Read the chapter – Important stuff
HW assigned

5. Current I L - + A V

6. NOTE Electric Current is DEFINED as the flow of POSITIVE CHARGE.
It is really the electrons that move, so the current is actually in the opposite direction to the actual flow of charge. (Thank Franklin!)

7. Charge is moving so there must be an E in the metal conductor!

9. Electrons “Bounce Around”

10. (Average) Current Density
ANOTHER DEFINITION
(Average) Current Density

11. A closed circuit

12. Ohm A particular object will resist the flow of current.
It is found that for any conducting object, the current is proportional to the applied voltage.
STATEMENT: DV=IR
R is called the resistance of the object.
An object that allows a current flow of one ampere when one volt is applied to it has a resistance of one OHM.

13. Ohm’s Law

14. Resistivity and Resistance

17. Not Everything Follows Ohm’s Law

18. Neither does this ……

19. The Battery + -

20. The Real Deal

21. A REAL Power Source is NOT an ideal batteryV
Internal Resistance
By the way …. this is called a circuit!
E or Emf is an idealized device that does an amount of work E to move a unit charge from one side to another.

22. A Physical (Real) Battery
Internal Resistance

23. Back to Potential Change in potential as one circuits
Represents a charge in space
Change in potential as one circuits
this complete circuit is ZERO!

24. Consider a “circuit”.
This trip around the circuit is the same as a path through space.
THE CHANGE IN POTENTIAL FROM “a” AROUND THE CIRCUIT AND BACK TO “a” is ZERO!!

25. To remember
In a real circuit, we can neglect the resistance of the wires compared to the resistors.
We can therefore consider a wire in a circuit to be an equipotential – the change in potential over its length is slight compared to that in a resistor
A resistor allows current to flow from a high potential to a lower potential.
The energy needed to do this is supplied by the battery.

29. Series Combinations
SERIES Resistors
R R2 i
V V2 V

30. The rod in the figure is made of two materials
The rod in the figure is made of two materials. The figure is not drawn to scale. Each conductor has a square cross section 3.00 mm on a side. The first material has a resistivity of 4.00 × 10–3 Ω · m and is 25.0 cm long, while the second material has a resistivity of 6.00 × 10–3 Ω · m and is 40.0 cm long. What is the resistance between the ends of the rod?

31. Parallel Combination??
R1, I1
R2, I2 V

32. What’s This???
In this Figure, find the equivalent resistance between points (a) F and H and [2.5]  (b) F and G. [3.13]  

33. (a) Find the equivalent resistance between points a and b in the Figure.
(b) A potential difference of 34.0 V is applied between points a and b. Calculate the current in each resistor.

37. Some Circuits are HARDER than OTHERS!

38. NEW LAWS PASSED BY THIS SESSION OF THE FLORIDUH LEGISLATURE.
LOOP EQUATION
The sum of the voltage drops (or rises) as one completely travels through a circuit loop is zero.
Sometimes known as Kirchoff’s loop equation.
NODE EQUATION
The sum of the currents entering (or leaving) a node in a circuit is ZERO

39. Take a trip around this circuit.
Consider voltage DROPS:
-E +ir +iR = 0 or
E=ir + iR
rise

40. START by assuming a DIRECTION for each Current
Let’s write the equations.

41. In the figure, all the resistors have a resistance of 4
In the figure, all the resistors have a resistance of 4.0 W and all the (ideal)
batteries have an emf of 4.0 V. What is the current through resistor R?

42. How Fast ? RC Circuit Initially, no current through the circuit
Close switch at (a) and current begins to flow until the capacitor is fully charged.
If capacitor is charged and switch is switched to (b) discharge will follow.
How Fast ?

43. What do you think will happen when we close the swutch?
Close the Switch
I need to use E for E
Note RC = (Volts/Amp)(Coul/Volt)
= Coul/(Coul/sec) = (1/sec)

44. Time Constant

45. Result q=CE(1-e-t/RC)

46. q=CE(1-e-t/RC) and i=(CE/RC) e-t/RC

47. Discharging a Capacitor
qinitial=CE BIG SURPRISE! (Q=CV) i
iR+q/C=0

48. Power
