EET 110 - Survey of Electronics Chapter 11 - Ohms Law
Chapter 11 - Ohms Law • Electrical Units and prefixes • Voltage - V, emf or E - in VOLTs (V) • Current - I in AMPEREs (A) • Resistance - R in Ohms ()
Prefixes • billion - 109 - giga - G • million - 106 - mega - M • thousand - 103 - kilo - k • one - 100 - • one thousandth - .001 - 10-3 - milli - m • one millionth - .000001 - 10-6 - micro - • one billionth - 10-9 - nano - n • one trillionth - 10-12 - pico - p
Units • To convert amperes (A) to milliamperes (mA), move the decimal point three places to the right. • .012A = 12 mA • To convert mA to A, move to the left • 450mA = .45A
Chapter 11- Ohms Law • The basic form of ohms law is
Alternately this is • The current, (I) in a circuit is directly proportional to the applied voltage (V) and inversely proportional to the resistance (R)
Alternate forms • Three forms of Ohms law • I = V/R • V = I x R • R = V/I
To calculate current • if V = 120v, R = 15 ohms, what is the current?
Voltage • If a DC generator delivers 2.5A to a lamp that has 50ohms resistance, voltage must be?
Resistance • Suppose an electric kettle draws current of 8A when connected to 120v. What is the resistance?
Ohms Law Circle V I R
Power Formulas • Power in watts = volts x amperes • P = V x I • using ohms law we can get • P = I 2 R • P = V 2/ R
