Energy, Environment, and Industrial Development Michael B. McElroy Frederick H. Abernathy Lecture 16 April 10, 2006 An atom in its normal state is electrically neutral. If it loses an electron, it assumes a positive charge and is known as a positive ion. The fundamental unit of negative charge is that carried by an electron 2 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM Charge in the SI system of units is expressed in units of coulombs (C): French physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb (1736-1806). The charge on an electron = -1.602x1019 C. How many electrons do you need to provide a charge of -1 C? 1 1019 18 6.2 x10 19 1.602 x10© Science A152.602 FHA + MBM 3 Consider the electrostatic force between particles of charge q1 and q2. The force on q1 due to the rˆ presence of q2 is given by Fq1 kq1 q 2 r q2 r 2 q1 r rˆ r This is known as Coulomb’s Law 4 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM Suppose the charges q1 and q2 have opposite signs. For example, suppose q2 represents the charge on a proton and q1 the charge on an electron as in a hydrogen atom. rˆ Fq1 k q 1 q 2 r 2 The force is now directed opposite to r̂ : it acts to attract particles of opposite sign. Particles of the same sign are repelled 5 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM Coulomb’s Law: With charges expressed in units of Coulombs (C) and distance in m, F is in Newtons (N), with k = 8.99x109Nm2C-2 Check units: F N rˆ F kq1 q 2 2 r k Nm2C-2 q1 q 2 C2 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM rˆ 2 r m-2 6 Example A1.14 The charge passing position P in the conductor in unit time defines what is known as current P If charge Δq passes P in time Δt, then I = Δq/ Δt defines current I has dimensions of charge per unit time, Coulomb sec-1 The unit of current is the ampere (A) honoring Andre-Marie Ampere (17751836) 7 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM The electrostatic force on a particle of charge q is given by qE Here E is a vector known as the electric field The gravitational force on a particle of mass m is given by mg, where g is the acceleration of gravity E, the electric field, is analogous to the field defining the gravitational force experienced by a particle of unit mass 8 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM To move a particle of charge q through a displacement Δr in the presence of an electric field E requires an input of work W q E r If we wish to move q in a direction opposite to E, then E r is negative. Hence ΔW is positive. Work must be done to move a (positive) charge q against the direction of the electric field. Work must be done to move a mass m up against the gravitational field. 9 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM Work done to move unit charge from ab in the presence of an electric field E: b W Vb Va E r a V is known as the electric potential or simply as the potential. The potential is expressed in units of Volts (V) 10 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM It follows that the electric field has dimensions of Vm-1 A positive charge placed in the electric field E will accelerate in the direction of the field: ΔW < 0 Vb – Va < 0 Vb < Va The motion proceeds from high to low voltage Gravitational analogue: If mass falls from ab, its kinetic energy increases, its potential energy decreases 11 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM A material with the property that it can maintain a net flow of charge is known as a conductor. Examples: copper or aluminum wire. In the presence of an electric field, or equivalently a voltage differential, electrons will move Electrons move from low to high voltage: current flows from high to low as though charge was transferred by positively charged particles. 1A is equivalent to a flow of charge equal to 1C sec-1 12 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM Ohm’s Law, named for Bavarian George Simon Ohm (1789-1854) defines a relation between current and voltage: ΔV = RI R is known as the resistance. R has dimensions of V A-1 The unit of R in the SI system is know as the ohm (Ω) 13 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM For a wire of length L and cross section A, R = r L/A where r, known as the resistivity, is a property of the medium r has dimensions of ohm meters 14 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM The loss of electrical energy per unit time due to movement of charge from ab through a voltage drop V is given by multiplying the charge transferred per unit time by the work exerted by the electric field on unit charge Using Ohm’s Law P = IV = I (RI) = I2R Or, P = I2 r (L/A) q P( )V IV t 15 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM Figure A1.8 16 © Science A 52 FHA + MBM To maintain a steady current I a conductor requires a continuous input of energy.
