Voltage Chapter 3
2
Voltage (V or E) Supplies the force or pressure required to move electrons through a circuit. Unit – Volt (V) AKA – Electromotive Force EMF
3
Voltage Sources Friction – Van de Graaf Generator
4
Voltage Source Generator – Most Common
5
Voltage Source Cell – Battery: Chemical Reaction
6
Voltage Source Photovoltaic Cell Light → Voltage
7
Voltage Source Thermocouple Heat → Voltage
8
Voltage Source Piezoelectric Effect Pressure → Voltage
9
Cells and Batteries Primary Cells Cannot be Recharged
10
Cells and Batteries Secondary Cells Can be Recharged
11
Connecting Voltage Sources Series Aiding Series Opposing - - + + - - + +
12
Voltage Sources Voltage sources added in Series increase the Voltage and the Current stays the same. V = 1.5v I = 1A V = 4.5v I = 1A
13
V = 4.5v I = 1A
14
Voltage Sources Voltage sources added in Parallel increase the Current and the Voltage stays the same. V = 1.5v I = 1A V = 1.5v I = 3A
15
V=1.5v I =3A
16
Example Example Battery: V = 1.5v, I = 1A V=3v I= 3A V=3v I=1A
17
V=3v I=3A
18
Battery: V = 1.5v and I = 100mA 9v 100mA V T = 9v I T =500mA V T = 9v and I T = 500ma
19
V T = 9v I T =500mA
20
Voltage Rise Voltage Rise can be defined as the energy added to a circuit.
21
Voltage Drop A Voltage Drop is defined as the energy removed or used in a circuit.
22
Voltage Drop
23
Earth Ground Zero Voltage reference point. Limits build up of electrical charge. Limits exposure to high voltages.
24
Electrical Ground Ground is defined as the zero reference point which against all voltages are measured.
