Electricity and Magnetism encompasses the study of electric forces, electric fields, electric current, magnetic forces, and magnetic fields. The subject covers Coulomb's law describing electric forces, Ohm's law relating voltage and current, magnetic field generation by currents, and electromagnetic induction where changing magnetic fields produce electric fields. Learners will understand how electricity and magnetism are interconnected phenomena forming the electromagnetic force. Understanding electricity and magnetism is essential for comprehending modern technology including motors, generators, and telecommunications.
Upon completing this subject, learners will be able to understand electric fields and forces. They will analyze Coulomb's law applications. Learners will understand electric current and Ohm's law. They will analyze circuits and power. Learners will understand magnetic fields and forces. They will evaluate electromagnetic induction. Finally, learners will synthesize information to understand how electricity and magnetism interrelate.
