Ohm’s Law, Power and Energy EE 2010: Fundamentals of Electric Circuits Mujahed AlDhaifallah
Ohm’s Law! • Current flows because Electrons flow from one point to another. • What causes the flow of electrons?
Ohm’s Law! • Current flows because Electrons flow from one point to another. • What causes the flow of electrons? • Voltage (potential difference)
Ohm’s Law! • Current flows because Electrons flow from one point to another. • What causes the flow of electrons? • Voltage (potential difference) • More voltage results in more or less electrons?
Ohm’s Law! • Current flows because Electrons flow from one point to another. • What causes the flow of electrons? • Voltage (potential difference) • More voltage results in more or less electrons? • More electrons
Ohm’s Law! • So does that mean that Current is proportional to Voltage?
Ohm’s Law! • So does that mean that Current is proportional to Voltage? • Yes • The more the voltage the more is the current
Ohm’s Law • What is the effect of resistance?
Ohm’s Law • What is the effect of resistance? • Do more electrons flow when there is a high resistance?
Ohm’s Law • What is the effect of resistance? • Do more electrons flow when there is a high resistance? • No
Ohm’s Law • What is the effect of resistance? • Do more electrons flow when there is a high resistance? • No • The higher the resistance, the less is the current.
Ohm’s Law • What is the effect of resistance? • Do more electrons flow when there is a high resistance? • No • The higher the resistance, the less is the current. • Current is inversely proportional to the resistance.
Ohm’s Law • I = V/R • V=IR • R=V/I
Ohm’s Law • An element with R = 0 is called a short circuit, as for a short circuit, v = iR = 0, current could be any value. • an element with R =∞ is known as an open circuit for an open circuit, i =v/R =0, voltage could be any value
Question • In the circuit shown, calculate the current i.
Power • Power dissipated by charge flowing through a resistor • P = VI • P = V2/R • P = I2R
Question • In the circuit shown, calculate the power p.
Energy • Energy = Power x Time
Question • How much energy (in kilowatthours) is required tolight a 60-W bulb continuously for 1 year (365 days)?
Devices EE 2010: Fundamentals of Electric Circuits Mujahed AlDhaifallah
Battery • Chemical Reactions to produce potential difference • Alkaline and lithium-iodine primary cells • Lead Acid secondary cell • Nickel-Cadmium Secondary cell • Nickel-Hydrogen and Nickel-Metal Hydride Secondary cells • Solar Cells
Power Supply • Used very frequently in all devices. • Transform the AC supply into a lower voltage • Rectify it (?)
Independent voltage source • provides a specified voltage • (independent of the current through the element)
Independent Current Sources • Supplies a fixed amount of current • It is the dual of the battery • In a battery voltage is constant, but current drains out
Dependent source • is a voltage or current generator whose source quantity depends on another circuit variable (current or voltage)
Dependent source • There are four types of dependent sources: • VCVS, VCCS, CCVS, CCCS • Vx: controlling voltage • Ix: controlling current
Example • Compute the power that is absorbed or supplied by the elements in the following network.
Ammeters • Device to measure current • The wire in which current is to be measured is broken up, and are joined via an ammeter. • What should be the resistance of the ammeter?
Voltmeters • Devices to measure voltage • Connected in a parallel fashion across the device where there is a need to measure potential difference. • What should be the resistance of a voltmeter?
Ohmmeters • Used to measure the resistance of a device. • Connected across the two pins of a resistor • Also used to check the continuity of networks.
Wattmeters • Used to measure the dissipation of power in a circuit element. • Includes both an ammeter and a voltmeter. • Displays the multiplication of both measurements.
Fuses and Circuit Breakers • The power supply to the homes is not ideal. • If it goes above a specified level, it can burn the devices. May result in Fire or Smoke. • Fuse wires melt if they experience a large current. • In a breaker, a large current results in a large enough strength in an inbuilt electromagnet to draw the switch open
