Learning Unit: What is Electricity

Manifestations of Electricity

●

Matter has electrical properties (Electromagnetic Interaction).

●

Electricity (charge) is a manifestation of matter and is always bound to particles.

●

Electricity is a basic phenomenon of matter whose nature is unknown to us.

●

Electricity we can only perceive through it’s impact.

●

Electricity manifests several effects  that can be observed.

●

About the effects of electricity we can make very precise predictions.

●

The forces of electricity can be harnessed by technological means.

●

The technological use of the forces of electricity is described in Electrical Engineering.

●

Our knowledge of electrical engineering allows us to calculate the forces of electricity very accurately.
