Revision

What you need to know already

Charge, Q = ne, where e = 1.6x10-19

​Current, I = Q/t where t is time

Voltage, V = W/Q where W is work @ energy​

Some text here about the topic of discussion

3

Resistance: The river stones

Resistance slows current movement

Resistance is inversely proportional to current, directly to voltage

The higher R, the lower the I @ the higher the V

Resistance can be related to Voltage and Current

R = V / I and its unit is Ohm @ Ω​

​This is called Ohm's Law

Some text here about the topic of discussion

4

Multiple Choice

If voltage is 5 V, and current is 2 A, what is the resistance?

1

10 Ω

2

2.5 Ω

5

Graph will not be straight, meaning that gradient which represent R is different at different I and V

Example: Filamen bulb​

Non Ohmic Conduc..

Follows Ohm's law R=V/I

If V is y axis, I is x axis, R will be gradient, and R will be 1 value (straight line)​

Example: Ohmic resistor​

Ohmic Conductor

Ohmic or non Ohmic?

Ammeter is connected like this

​Voltage is different across each component

VT = V1 + V2 + V3

Current is equal everywhere for one line.

IT = I1 = I2 = I3​

Resistance is added directly

R​T = R1 + R2 + R3

Series Circuit

Question image

(5min) 24V will go through 1Ω, 2Ω and 3Ω. As the voltage is different through each resistance, more resistance more voltage. Using ratio, 24 V going through 6Ω, 4V for each Ω. How much V going to 2Ω resistor?

Voltmeter is connected like this

​Voltage is same across each component

VT = V1 = V2 = V3

Current is equal everywhere for one line.

IT = I1 + I2 + I3​

Resistance is added inversely

1/R​T = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

Multiple Choice

Question image

Given total current 1.12 A, going through resistance R1 and R2. As this is parallel, current different through each line. R2 is double from R1. We can ratio as 3. If 1.12A divide by 3 get 0.37A, what is current flowing to R2?

1

0.37 A

2

0.74 A

17

Multiple Choice

Given total current 1.12 A, if current flowing R2 is 0.74A, what is current flowing to R1?

1

0.37 A

2

0.74 A

Resistance of a wire

Wire properties will affect its resistance

Longer wire = Higher resistance (Directly proportional)

Thinner wire = Higher resistance (Inversely proportional)

Less conductive material = High resistance​ (Directly proportional)

R = (ρ​ x l ) / A

where ρ = resistivity, l = length, A = cross section area
