What to Focus On
- A cell gives energy to charges in a circuit.
- Electrical power is P = V_AB × I.
- Heat produced in a resistor is H = V_AB × I × t.
- Current through a resistor produces heat.
- Nichrome is used in heaters and cookers.
- Tungsten is used in electric bulbs.
- Home supply uses live, neutral, and earth wires.
- The live and neutral wires have 220 V potential difference.
- A fuse wire melts on high current and breaks the circuit.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Electric power and electrical energy are the same thing.
Joule's law of heating is H = V_AB × I × t only.
Ohm's law is just a general statement about heat or power.
