Current Electricity-Current, Voltage and Resistance-What are They? KS3
This action-packed lesson introduces current as a flow of electrons and explains the relationship between current, voltage and resistance using the analogy of a diver using up energy obtained from food and giving off heat as they swim through pipes filled either with water (low resistance) or water and rocks (high resistance). The food as a source of energy is then replaced by the battery, the diver by the electron and the rocks by metal ions. Both scenarios are animated in the PowerPoint. This explanation is then extended to compare the resistance of long, short, thick and thin wires. The practical explores the conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit.
Objective
To know that current is a flow of electrons through a conductor when they are given energy or pushed by a voltage from the battery.
To know and explain how metal ions cause resistance.
To know and explain the comparative resistance of wires according to length and thickness.
To explain why electrons lose more heat passing through a high resistance conductor.
To know the conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit.
