· The student will have knowledge of the purpose of a cell, the purpose of the three parts of a cell, and the difference between the two types of cells.
· The student will have knowledge of the chemical process that takes place in the primary and secondary cells, as well as, define the terms electrochemical action, anode, cathode, and electrolyte.
· The student will have knowledge of the parts of a dry cell, the four basic secondary cells (including their construction, capabilities, and limitations), define a battery, indentify the three ways of combining cells to form a battery, and identify the five types of battery charges.
· The student will have knowledge of the equation for Ohm’s law and the effects on current caused by changes in a circuit. Additionally, using graphs of current versus power and voltage versus power, determine the value of circuit power for a given current and voltage.
· The student will have knowledge of solving for unknown quantities of resistance, current, and voltage in a series circuit. Also, knowledge of how Kirchhoff’s voltage law is used.
· The student will have knowledge of computing resistance, current, voltage and power in voltage dividers and describe the method by which a single voltage divider can provide both positive and negative voltages.
