Questions • What is the difference between AC, DC, and static electricity? • Why does a Van de Graaff Generator make your hair stand up? (Give a technical answer.) • Why do clothes sometimes stick together after you take them out of the dryer?
What is Electricity? • From the Greek word “elektron” that means “amber” • There are two types of electricity: • Static Electricity - no motion of free charges • Current Electricity - motion of free charges • Direct Current (DC) • Alternating Current (AC)
2.2 Current • Current is the rate of flow of charge through a conductor. • Conductor • materials with free electrons • e.g. copper, aluminum, gold, most metals • Insulator • materials with no free electrons • e.g. glass, plastics, ceramics, wood • Semiconductor • a class of materials whose electron conductivity is between that of a conductor and insulator • Examples: Silicon, Germanium
Can Air be a Conductor? • Yep!
Electrical Current • Current - the rate of flow of charge through a conductor • Conventional Current • Direction of flow of positive (+) charges • Electron Current • Opposite to that of conventional current
Equation for Current I=Q/t I = the current in Amperes (A) Q = the amount of charge in Coulombs (C) t = the time measured in seconds (s) • The charge of an electron is 1.6 x 10-19 C
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
Example Problem 2.0 • How much charge will pass through a conductor in 0.1 seconds if the current is 0.5 Amperes? • How many electrons are required for this much charge?
Example 2.0 • T = 0.1 s I = 0.5 A I = Q/t, so Q = I*t = (0.5 A)*(0.1 s) = 0.05 C • Charge/e- = 1.6 X 10-19 C/e- # Charges = 0.05 C/ 1.6 X 10-19 C/e- # Charges = 3.125 X 1017 e-
Example 2.1 • Determine the current in amperes through a wire if 18.726 x 1018 electrons pass through the conductor in 0.02 minutes. • 18.726 x 1018 electrons, t = 0.02 min Q = (18.726 x 1018 e-)(1.6 X 10-19 C/e-) Q = 2.99616 C 3 C • I = Q/t = 3 C/(0.02 min)(60 s/min) • I = 2.4968 2.5 A
Example 2.2 • How long will it take 120 C of charge to pass through a conductor if the current is 2 A? • I = Q/t, so t = Q/I = 120 C/2 A t = 60 s
Example Problem 2.3 and 2.4 • Write the following in the most convenient form using Table 2.1: (a) 10,000 V (b) 0.00001 A (c) 0.004 seconds (d) 520,000 Watts (e) 0.0006 A • 4200 V • 1,200,000 V • 0.00004 A (a) 104 V (b) 10-5 A (c) 4 X 10-3 s (d) 5.2 X 105 W (e) 0.6 mA (f) 4.2 kV (g) 1.2 MV (h) 40 mA
Wire Gauge? • AWG = American Wire Gauge • AWG numbers indicate the size of the wire….but in reverse. • For example, No. 12 gauge wire has a larger diameter than a No. 14 gauge wire. • What do we use to keep wires from melting? • Answers: Fuses, Circuit Breakers, GFCI
GFCI = Ground Fault Current Interrupter • Used in kitchens and bathrooms • Trip quicker than circuit breakers
2.3 Voltage • Voltage is the measure of the potential to move electrons. • Sources of Voltage • Batteries (DC) • Wall Outlets (AC) • The term ground refers to a zero voltage or earth potential.
V A Digital Multimeters (DMM) Measurement Device Circuit Symbol Voltage Voltmeter Current Ammeter Resistance Ohmmeter
Batteries • A battery is a type of voltage source that converts chemical energy into electrical energy • The way cells are connected, and the type of cells, determines the voltage and capacity of a battery
More on Batteries • Positive (+) and Negative (-) terminals • Batteries use a chemical reaction to create voltage. • Construction: Two different metals and Acid • e.g. Copper, Zinc, and Citrus Acid • e.g. Lead, Lead Oxide, Sulfuric Acid • e.g. Nickel, Cadmium, Acid Paste • Batteries “add” when you connect them in series. • Circuit Symbol:
Equation for Voltage V=W/Q V = the voltage in volts (V) Q = the amount of charge in Coulombs (C) W = the energy expended in Joules (J)
Example Problem 2.7 • Determine the energy expended by a 12 V battery in moving 20 x 1018 electrons between its terminals.
Example Problem 2.8 • (a) If 8 mJ of energy is expended moving 200 mC from one point in an electrical circuit to another, what is the difference in potential between the two points? • (b) How many electrons were involved in the motion of charge in part (a)?
2.4 Resistance and Ohm’s Law • Resistance it the measure of a material’s ability to resist the flow of of electrons. • It is measure in Ohms (W). • Ohm’s Law: V = I R V or E = voltage I = current R = resistance
Example Problem 2.9 • Determine the voltage drop across a 2.2 kW resistor if the current is 8 mA. Example Problem 2.10 • Determine the current drawn by a toaster having an internal resistance of 22 W if the applied voltage is 120 V.
Example Problem 2.11 • Determine the internal resistance of an alarm clock that draws 20 mA at 120 V.
Equation for Resistance r = resistivity of the material from tables = length of the material in feet (ft) A = area in circular mils (CM) = area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch)
Example Problem 2.12 • Determine the resistance of 100 yards of copper wire having an 1/8 inch diameter. r for copper is 10.37 circular mils/ft (I know, sigh) L = 100 yds = 300 ft ACM = (dmils)2 = (125mils)2 = 15,625 R = rℓ/A = (10.37 CM/ft)(300 ft)/15625 CM R = 0.199 W
Concept Questions • How can you determine the current through a resistor if you know the voltage across it? • I = V/R • How can you change the resistance of a resistor? • Change length, area, or temperature
Resistance depends on Temperature R = resistances t = temperatures a = temperature coefficient from tables
Example Problem 2.15 • The resistance of a copper conductor is 0.3 W at room temperature (20°C). Determine the resistance of the conductor at the boiling point of water (100°C). • R2 = R1[1 + a1(t2 – t1)] • R2 = (0.3 W)[1 + 0.00393(100°-20°)] • R2 = 0.394 W
