How to Get the Bulb to Light? Electric Current The electric current, I is the amount of charge per unit time that passes through a surface that is perpendicular to the motion of the charges. Ch arg e I . Time The SI unit of electric current is the ampere (A), after the French mathematician André Ampére (1775-1836). 1 A = 1 C/s. Ampere is a large unit for current. In practice milliampere (mA) and microampere (μA) are used. Direction of Current Flow Electric current is a flow of electrons. In a circuit, electrons (negatively charged) actually flow through the metal wires. Conventional electric current is defined using the flow of positive charges. It is customary to use a conventional current I in the opposite direction to the electron flow. Direction of Current Flow What Limits the Flow of Current? What Limits the Flow of Current? A: Resistance Electric Current Is Analogous to Water Flow Voltage or Electromotive Force (emf) The energy needed to run electrical devices comes from batteries. Within a battery, a chemical reaction occurs that transfers electrons from one terminal (leaving it positively charged) to another terminal (leaving it negatively charged). Because of the positive and negative charges on the battery terminals, an electric potential difference exists between them. The maximum potential difference is called the electromotive force* (emf) of the battery. The electric potential difference is also known as the voltage, V. The SI unit for voltage is the volt, after Alessandro Volta (17451827) who invented the electric battery. 1 volt = 1 J/C. Ohm’s Law Georg Simon Ohm (1787-1854), a German physicist, discovered Ohm’s law in 1826. This is an experimental law, valid for both alternating current (ac) and direct current (dc) circuits. When you pass an electric current (I) through a resistance (R) there will be a potential difference or voltage (V) created across the resistance. Ohm’s law gives a relationship between the voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) as follows: Voltage = Current X Resistance V=IR What Is the Current? Circuits Series Circuit Parallel Circuit Electrical Energy Electrical Energy and Power Our daily life depends on electrical energy. We use many electrical devices that transform electrical energy into other forms of energy. For example, a light bulb transforms electrical energy into light and heat. Electrical devices have various power requirements. Electrical power, P is defined as the electrical energy transfer per unit time, Energy P . time Electric Power: Energy P . time Since the electrical energy is charge times voltage (QV), the above equation becomes, QV P . t Since the current is charge flow per unit time (Q/t), the above equation becomes, QV Q P V I V . t t Since V = IR, the above equation can also be written as, V2 P IV I R . R 2 Killowatt-hour (kWh) The SI unit of power is watt, after James Watt (17361819), who developed steam engines. joule J watt W . sec ond s Utility companies use the unit kilowatt-hour to measure the electrical energy used by customers. One kilowatthour, kWh is the energy consumed for one hour at a power rate of 1 kW. Household Circuits AC adapter INPUT: AC 120 V, 60 Hz, 15 W OUTPUT: DC 9V, 1A Direct and Alternating Current Current from a battery flows steadily in one direction (direct current, DC). Current from a power plant varies sinusoidally (alternating current, AC). Alternating Current Alternating Voltage Effective voltage = 115 V Electromagnetic Induction Induced Current (a) When there is no relative motion between the coil of wire and the bar magnet, there is no current in the coil. (b) A current is created in the coil when the magnet moves toward the coil. (c) A current also exists when the magnet moves away from the coil, but the direction of the current is opposite to that in ( b). Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction Michael Faraday found experimentally that the magnitude of the induced emf is proportional to the rate at which the magnetic flux changed. Faraday’s law can be written as, N ; B A. t where N is the number of turns in the loops, A is the area of one loop, ξ is the induced emf, Φ is the magnetic flux, and B┴ is the perpendicular component of the magnetic field. Guitar The Magnetic Playback Head of a Tape Deck A Moving Coil Microphone Loudspeaker Loudspeakers use the principle that a magnet exerts a force on a current-carrying wire to convert electrical signals into mechanical vibrations, producing sound. Radio and Television; Wireless Communication This figure illustrates the process by which a radio station transmits information. The audio signal is combined with a carrier wave: Radio and Television; Amplitude Modulation The mixing of signal and carrier can be done two ways. First, by using the signal to modify the amplitude of the carrier (AM): Radio and Television; Frequency Modulation (FM) Second, by using the signal to modify the frequency of the carrier (FM): Radio and Television; Receiver At the receiving end, the wave is received, demodulated, amplified, and sent to a loudspeaker: Radio and Television; Tuner The receiving antenna is bathed in waves of many frequencies; a tuner is used to select the desired one:
