Electric Circuits

In an electric circuit, an energy source and an energy consuming device are connected by conducting wires through which electric charges move. Within a battery, a chemical reaction occurs that transfers electrons from one terminal to another terminal. The maximum potential difference across the terminals is called the electromotive force (emf).

The electric current is the amount of charge per unit time that passes through a surface that is perpendicular to the motion of the charges. One coulomb per second equals one ampere (A). André-Marie Ampère (1775 –1836) was a French physicist and mathematician who is generally regarded as one of the main discoverers of electromagnetism

If the charges move around the circuit in the same direction at all times, the current is said to be direct current (dc). If the charges move first one way and then the opposite way, the current is said to be alternating current (ac).

The resistance (R) is defined as the ratio of the voltage V applied across a piece of material to the current I through the material. Construct a circuit according to the diagram above. Open and close the switch. Explain why an open switch stops the current. What are the 3 things that are required for an electric to flow?

1.Construct an electric circuit with a DC source (battery) and draw a diagram of the circuit. Sketch an I(t) graph.

2. Construct an electric circuit with a temp. DC source (capacitor). Draw a schematic diagram of the circuit.. Sketch an I(t) graph.

3. Use a hand generator to power the light bulb and write down your observations: what happens with the light bulb as you rotate the handle back and forth? What can you deduce about the motion of electrons through the filament on the bulb?

Example Calculating charge and EPE The current in a 3.0 V battery of a pocket calculator is 0.17 mA. In one hour of operation, (a) how much charge flows in the circuit and (b) how much energy does the battery deliver to the calculator circuit?

Conventional current is the hypothetical flow of positive charges that would have the same effect in the circuit as the movement of negative charges that actually does occur. WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THE “WRONG” CURRENT???

OHM’S LAW The ratio V/I is a constant, where V is the voltage applied across a piece of material and I is the current through the material: SI Unit of Resistance: volt/ampere (V/A) = ohm (Ω) Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Gerolamo Umberto Volta (1745 –1827) Georg Ohm (1789 – 1854)

To the extent that a wire or an electrical device offers resistance to electrical flow, it is called a resistor (load). Example 2 A Flashlight The filament in a light bulb is a resistor in the form of a thin piece of wire. The wire becomes hot enough to emit light because of the current in it. The flashlight uses two 1.5-V batteries to provide a current of 0.40 A in the filament. Determine the resistance of the glowing filament.

For a wide range of materials, the resistance of a piece of material of length L and sectional area A is

Example 3 Longer Extension Cords The instructions for an electric lawn mower suggest that a 20-gauge extension cord can be used for distances up to 35 m, but a thicker 16-gauge cord should be used for longer distances. The cross sectional area of a 20-gauge wire is 5.2x10 -7 Ω·m, while that of a 16-gauge wire is 13x10 -7 Ω·m. Determine the resistance of (a) 35 m of 20-gauge copper wire and (b) 75 m of 16-gauge copper wire.

Circuits where there is a path of least resistance avoiding loads (appliances, resistors, etc.) is called a short circuit (hazardous!) Use 2 light bulbs, a battery and 2 switches to construct a circuit in which one of the switches will dim one of the light bulbs

Ammeter measures current

Voltmeter measures voltage (potential difference)

There are many circuits in which more than one device is connected to a voltage source. Construct a circuit with 1 light bulb. Add another. Observe the change in brightness. Make a conclusion about the current. Connect the A-meter to the left of the first resistor (LB). Write down the reading. Repeat your measurement putting the Am- meter to the right of the second resistor (LB). Compare the reading. Make a conclusion. Turn the multi-meter into a V-meter. Measure potential drop across the battery and across each resistor. Measure potential drop on the battery. Make a conclusion

I R V

Construct a circuit with 1 light bulb. Add another. Observe the change in brightness. Make a conclusion about the current. Use an Ammeter to check the current through each light bulb (remember how it should be connected) Turn the multi-meter into a V-meter. Measure potential drop across the battery and across each resistor. Measure potential drop on the battery. Make a conclusion

I V R

Conceptual Example 11 A Three-Way Light Bulb and Parallel Wiring Within the bulb there are two separate filaments. When one burns out, the bulb can produce only one level of illumination, but not the highest. Are the filaments connected in series or parallel? How can two filaments be used to produce three different illumination levels?

(parallel and series)
