Physics 212 Lecture 9, Slide 1
Main Point 1
First, we defined the electric current in a conductor as the amount of charge that
passes through a cross-section of the conductor per unit time (i.e., I = dq/dt). We
developed a microscopic view of current in which the charge carriers are
dissociated electrons in the conductor that move randomly at high speeds (~10^5
m/s), but when a potential difference is introduced across the conductor, the
resultant electric field gives these electrons a non-zero average velocity which is
Physics 212 Lecture 9, Slide 2
the source of the electric current.
Main Point 2
Second, we introduced Ohm’s law that states that, for a wide range of materials,
over a wide range of field strengths, the current density is proportional to the
electric field that gives rise to it. The constant of proportionality is called the
conductivity of the material. We used this constant to characterize the resistance
of a resistor, obtaining the more common form of Ohm’s law in which the voltage
across the resistor is equal to the product of the resistance and the current that
Physics 212 Lecture 9, Slide 3
flows through the resistor.
Main Point 3
Third, we obtained expressions for the equivalent resistance of two resistors
connected either in series or in parallel. Namely, the equivalent resistance of two
resistors in series is simply the sum of the individual resistances, while the inverse
of the equivalent resistance of two resistors connected in parallel is equal to the
sum of the individual inverse resistances.

Main Point 4
Fourth, we determined that the power, the time rate of change of the energy of a
circuit component is always equal to the product of the voltage drop across the
component and the current that flows through the component. In a simple circuit
composed of a single resistor connected to the terminals of the battery, we found
that all of the energy that is supplied by the battery is dissipated as heat in the
