Chapter 30 Current & Resistance (Resistance and Ohm’s Law)
Review… • Resistivity & conductivity… • Ohm’s Law… where
Resistance and Ohm’s Law Notice: Ohm’s Law is NOT a Law! The materials to which Ohm’s law applies are called Ohmic. • i.e.’s: metals and conductors
Resistance and Ohm’s Law Nonohmicmaterials: • current, I, through the device is NOT directly proportional to the potential difference, ΔV. • i.e.’s: diodes, batteries, and capacitors
Quiz Question 1 The current through a wire is measured as the potential difference V is varied. What is the wire’s resistance? • 0.01 . • 0.02 . • 50 . • 100 . • Some other value.
Resistance and Ohm’s Law Q: How does the voltage drop across the wires compare to the voltage drop across the resistor?
Resistance and Ohm’s Law Q: How does the voltage drop across the wires compare to the voltage drop across the resistor? A: ΔVwire << ΔVresist
i.e. 30.8:A battery and a resistor What resistor would have a 15 mA current if connected across the terminals of a 9.0 V battery?
