use these to convert to the standard unit ie: 1km = 1 x 1000 meter 1mV = 1 / 1000 volts G = giga = x 1,000,000,000 = x10^9 M = mega = x 1,000,000 = x10^6 k = kilo = x 1000 = x10^3 m = milli = / 1000 = x10^-3 u (funny u (mu)) = micro = / 1,000,000 = x10^-6 n = nano = / 1,000,000,000 = x10^-9 p = pico = / 1,000,000,000,000 = x10^-12 you can do the inverse of those to convert to a more reasonable scale ie: 120,000V = 12kV 0.15A = 150mA first half of the lesson was learning those and touching up on standard form second half we are going over current and voltage current is the rate of flow of charge, to find the current, i = q/t with i being current, q is culombs and t is time AMETERS GO IN SERIS voltage is the energy tranfered per unit of charge v = e/q with v being volts, e being energy, and q being culombs VOLTMETER GO IN PARRALEL later on we are doing practical, mesuring voltage with circuit with a bulb or a resistor plotted the results on a graph, my resistor graph was perfectly liner and my bulb graph is more similar to a cubic graph - / - kind of like that we looked at a bit of resistance at the end, worksheet work (BRING IT TO THE NEXT LESSON)
