Potential difference between two points in a circuit is defined as the amount of work done, W, when one coulomb of charge passes from one point to the other point. Ohm's Law states that the current that passes through an ohmic conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference applied across it. Resistance is a term that describes the opposition experienced by the electrons as they flow in a conductor.

BETWEEN ELECTRIC CURRENT AND POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE Potential difference, V
• A gravitational analogy can be
used to explain electric potential difference. • The movements that require work done by an external force would turn the this work into potential energy. • For example, the potential energy of water at top of a waterfall is greater than at the bottom. Potential difference
• The potential difference, V,
between two points in a circuit is defined as the amount of work done, W, when one coulomb of charge passes from one point to the other point.
• The SI unit for potential
difference is Volt, V Example:
If a charge of 5.0 C flows through a
wire and the amount of electrical energy converted into heat is 2.5 J, calculate the potential difference across the ends of the wire. Solution: Charge, Q = 5.0 C Energy, E = 2.5 J Potential difference, V = E/Q V = 2.5J/5.0 V V = 0.5 V Current and potential difference • Example of electric circuit. • In the electric circuit, the greater the potential difference or voltage, the greater the current flow • In other words, when the potential difference between two points in circuit increases, the current flowing through it increases and vice versa Ohm’s Law
• The potential difference across a
conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it when the temperature of the conductor is kept constant VαI or V/I = R • This relationship is known as Ohm’s Law • The constant R is the resistance of the conductor. Ohm’s Law
Ohm’s law states that the current
that passes through an ohmic conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference applied across it if the temperature and other physical conditions are constant An ohmic conductor is one which obey Ohm’s Law, while conductor which does not obey Ohm’s law is known as a non-ohmic conductor Resistance, R
• What is the resistance?
Resistance is a term that describes the opposition experienced by the electrons as they flow in a conductor. Measured in the SI unit called ohm, Ω. The resistance, of an ohmic conductor is the ratio of the potential difference, V to the current, I Example:
• A potential difference of 3.0 V applied across a
resistor of resistance R drives current of 2.0 A through it. Calculate R • Solution: V = 3.0 V , I = 2.0 A R = V/I R = 3.0/2.0 R = 1.5Ω Resistance, R
• Resistance can be good or bad
Good Bad •Resistance allow us to •Resistance use electricity for heat causes some of and light. the electrical energy to turn •The heating coil of an into heat, so electrics kettle produces some electrical heat because it has energy is lost resistance along the way •In the light bulb, the current flowing through a resistance filament Factors that affect the resistance • Length • Cross-sectional area • Types of material • Temperature of a conductor Superconductors
• The resistance in many electrical
machines such as electric motors, generators and transformers is large, producing vast amounts of heat during its operation • The resistance of conductors will decrease when the temperature of the metal drops. • There are some metals and compounds whose resistances fall to zero below a certain critical temperature, Tc. • When their resistance become zero, these materials are called • The graph shows the abrupt disappearance of resistance at critical temperature, Tc. • Many more superconductors have been found but all these materials still require cooling by expensive cooling agents such as liquid helium Application of superconductors
• Superconductors are very useful
because they can make electric cars more feasible and computers much faster. • Superconducting magnets which would make things like magnetic levitation (MAGLEV) trains and medical imaging machines such as the magnetic imaging machines such as the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner more economical Question 1.
