Electricity and Circuits

The readings for today introduce basic quantities, components, and equations governing electrical circuits:

Electricity
Basic principles of particles, charge, energy, and circuits
Voltage, Current, Resistance, and Ohm's Law
Foundational quantities and their relationship
Resistors
The essential component described by Ohm's linear V-I Law
Diodes
Another important component with a non-linear V-I behavior
Kirchhoff's Law
The fundamental relationship among voltages on a circuit
