PhySci Final Review 3: Thermal and Electrical

By William Lovering

2

Thermal Energy

Thermal Energy → sum of the kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in an object; thermal energy of an object increases as temperature increases


Heat → thermal energy that flows from something at a higher temperature to something at a lower temperature

3

Temperature

Average kinetic energy of all the particles in a material; measured by a thermometer in degrees (usually degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit)

5

Thermal Energy Transfer

Conduction → Transfer of thermal energy by collisions between particles in matter. Occurs in solids, liquids, & gases. Metals are the best conductors.


Convection → Transfer of thermal energy in a fluid by the movement of warmer and cooler fluid from place to place. Occurs in liquids & gases.


Radiation → Transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves. Occurs in gases only.

8

Heat Transfer

The thermal energy exchange between two objects of different temperatures; energy moves in a predictable pattern from warmer sites to cooler sites until all sites have reached the same temperature

media

9

Conduction

Transfer of thermal energy that occurs in solids, liquids, and gases when two substances of different temperatures touch.


media

10

Convection

Heat transfer caused by the rising of hotter, less dense fluids and the falling of cooler, more dense fluids.

media

11

Radiation

The transfer of energy by the movement of electromagnetic waves or subatomic particles.

media

12

Conductor

A substance that allows the flow of electrical charge or transfers thermal energy through matter.

media

Insulator

A material that does not conduct heat or electric current

21

Electric Fields

  • An electric field is a region around a charged object where the object's electric force is exerted on other charged objects.

  • Because positive charges are repelled by positive charges.. and attracted to negative charges..field lines point away from positive charges and towards negative charges

22

media

23

How Does Charge Build Up?

  • Most atoms are uncharged, or neutral because the protons equal the electrons.

  • Uncharged objects become charged by gaining or losing electrons

  • Static electricity is the buildup of charges on an object

  • In static electricity, charges build up on an object, but they do not flow in a current

24

Charging Objects

  • Charges are neither created nor destroyed. This is known as the law of conservation of charge.

  • If one object loses electrons, another object must pick them up

  • There are four methods by which charges can redistribute themselves: Friction, conduction, induction, polarization


25

media

26

media

27

Charging by Friction

  • Charging by friction is the transfer of electrons from one uncharged object to another by rubbing objects together



media

28

Charging by Conduction

  • When a charged object touches another object, electrons can be transferred

  • This is the process of transferring electrons by direct contact

media

29

Charging by Induction and by Polarization

  • Electrons can react to the electric field of a charged object without touching the object itself. This is induction

  • Polarization occurs when electrons move only within their own atoms. In this case, the electrons create charged ends of the atoms

30

31

media

32

electric currents

media

33

What is an electric current?

The flow of electric charges through a conductor.

34

The difference between static electricity and electric currents.

Electric charges that build up on static electricity do not flow. Instead the charges jump between two objects.


electric currents is a flow of electrons like a stream of water through a conductor like copper or metal.

35

What is a direct current?

  • An electric current in which charges flow in one directly only.

  • The current produces by electrochemical cells is direct current. The chemical energy is being changed into electrical energy.

  • When the switch is on the electric current produced by the dry cells keeps the light bulb on

media

36

Alternating current:

  • type of current that does not flow in one direction only.

  • constantly changes direction at a regular rate.

  • can be transported more easily over long distance

37

What is a Circuit Made of?

  • Objects that use electricity contain circuits

  • All electric circuits have these basic features: devices that run on electrical energy, sources of electrical energy, and conducting wires

38

media

39

Circuit Symbols

  • Battery

  • Bulb

  • Switch

  • Resistor

media

40

Circuit Energy Sources

  • Power plants and batteries are examples of energy sources

  • These supply the voltage that causes current to flow

  • When the energy source is a battery, current flows from the positive end to the negative end

41

media

42

Types of Circuits

  • Series Circuits

  • Parallel circuits

media

43

Series circuits

  • All elements in the circuit are in one loop

  • Every electron flow through every element

  • If one bulb burned out, the rest would also go out

media

44

Parallel circuits

  • There are several pathways or loops through the circuit

  • Electrons flow through just one of those pathways

  • If one bulb burned out, the rest of the bulbs would still glow

media

45

Ohm's Law

  • Georg Ohm found that conductors and most other devices have a constant resistance regardless of the applied voltage

  • Ohm's law says that resistance in a circuit is equal to voltage divided by current

  • Resistance = voltage / current

  • Units for resistance (Ohms); voltage (volts - V), Current is amps (A)

46

​Volts, Amps, and Resistance

​V = I * R

​Voltage = current multiplied by the resistance

​Series:

​R = R1+R2+R3+R4 ...

​Parallel:

​R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 ...

56

Voltage in Series Circuits

  • The voltage drops each time it passes through a resistor (like a lightbulb)

  • Total voltage equals the sum of all the voltage drops.

  • V total = V1 + V2 + V3 + V4 ...

  • Total Voltage also equals the voltages of all batteries placed in series

media

57

Voltage in Parallel

  • The voltage is the same no matter which branch of the parallel circuit you're on.

  • VTotal = V1 = V2 = V3 = ...

  • Like a platform with several water slides (paths down), no matter which one you choose, everyone ends back up at the bottom.

media

58

Current in Series

  • The same current is shared by the whole circuit, since there's only one path for the electrons to go, so all the electrons go that way

  • ITotal = I1 = I2 = I3 = I4 = I5 = ...

media

59

Current in Parallel

  • In parallel, the electrons will split and go down different paths, so only some will go down any given path

  • This decreases the current through each path.

  • Current will be faster where there's less resistance.

  • Electrons regroup at the end, though, so... IT = I1 + I2 + I3 + ...

media

60

Resistance in Series

  • The more resistors you add, the more resistance overall.

  • Adding more lightbulbs to this circuit would make each bulb dimmer and dimmer.

  • RTotal = R1 + R2 + R3 + R4 ...

media

61

Resistance in Parallel

  • Total resistance decreases the more resistors you add in parallel

  • It's like on Black Friday when the checkout line gets long and they add another checkout. There won't be as many people going through each line, but each person won't have the line holding them back as much.

  • 1/RT = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 ...
