Conductor: A material that allows current to flow through it due to free charged particles.
Earthed: When an object allows its charge to flow to earth and becomes neutral.
Earthing strap: A flexible metal strap that provides a path of least resistance for charge to travel down to earth.
Electrostatic charge: An electric charge that is not in motion; it is not flowing. Basically electricity without the current.
Insulator: A material that does not allow current to flow through it as it has no free charged particles.
Static Electricity: Unmoving electricity, electrostatic charge.
All of my notes for my 2018 IGCSEs, in an attempt at motivating myself to do work.
