Understanding Electricity

Electricity is a branch of Physics that concerns the properties and movement of electrically charged particles, usually through wires.

Electricity and Magnetism are interrelated. Movement of electrical charges creates magnetic fields, while changes in magnetis fields can create electricity.

The purpose of these free online lessons is to give you a start at improving your scientific knowledge about electricity that will help you become a champion in the field. If you have any questions, send me an email.
