1 Electric Circuits Have you checked out current events today?
2 Circuit Symbolism We can simplify this circuit by using symbols All circuits have an energy source and a load, with wires completing the loop
3 Current Direction Conventional Current flows from positive to negative The electron flow is actually the opposite!
4 AC/DC? DC: Direct current only flows in one direction AC or alternating current switches direction (60 times per second!)
5 Series vs. Parallel In a series circuit, there is only one pathway for current to travel Parallel circuits have more than one path
6 Measuring current The ammeter measures the current through 1 Ammeters are always connected in series with the circuit (or you ll blow it!) Current is a measure of flow rate Q/t I Q t
7 Ex 1: Find I What is the current if 5C of charge flows through the circuit in 10s? I Q t 5C 10s 0.5A
8 Ex 2: Find Q How much charge has flowed through the ammeter if it measures 200mA for 10min? How many electrons? Q It 0.20A600s 120C
9 Batteries Cells in series make up a battery with a voltage equal to the sum (usually 1.5V each) Cells in parallel make up a battery with no more voltage, but it can last longer (or even supply more current as we will find later with emf and internal resistance)
10 Ex 1: what are the voltages of these batteries if they are made of lithium (3.7V) cells? V
11 Measuring Voltage The Voltmeter measures the potential difference (Voltage) across 1 Voltmeters are always connected in parallel across the device
12 Circuit configuration This shows the voltmeter measuring the potential drop across resistor 1 The ammeter measures the current through 1 The long line on the cell indicates the anode: current flows from anode to cathode Electron flow is actually from cathode to anode!

14 Which scenario offers less resistance?
15 Equivalent esistance esistors in series simply add up to give equivalent n i i1 esistance decreases when you add resistors in parallel n i1 1 i 1
16 esistors in series esistance in parallel n i i n i i
17 Ex 1: Find the equivalent resistance Each resistor has a resistance of

20 Ohm s Law The potential difference V required to run a circuit is proportional to current I and resistance V I
21 Ohm s Law V I Put another way, the more resistance, the more energy you need to push things along
22 Ex 1: Find the voltage of the battery if 2 amps are passing through the 3 ohm resistor V I 2A3 6V
23 Ex 2: Find the current passing through the 6 ohm resistor from the 1.5V cell V I I V 1. 5V A
24 Ex 3: Find the resistance if there are 0.5 Amps flowing from the 6V battery V I V I 6V 0.5A 12
25 Ohms Law activity Voltage (Volts) esistance (Ohms) Current (Amps) I (current x resistance) 1 Battery Batteries 10 27
26 Ex 2: Find the current passing through the ammeter given resistors 1,2,3 are 6, 12, and 12 ohms respectively V I I V 1. 5V A
27 Power Since V=J/C and I=C/s, multiplying these we get P IV
28 Ex 3: What is the power delivered to the 6 ohm resistor? P IV
29 Ex 3: What is the power delivered to the 6 ohm resistor? V I A6 0.75V P IV 0.125A 0. 75V 0.094W
30 Exercises p. 184 #1-5 Prep lab p. 193
31 Internal esistance
32 EMF This is the maximum ( unbelievable ) potential difference the battery is capable of delivering As we place greater demands on the chemical reactions occurring inside the battery, we find terminal voltage V T drops This is equivalent to having an internal resistor, r in series with the EMF
33 What does this mean? The potential drop across the internal resistance depends on current V Ir T
34 Ex 1: find the terminal voltage V Ir T V T 6.0V 2.0A V 5. 0V T
35 Ex 2: find the 6.0V internal resistance I 0.0 A When the ammeter is (briefly!) connected, measure the terminal voltage and current V Ir T r V T I r 1.0V 6.0V 5A r 1. 0
36 Ex 2: find the 5.8V internal resistance I 0.0 A When the ammeter is (briefly!) connected, measure the terminal voltage and current V Ir T r V T I r 1.45V 6.0V 3.4A r 1. 34
37 Ex 2: find the internal resistance 6.2V When a current of 0.53A passes through the battery, there is a terminal voltage of 5.4V V Ir T r 1. 5 r V T I
38 Ex 3: find the maximum current 6.2V r 1.5 V Ir T 0 Ir Ir I 4. 1A I max r
39 Ex 2: find the internal resistance 5.4V When a current of 36mA passes through the battery, there is a terminal voltage of 0.5V V Ir T r 136 r V T I
