Pure silicon atoms are good insulators

Copper atoms are good conductors
Copper, a metallic material,
happens to be an excellent electrical
conductor. It has 29 protons
and 29 electrons.
The electrons are in 4 distinct
orbital orbit locations called “shells”.
Note that the highest shell contains a
single electron. This electron is
located far away from the nucleus,
and is therefore weakly attached to the
atom’s charged particle structure.

What are insulators?
Insulators are materials that greatly resist the flow of
electrons. Here are some examples:
glass
oil
fiberglass
ceramic
(dry) cotton
(dry) wood
air
pure water
rubber
asphalt
porcelain
quartz
(dry) paper
plastic
diamond
Is air really a poor conductor?
What are the electrical components called resistors?
Resistors are electrical components very often used in electrical
circuits to control the amount of current. Resistor are available in a
large range of values and are typically made using these types of
materials:
Resistive metal film
Resistive wire
Carbon film
Carbon composition
Metal oxides
Cement
This is the electrical symbol for a resistor. Its
resistance value, R, is measured in ohms.
How do we read the ohm value (W) of older resistors?

1000 = Brown-Black-Red

Note exeception
* Note: some resistors have a third digit before the multiplier.
Smaller resistors are 1/8 watt; larger is 1/4 watt

(1827) George Simon Ohm develops Ohm’s Law
Voltage = (current) x (resistance)
http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/Biographies/Ohm.html
Ohm’s Law
Ohm’s law states:
V=IR
where
V is voltage (measured in volts),
I is current (measured in Amps)
R is resistance (measured in Ohms)
This equation can be restated as I = V/R, or R = V/I
Use Ohm’s law to calculate current in this circuit
I=?
+
V = 9.0 v
R = 1000 ohms
-
• To calculate the current, divide the voltage drop across the resistor by the
resistor’s ohm value. For instance I = V/R = (9.0/1000) = (0.009 amps) = 9 ma.
• To calculate the voltage drop across the resistor, multiply the current by the
ohms. For instance V = IR = (0.009 x 1000) = (9.0 v).
• To calculate resistance, divide the voltage across the resistor by the
current. For instance R = V/I = (9.0/0.009) = 1000 ohms
