  1. Learning Objectives • Define Voltage and average electric current. • Use the expression of electric power to determine its value. • Solve questions related to Current and Power. • Explain what is an electric resistor and factors affecting on it.

  2. Learning Outcomes • Students can understand about the Voltage and current and can solve problems related to Power , Current and Voltage. • Students can learn about Resistor.

  3. Voltage • Voltage is a representation of the electric potential energy per unit charge. • Voltage is a scalar quantity. The SI unit of voltage is the volt, such that 1 volt = 1 joule/coulomb.

  4. ELECTRIC CURRENT • The electric current is the rate at which charge flows through cross sectional area.

  5. Average current • ΔQ is the amount of charge that flows through an area A in a time interval Δt and direction of flow is perpendicular to the Area. Iav=ΔQ/Δt • S.I unit of electric current is coulomb/ second ΔQ-------- charges flowing Δt --------- time during which charge was flowing

  6. Charge carriers • Current is the result of flow of both positive and negative charges, these charges are known as “Charge Carriers”. • Example: In a metal charge carriers are electrons. • total energy for charges = ΔU= q Δv • If charge is negative ΔU= -q Δv • The energy carried by an electric current is related to the voltage, E =qV.

  7. Section Current and Circuits 22.1 Electric Power Power is equal to current times the potential difference. • Units of Power is watts, (W, measures the rate at which energy is transferred) • If a generator transfers 1 J of kinetic energy to electric energy each second, it is transferring energy at the rate of (p =E/t units J/s), or 1 W. PowerP= IV

  8. Example 1 • The amount of charge that passes through the filament of a certain light bulb in 2.0 s is 1.67C. • A. Find the average current in the light bulb ? • B. the number of electrons that passes through the filament in 5.0s?

  9. Q 17.1 • A 9.0 v battery delivers a current of 1.34A to the light bulb filament of packet flash light. • A. how much charge passes through the filament in 2.0min? • B. how many electron passes through filament?

  10. Resistor & Resistance • A resistor is a device designed to have a specific resistance. • Resistance • The property determining how much current will flow is called resistance.

  11. Resistance • The resistance, R, is defined as the ratio of electric potential difference, V, to the current, I. • Resistance = R= V/I • Resistance is equal to voltage divided by current. • Units of Resistance is Ohms(W) • One ohm (1 Ω ) is the resistance permitting an electric charge of 1 A to flow when a potential difference of 1 V is applied across the resistance.

  12. Example

  13. Factors depend on Resistance • The resistance of any material with a uniform cross-sectional area is determined by the following factors: • Material • Length • Cross-sectional Area • Temperature

  14. Section Current and Circuits 22.1 • The table below lists some of the factors that impact resistance.

  15. Learning Objectives • Define resistivity and its relation( between resistance, resistivity and material dimensions area and length). • Recognize the internal resistance of sources of electricity (emf). • State Ohm’s law • Use Ohm’s law to solve related problems

  16. Resistivity • Resistivity is the resistance per unit volume. • Resistivity is a measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of electric current. • r = R A/L • r = resistivity (W*m)

  17. Example

  18. Internal Resistance of source(emf) • Emf refers to voltage generated by a battery. • The internal Resistance of the battery is very small r is known as emf electromotive force. • total resistance of the circuit is • Rtotal= r + R

  19. Emf • Electromotive "force" is not a force (measured in newtons) but a potential, or energy per unit of charge, measured in volts. Or • how much work would be done by moving an electric charge. • The electromotive force (EMF) is the maximum potential difference between two electrodes of a galvanic or voltaic cell.

  20. Ohm’s Law • The unit for resistance is named for German scientist Georg Simon Ohm, who found that the ratio of potential difference to current is constant for a given conductor. V=IR

  21. Ohmic devices: Obys Ohm’s Law (Most metallic conductors obey Ohm’s la) • Many important devices, such as transistors and diodes in radios and pocket calculators, and lightbulbs do not obey Ohm’s law. • Example: A 1-m length of a typical wire used in physics labs has a resistance of about 0.03 Ω.

  22. Example • When V is 6 V and R is 30 Ω, the current is 0.2 A. • According to Ohm’s law, • the greater --------voltage (placed across a resistor) the larger the current passing through it. • If the current through a resistor is cut in half, the potential difference also is cut in half.

  23. Resistance Effect • Greater resistance……… • to reduce the current replace the 30-Ω resistor with a 60-Ω
