Goal
8: The learner will build an understanding of static electricity and direct current electrical circuits.
Objective
1:Analyze the nature of electrical charges.
- Investigate the electrical charging of objects due to transfer of charge.
- Investigate the conservation of electric charge.
- Analyze the relationship among force, charge and distance summarized in Coulomb's law.
