When an object gains an uneven number of either positively or negatively charged particles, or at the very least has an area that has more positive or negative ions.

• Static Electricity

• Charging by Contact

• Charging by Induction

• Ohm's Law

A flow of electricity that moves through several resistors all along the same path.

• Parallel Circuit

• Ohm's Law

• Series Circuit

• Static Electricity

A flow of electricity that moves through several resistors all on separate branching paths.

• Parallel Circuit

• Series Circuit

• Ohm's Law

When a charged object touches a neutral object, the flow of charges into the neutral object is described this way.

• Charging by Induction

• Charging by Contact
