Standards/Objective A charged object can be charged in one of two ways, which we call either positively charged or negatively charged.

Two objects that are charged in the same manner exert a force of repulsion on each other, while oppositely charged objects exert a force of attraction on each other.

Electrical circuits require a complete loop through which an electrical current can pass.

Electric currents and magnets can exert a force on each other.

Ohm’s Law shows the relationship between resistance, current, and voltage in a circuit.
