17.5 Resistivity - Example (a) Calculate the resistance per unit length of a 22-gauge nichrome wire of radius 0.321 m. Cross section: Resistivity (Table): 1.5 x 10-6 Wm. Resistance/unit length: 9/21/2018
17.5 Resistivity - Example (b) If a potential difference of 10.0 V is maintained across a 1.0-m length of the nichrome wire, what is the current? 9/21/2018
17.6 Temperature Variation of Resistance - Intro The resistivity of a metal depends on many (environmental) factors. The most important factor is the temperature. For most metals, the resistivity increases with increasing temperature. The increased resistivity arises because of larger friction caused by the more violent motion of the atoms of the metal. 9/21/2018
r is the resistivity at temperature T (measured in Celsius). For most metals, resistivity increases approx. linearly with temperature. r T Metallic Conductor r is the resistivity at temperature T (measured in Celsius). ro is the reference resistivity at the reference temperature To (usually taken to be 20 oC). a is a parameter called temperature coefficient of resistivity. For a conductor with fixed cross section. r T Superconductor 9/21/2018
17.6 Temperature Variation of Resistance - Example Platinum Resistance Thermometer A resistance thermometer, which measures temperature by measuring the change in the resistance of a conductor, is made of platinum and has a resistance of 50.0 W at 20oC. When the device is immersed in a vessel containing melting indium, its resistance increases to 76.8 W. Find the melting point of Indium. Solution: Using a=3.92x10-3(oC)-1 from table 17.1. 9/21/2018

17.7 Superconductivity Current can flow, even if E=0. 1911: H. K. Onnes, who had figured out how to make liquid helium, used it to cool mercury to 4.2 K and looked at its resistance: At low temperatures the resistance of some metals0, measured to be less than 10-16•ρconductor (i.e., ρ<10-24 Ωm)! Current can flow, even if E=0. Current in superconducting rings can flow for years with no decrease! 1957: Bardeen (UIUC!), Cooper, and Schrieffer (“BCS”) publish theoretical explanation, for which they get the Nobel prize in 1972. It was Bardeen’s second Nobel prize (1’st: 1956 – transistor) 9/21/2018
17.8 Electrical energy and power In any circuit, battery is used to induce electrical current chemical energy of the battery is transformed into kinetic energy of mobile charge carriers (electrical energy gain) Any device that possesses resistance (resistor) present in the circuit will transform electrical energy into heat kinetic energy of charge carriers is transformed into heat via collisions with atoms in a conductor (electrical energy loss) I V = IR + - D C B A 9/21/2018
Electrical energy Consider circuit on the right in detail AB: charge gains electrical energy form the battery (battery looses chemical energy) CD: electrical energy lost (transferred into heat) Back to A: same potential energy (zero) as before Gained electrical energy = lost electrical energy on the resistor C B A D 9/21/2018
Power Compute rate of energy loss (power dissipated on the resistor) Use Ohm’s law Units of power: SI: watt delivered energy: kilowatt-hours 9/21/2018
Example Power Transmission line A high-voltage transmission line with resistance of 0.31 W/km carries 1000A , starting at 700 kV, for a distance of 160 km. What is the power loss due to resistance in the wire? Given: V=700000 V r=0.31 W/km L=160 km I=1000 A Find: P=? Observations: Given resistance/length, compute total resistance Given resistance and current, compute power loss Now compute power 9/21/2018
Mini-quiz Why do the old light bulbs usually fail just after you turn them on? When the light bulb is off, its filament is cold, and its resistance is R0. Once the switch it thrown, current passes through the filament heating it up, thus increasing the resistance, This leads to decreased amount of power delivered to the light bulb, as Thus, there is a power spike just after the switch is thrown, which burns the light bulb. 9/21/2018
Chapter 18: Direct Current Circuits 9/21/2018
Introduction: elements of electrical circuits A branch: A branch is a single electrical element or device (resistor, etc.). A junction: A junction (or node) is a connection point between two or more branches. If we start at any point in a circuit (node), proceed through connected electric devices back to the point (node) from which we started, without crossing a node more than one time, we form a closed-path (or loop). A circuit with 5 branches. A circuit with 3 nodes. 9/21/2018
18.1 Sources of EMF Steady current (constant in magnitude and direction) requires a complete circuit path cannot consist only of resistances: cannot have only potential drops in direction of current flow Electromotive Force (EMF) provides increase in potential E converts some external form of energy into electrical energy Single emf and a single resistor: emf can be thought of as a “charge pump” I V = IR E + - V = IR = E 9/21/2018
18.1 Sources of EMF (continued) Important note: in our complete circuit, conservation of energy requires that as we travel around the circuit we should encounter a number of voltage drops and increases so that we get back to the same potential we started with! I V = IR E + - V = IR = E Start with 0V here and move clockwise 9/21/2018
EMF Each real battery has some internal resistance AB: potential increases by E, the source of EMF, then decreases by Ir (because of the internal resistance) Thus, terminal voltage on the battery DV is Note: E is the same as the terminal voltage when the current is zero (open circuit) B C r R E A D 9/21/2018
EMF (continued) Now add a load resistance R Since it is connected by a conducting wire to the battery → terminal voltage is the same as the potential difference across the load resistance Thus, the current in the circuit is B C r R E A D Power output: 9/21/2018 Note: we’ll assume r negligible unless otherwise is stated
Measurements in electrical circuits Voltmeters measure Potential Difference (or voltage) across a device by being placed in parallel with the device. V Ammeters measure current through a device by being placed in series with the device. A 9/21/2018

18.2 Resistors in series 1. Because of the charge conservation, all charges going through the resistor R2 will also go through resistor R1. Thus, currents in R1 and R2 are the same, A B I 2. Because of the energy conservation, total potential drop (between A and C) equals to the sum of potential drops between A and B and B and C, C By definition, Thus, Req would be 9/21/2018
Resistors in series: notes Analogous formula is true for any number of resistors, It follows that the equivalent resistance of a series combination of resistors is greater than any of the individual resistors. (series combination) 9/21/2018
Resistors in series: example In the electrical circuit below, find voltage across the resistor R1 in terms of the resistances R1, R2 and potential difference between the battery’s terminals V. Energy conservation implies: A B with I Then, C Thus, This circuit is known as voltage divider. 9/21/2018
