Benjamin Franklin (January 17, 1706 – April 17, 1790) was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Franklin was a leading author, printer, political theorist, politician, postmaster, scientist, musician, inventor, satirist, civic activist, statesman, and diplomat. As a scientist, he was a major figure in the American Enlightenment and the history of physics for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity. He invented the lightning rod, bifocals, the Franklin stove, a carriage odometer, and the glass 'armonica‘. He facilitated many civic organizations, including a fire department and a university.

Electrical Current • Current • the rate of flow of charge through a conductor measured in Amperes (1 A = 1 C/s) • Charge of the Electron • e = -1.603 10-19 Coulombs • Conventional Current • Direction of flow of positive (+) charges • Electron Current • Opposite to that of conventional current
Effect of Electric Currents on the Body • 0.001 A can be felt • 0.005 A is painful • 0.010 A causes involuntary muscle contractions • 0.015 A causes loss of muscle control • 0.070 A can be fatal if the current last for more than 1 second
Electricity & Safety • Body Resistance • 100 Ohms (soaked in salt water) • 500,000 Ohms (very dry) • How much voltage is fatal if you have dry skin? • ...if you are soaked in salt water? • “Current Kills” • How can we keep currents low in the lab?
Current Equation Charge in Coulombs (C) Current in Amperes (A) Time in Seconds (s) Calculus:
Types of Electricity • Static Electricity - no motion of free charges • Current Electricity - motion of free charges • Direct Current (DC) • Alternating Current (AC) (Plot On Chalk Board)
Voltage • Voltage is the measure of the potential to move electrons. • 1 Volt = 1 Joule/Coulomb • Sources of Voltage • Batteries (DC) • Wall Outlets (AC)
More Circuit Symbols • DC Voltage Supply • AC Voltage Supply • DC Current Supply • AC Current Supply
Kirchhoff’s Current Law • “The net current in a node is zero.” • For example…
Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law • “The sum of the voltages in any closed loop is zero.”
