Description
We begin with a
discussion of basic electrical phenomena such as current, voltage, resistance
and power, before applying these ideas to the analysis of circuits, including
series and parallel circuits. We then apply these concepts to understand a
number of interesting phenomena, including light bulbs, lightning, and why
electricity can be dangerous. Recommended pre-listening is Episode 43: Electric
Forces and Fields.
