What is electrical energy?
How quickly electrical energy moves in a circuit is called ___________________________.
What is the unit of measurement for electric current?
If your cell phone charger had too high of a current, you could add a resistor so that it doesn’t burn out your battery. How does a resistor work?
Page 3, Check-In Question #1- What factors affect the amount of electric current moving within a circuit?
Look at the table on Page 4. Compare object pair #4 and #6 that have the same resistance, but different voltages. If the resistance is the same, does a higher voltage result in a higher or a lower current?
Look at the table on Page 4. Compare object pair #1 and #5 that have different resistances, but the same voltage. If the voltage is the same, does a higher resistance result in a higher or a lower current?

1. Electrical energy is the energy generated by the movement of charged particles, typically electrons, through a conductor.
2. How quickly electrical energy moves in a circuit is called the **electric current**.
3. The unit of measurement for electric current is the **ampere (A)**.
4. A resistor works by limiting the flow of electric current in a circuit, converting some electrical energy into heat, which prevents excess current from damaging the components.
5. Factors that affect the amount of electric current moving within a circuit include voltage, resistance, and temperature.
6. If the resistance is the same, a higher voltage results in a **higher current**.
7. If the voltage is the same, a higher resistance results in a **lower current**.
