez/9a357jcs2plk/wish/175488688 Professor Vanessa Thompson kingdomdiez https://padlet.com/kingdomdiez/9a357jcs2plk/wish/175489249 Tuesday, thursday 12-2
In this class, students learn about the basics of electricity. First, they learn how electricity is created. This leads to an in-depth study of electrons. Then students learn about electrical charge, current and resistance.They also find out how a material conducts current. Finally, students learn how to measure electricity. They study units of measurement such as amperes, volts, ohms, and watts. At the end of the class, students do a final project. Each student builds his/ herown electrical circuit.]]> 2017-06-07 02:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kingdomdiez/9a357jcs2plk/wish/175489249 Reading kingdomdiez https://padlet.com/kingdomdiez/9a357jcs2plk/wish/175490416 2.  Read the course desciption.
