•
Electricity is a phenomenon of SOME CHARGED SUBATOMIC PARTICLES called electrons
•
WHEN THEY START MOVING FROM ATOM TO ATOM
•
An atom is the smallest particle OF WHICH ALL MATTER IS COMPOSED.
•
All atoms consist of a nucleus CONTAINING PROTONS AND NEUTRONS,
•
AROUND WHICH ELECTRONS ORBIT;
•
electrons orbiting farther from the nucleus ARE MORE EASILY DRAWN AWAY
•
therefore are more likely to move and CREATE AN ELECTRIC CURRENT
•
thus, AN ELECTRON IS NEGATIVELY CHARGED
•
whereas a proton is positively charged and NEUTRONS HAVE NO ELECTRICAL CHARGE
•
an atom is electrically neutral AS THERE ARE AS MANY PROTONS AS ELECTRONS IN
ONE ATOM.
•
However atoms of different substances DIFFER FROM EACH OTHER DEPENDING ON THE
NUMBER OF ELECTRONS AND PROTONS that they contain.
•
IN SPITE OF THE FACT THAT THE NUCLEUS IS THE SMALLEST PART OF AN ATOM,
most of the atom’s weight is concentrated in its nucleus
•
An electron, ON THE OTHER HAND, weighs only about 1/1800 (one eighteen hundredth) OF
THE WEIGHT OF A PROTON OR NEUTRON
•
Yet to produce the movement of electrons A DIFFERENCE IN POTENTIAL BETWEEN TWO
POINTS must be created.
•
Electric sources SUCH AS BATTERIES, CELLS, GENERATORS, etc
•
change chemical, mechanical or other types of energy INTO ELECTRICAL ENERGY
CONNECTORS (p 68)
1. Electrons are very light WHEREAS/WHILE protons and neutrons have
most of the mass of the atom.
2. INSTEAD OF using the common metric units, the amstrong is
preferred to measure atoms.
3. Electrons orbiting farther from the nucleus move to other atoms DUE
TO THE FACT THAT/SINCE/AS they are more easily drawn away.
4. Unlike charges attract each other; THUS/THEREFORE/HENCE/AS A
CONSEQUENCE, a positively charged atom will attract electrons from
other atoms.
5. Electricity occurs DUE TO/ BECAUSE OF/OWING TO the movement of
electrons.
6. DESPITE / IN SPITE OF the nucleus being the smallest part of an
atom, it(the nucleus) contains most of its mass.
7. Electrons, protons and neutrons are called subatomic particles
SINCE/DUE TO THE FACT THAT/AS they are smaller than an atom.
8. ALTHOUGH/ DESPITE THE FACT THAT the structure of atoms is
similar for all elements, each element has a different number of
electrons protons and neutrons.
CONNECTORS (p 68)
9. UNLIKE/ AS OPPOSED TO/ CONTRARILY TO coal or solar energy,
electricity is a secondary source of energy.
10. Research is underway to obtain superconducting properties at room
temperature, WHICH is quite interesting for the field of
telecommunications.
11. We can’t classify electricity AS a renewable or nonrenewable form of
energy.
12. The failure has certainly appeared DUE TO/ OWING TO/BECAUSE OF
impurities in the fuel.
13. With AC electricity, voltage can be readily changed, (THUS) making it
more suitable for long-distance transmission than DC electricity
14. ALTHOUGH/ DESPITE THE FACT THAT gold is the best conductor, it
is very expensive. THUS/ THEREFORE/HENCE/AS A CONSEQUENCE
copper is used INSTEAD
15. An electron is two thousand times smaller in mass than a proton but
its electrical charge is equal to THAT of a proton

1-A piece of metal with two ends: North and South
2- A permanent magnet
3- Disadvantages
4- An electromagnet is the same as a permanent magnet
5- We get the N & S poles by passing a current around a wire wrapped around a coil (e.g.
cardboard)
6- I get a North at one end and a South at the other as the current travels through it
7- I get no magnet
8- Because the electricity creates the magnetism
9 a)There is no metal in it (except the metal in the wire carrying the current)
9b)If I put in the center some iron it will make it much stronger(10-20 times stronger)
9c) A soft iron core (soft= easy to magnetize) =the coil will magnetize and demagnetize easily
10-I can switch it on and off = to pick up a piece of metal and then drop it
PREPOSITIONS (p71-72)
1. A piece of iron becomes magnetized when it is brought NEAR a
magnet
2. All substances that are attracted BY a magnet are capable OF
becoming magnetized
3. The poles are located AT the ends of the bar magnet.
4. A Simple Generator consists OF a U-shaped magnet and a
single loop of wire
5. Ordinary matter takes its form AS a result OF intermolecular
forces BETWEEN individual molecules IN matter
6. The protons are basically trapped INSIDE the nucleus …
Therefore, it is moving electrons that are primarily responsible
FOR electricity.
7. Electromagnetism can be used to levitate a train ABOVE the
track
8. WITHOUT electricity our lives would have come to a halt.
PREPOSITIONS (p71-72)
9. The lines of force emanate FROM the north pole of a magnet, pass
THROUGH surrounding space and enter the south pole. The lines of
force then travel INSIDE the magnet from the south pole TO the north
pole
10. Originally electricity and magnetism were thought of AS two separate
forces.
11. An electri current flowing THROUGH a wire creates a circular magnetic
field AROUND the wire, its direction depending ON that OF the current.
12. Some elecricity generation technologies result IN the creation of solid
waste
13. A generator is a device that converts mechanical energy INTO electrical
energy. The process is based ON the relationship BETWEEN
magnetism and electricity
14. Whereas a synchronous motor's rotor turns AT the same rate AS the
stator field, an induction motor's rotor rotates AT a slower speed than
the stator field.
PREPOSITIONS (p 72)
Let´s have a look AT one of Faraday´s experiments, IN which he
used a copper wheel and a horseshoe magnet.
The wheel was located BETWEEN the poles OF the magnet.
Electrical contacts were applied TO the wheel, both AT the centre
and AT the edge of it.
These parts were connected TO an ammeter BY means of wires IN
order to detect the electrical current.
Whenever the wheel rotated BETWEEN the ends of the magnet, an
electrical current was shown ON / IN the ammeter´s display.
When the wheel was made to turn IN the opposite direction, the
needle OF the ammeter was deflected IN the opposite direction,
too.
Therefore, according TO this experiment, the direction of the
current depended ON the turning of the wheel placed close TO
a magnetic field.
TRANSLATION (p73)
• Some SCIENTISTS (WHO WERE) WORKING ON
ELECTROMAGNETISM
• discovered that the magnetic field of an electric current could BE
STRENGTHENED BY SENDING A CURRENT THROUGH A COIL
• A GREATER/HIGHER NUMBER OF TURNS IN THE COIL
strengthens the magnetic field AS IT ALSO DOES a stronger electric
current.
• Placing the coil AROUND a piece of iron also increases the
magnetism SINCE/AS THE IRON BECOMES MAGNETIZED
• Not long after the DISCOVERY that A MAGNETIC FIELD COULD
BE CREATED BY AN ELECTRIC CURRENT ), M. Faraday
discovered that the reverse was also true.
• When a closed loop of wire is moved through a magnetic field AN
EMF (ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE) IS CREATED
• THIS MAKES/CAUSES A CURRENT OF ELECTRONS Ø/TO FLOW
THROUGH THE WIRE and is the basis for GENERATING electricity
• To generate e.m.f. the wire must cut the LINES OF FORCE in the
magnetic field.
• Also THE FASTER THE WIRE IS MADE TO TURN, THE GREATER
the production of e.m.f.
TRANSLATION (p73)
• Generators contain a stationary magnet, the stator, with a rotor
placed BETWEEN ITS North & South poles
• AS THE ROTOR TURNS the wires in it CUT THE LINES OF
FORCE in the magnetic field of the stator.
• With each half turn the flow of current is reversed producing
alternating current (a.c.). The rotor IS DRIVEN BY A TURBINE, a
machine with huge blades moved by water or steam produced
BY BURNING COAL OR OIL
• Transformers ARE ALSO BASED ON ELECTROMAGNETISM,
• They consist OF two COILS of wire WOUND around pieces of
iron.
• Current is supplied to a transformer through the primary coil and
taken from the secondary. When an ALTERNATING CURRENT
FLOWS THROUGH THE PRIMARY the constant reversal of
electron flow produces a changing magnetic field that creates a
current in the secondary coil.
• When the primary coil has MORE TURNS THAN THE
SECONDARY voltage is decreased;
• when the secondary coil has more turns than the primary, the
secondary voltage INCREASES/GOES UP/RISES.

INSTRUCTIONS (p 76)
A F4: We start by winding the armature, the part of the motor that
moves. To make the armature nice and round, we wind it on a
cylindrical coil form, such as a small battery. Don't try to be neat, a
little randomness will help the bundle keep its shape better.
B F5: Now carefully pull the coil off of the form by holding the wire so
that it doesn't spring out of shape. To make the coil hold its shape
permanently, wrap each free end of the wire around the coil a
couple of times, making sure that the new binding turns are exactly
opposite each other, so as to allow the coil to turn easily on the
axis formed by the two free ends of wire, like a wheel.
C F2: Hold the coil at the edge of a table in order to keep it straight (not
flat on the table), with one of the free wire ends lying flat on the
table. With a sharp knife, remove the top half of the insulation from
the free wire end. Be careful to leave the bottom half of the wire with
the insulation intact. The top half of the wire will be shiny bare
copper, and the bottom half will be the color of the insulation. Do the
same thing to the other free wire end, making sure that the shiny
bare copper side is facing up on both wire ends
INSTRUCTIONS (p 76)
D F·3: The next step is to make the axle supports. In order to make
the supports, take a stiff piece of bare wire (copper or brass will
work, as will a straightened paper clip) and bend it around a small
nail to make a loop in the middle. Do the same to another wire, so
you have two supports.
E F1: Attach the support wires securely to the battery holder by winding
the free ends several times through the small holes in the plastic at
each end. Bend the support wires so the rings are just far enough
apart for the armature to spin freely. Bend them apart a little and
insert the armature into both rings, then bend them back so that they
are close to the coil, but not touching it. Insert the battery into the
holder. Place the magnet on top of the battery holder just
underneath the coil.
• Note that there is a strip of paper stuck in between the battery and
the electrical contact in the holder. This is the on/off switch. Remove
the paper to allow electricity to flow into the motor, and replace the
paper in order to stop the motor.

ORAL PRACTICE: DRY CELL
This dry cell is the most common type of cell. It consists of
the positive pole, which is a carbon rod surrounded by a
mixture of carbon powder and manganese dioxide. This
mixture is the depolarizer, which prevents hydrogen
bubbles from forming on the anode, avoiding the reduction
of the activity. At the top of the carbon rod is a brass cap,
which acts as the positive terminal, allowing electrons to
flow. The carbon rod and the depolarizer are placed inside
a porous bag, and between the bag and the container we
find the electrolyte, i.e., the chemical substance which
allows the chemical reaction to take place. This electrolyte
is a paste and not a liquid and fills the container. The zinc
container also acts as the negative pole, to complete the
circuit. The other only element left is the sealing compound
at the top of the container to avoid all the other
components of the cell from going out
VIDEO1: MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p77)
• This is the well known display of THE MAGNETIC
FIELD of a permanent magnet displayed BY the
DISTRIBUTION of iron filings.
• The whole of this programme is ABOUT displaying
MAGNETIC FIELDS in one way or another.
• Of course the trouble with magnetic fields is that you
cannot actually see them. So, what I'll try to do in this
programme is to DEMONSTRATE them to you and to
show THAT THEY CAN BE SHAPED AND
CONTROLLED BY showing their effects RATHER
THAN the fields themselves.
VIDEO2 : MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p77)
• This particular display of THE MAGNETIC FIELD OF A
PERMANENT MAGNET shows the field very clearly …
• …because the iron filings distribute themselves ALONG
THE DIRECTIONS OF THE LINES OF FORCE,
• …if that's the NORTH POLE and that's the South pole,
the LINES OF FORCE RUN FROM THE N POLE TO
THE S POLE
• … and the iron filings distribute themselves ALONG
these lines pointing TOWARDS the pole pieces of the
magnet. So in that particular instance the field is very
clearly demonstrated.
VIDEO3 : MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p77)
• I can represent this with a diagram. HERE THERE IS A
DIAGRAM OF A PERMANENT MAGNET, N AT one
end and S. AT the other,
• …and the lines of force are running FROM THE N POLE
TO THE S POLE, roughly along the same pattern as
you saw in the iron filings demonstration.
• So, this is A SIMPLE GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION
of the kind of thing that happens with a permanent
magnet.
VIDEO 4: MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p77-78)
• Now, let's put two permanent
magnets side BY side. THIS IS THE
DISTRIBUTION OF LINES OF
FORCE THAT you get. They're
squeezed together BETWEEN these
two magnets, when the N is NEXT
TO N, and S. is NEXT TO S. What
does this actually mean IN
PRACTICE?
VIDEO 5: MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p77-78)
• I can show this with some actual permanent magnets
that I have here, THEY ARE PERMANENT MAGNETS
MADE OF STEEL with N pole marked at each end so
that this resembles the diagram you just looked at. So if I
push the two together quite clearly ONE IS REPELLING
THE OTHER; if I press the two together side by side, it
is firmly pushed away. So, THERE IS A FORCE OF
REPULSION HERE. Let's go back to the diagram to see
how we might explain it.
• You see here the lines are apparently compressed and
they actually behave very much as though they are
ELASTIC AND COMPRESSIBLE so when lines of force
get compressed like that they do represent A FORCE
OF REPULSION shown here by these white arrows.
VIDEO 6 : MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p78)
• If I TURN THE MAGNETS ROUND so that N is now
FACING S I'm sure you are very familiar with the fact they
attract ONE ANOTHER like this. This again can be shown
ON the diagram. Here the LINES OF FORCE now running
FROM N TO S are pulling the magnets together, there's A
FORCE OF ATTRACTION AS again shown by the arrows.
• The first main point I want to get over is that actually THESE
FIELDS CAN BE QUITE EASILY SHAPED BY USING
PIECES OF IRON to do this.
VIDEO 7 : MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p78)
• Here I've got some pieces of iron. They ARE NOT
MAGNETIC at all, they DON'T ATTRACT EACH OTHER,
but if I put them along side these magnets like this, ALONG
one side so the two magnets face again, the two N poles
REPELLING, the two N poles OPPOSITE each other, so
they should repel EACH OTHER, what do you think will
happen?
• Let's see. NOTHING AT ALL. The FORCE OF REPULSION
has been almost completely removed. So, what happened is
that the MAGNETIC FIELD that was filling the gap
BETWEEN the magnets has been shunted away down the
iron; IRON IS A VERY MUCH MORE ATTRACTIVE route
for magnetic fields than does air; so it's been shunted away
and THE FORCE OF REPULSION IS REMOVED.
VIDEO 8 : MAGNETIC CIRCUITS (p78)
•
•
•
Here you see the magnetic lines which were in the gap BETWEEN them as they
are still OUTSIDE the gap but now the lines have been shunted THROUGH the
iron represented BY this light grey area, shunted through there, LINES AGAIN
RUNNING FROM N TO S, in both magnets and the gap between them, you
see, has no lines of force left, SO THERE IS NO FORCE OF REPULSION LEFT
either.
Now I can demonstrate this effect rather more dramatically with a different pair of
magnets. Here I have a ferrite magnet. IT IS A MEGNETIC MATERIAL, ceramic
in nature and CAN BE MAGNETIZED quite strongly. Here you see there are two
rings, one ABOVE the other, the upper one is being supported BY THE
MAGNETIC FORCE exerted BY the lower one. All the magnetic forces interreact
to be more exact. This kind of levitation of a body DUE TO magnetic field will be
demonstrated in the next TV programme where the method is used to levitate a
train ABOVE the track.
But I can show you how the field can be shunted away FROM these two by
taking these pieces of iron again and slipping them between the magnets. As I
put them in, THE MAGNETIC FIELD IS GRADUALLY REMOVED until there
isn't any left and the upper magnet sinks DOWN onto the lower one, and
THERE IS NO FORCE OF REPULSION left; removing these pieces of iron
restores the levitation of the ring magnet.

4- The cross section of a wire is also
important. Thus, a thick wire offers a
low resistance to the flow of electricity,
whereas a thin wire increases
resistance. Thick wires are therefore
used for distributing / to distribute
electricity from power plants to our
houses.
