Electric current Electric Current Thermal energy flows from the hotter object to the colder object. Likewise, electrical energy is transferred from areas with higher potential to areas with lower potential. • Careful! NOT necessarily individual charges Quick rate of discharge If you touch a Van der Graaf generator with a wire also connected to the ground, the high potential of the charged dome would very quickly equalize with the ground. Shocking, but not always super useful. Recycling charge? For most applications, recycling charges makes devices much more useful. To recycle charges, we need the equivalent of a pump somewhere in the circuit. Pumps for charges? Charge only moves when there is potential difference Batteries • chemical electrical Generators • mechanical electrical We started the unit with voltage for a reason! Danger? A Van der Graaf generator can build up a potential difference of 20,000 J/C. It’s shocking to touch but not typically dangerous. A car battery maintains a potential difference of just 12 J/C and will seriously harm or kill you if you complete the circuit with your body. Check this from UC Denver Med School Not the potential difference, but the current! Consider flow of water About the same potential difference A romantic spot for a swim with your special someone A disastrous spot for a swim with anyone Electric Current • The flow of water is measured in volume of water per unit time. • The flow of electricity (current) is measured in charge per second, abbreviated as amperes or amps. Coulomb second I=Q/t current = charge / time = ampere or amp or A Named in honor of Andre-Marie Ampere (1775 – 1836) Example In a certain light bulb, 3.0 C of charge pass through the filament in 5.0 s.

Move this box for the answer. = 1.6 C / 0.8 A = 20 s Batteries A battery uses chemical means to cause charge to move continuously through a circuit. Alessandro Volta (1745 – 1827) invented the battery (1800) and described the work done by a battery per unit charge as the ‘electromotive force’, sometimes abbreviated emf and other times (lower case epsilon) a problematic choice of name, since it is not a force 𝜀 𝑊 = 𝑞 𝐽 of 𝐶 has units or volts Graphing potential in a circuit Suppose you connect a 9.0 V battery to a small motor.
