HOOK/RECALL
Because of the positive and negative charges on the battery terminals, an electric
potential difference exists between them. The difference in the potential causes
the charges to flow.

2. CURRENT
The electric field exerts a force on the free electrons in the wire, and they
respond by moving. The figure below shows charges moving inside a wire and
crossing an imaginary surface that is perpendicular to their motion.
The current is the amount of charge crossing on the imaginary surface per unit of
time or I=q/t
q= charge ( coulombs, C)
t= time (seconds,s)
b. RESISTANCE
-depends on both the resistivity and the geometry of the material
-is directly proportional to wire’s length and inversely proportional to
its cross-sectional area
where:
R-resistance (ohms, Ω)
ρ-resistivity (ohmmeter,Ωm)
L- length of wire (meters, m)
A- cross-sectional area of wire (meter squared, m2)
A=πr2

4. OHM’S LAW
- The ratio V/I is a constant, where V is the voltage applied across a piece
of material and I is the current through the material

Examples:
A. CURRENT
1. A steady current of 2.5 A exists in a wire for 4.0 min.
a) How much total charge passes by a given point in the circuit
during those 4.0 min?
PSHS-CVC
Grade 10/Phy 2
Given: I=2.5 A
t=4.0 min=240 seconds
Find: A) q B) and no. of electrons
A) I=q/t isolate q
q=I (t)
= 2.5 C/s ( 240s )
=600 C
B) N=q/e
= 600 C/ 1.6 x10-19C
=3.75 x 10 21 electrons
2. A battery pack of pocket calculator has a voltage of 3V and
delivers a current of 0.17 milliamperes. In one hour of operation,
A) how much charge flows in the circuit and
B) how much energy does the battery deliver to the circuit?
Given:
I=0.17 mA= 0.17 x 10-3 A or 1.7 x10-4 A
t= 1hr=3600 seconds
V=3 V
Find: q and energy U
A.) I=q/t
q=I (t)
= 1.7 x10-4 C/s (3600s)
=0.612 C
B) V=U/qo
U=Vqo
= 3 J/C (0.612 C)
=1.836 J
B. RESISTANCE
For the following problems please refer to the table of Resistivities of
Various Materials
d=2r
=2 (2.36x10-4 m)
=4.72 x10-4 m
C. OHM’S LAW
1. If a toaster produces 12 ohms of resistance in a 120-volt circuit,
what is the amount of current in the circuit?
Given: R=12 Ω
V=120 V
Find : I
V=IR
I= V/R
=120/12

2. A small flashlight bulb draws 300 mA from its 1.5-V battery.
(a) What is the resistance of the bulb?
(b) If the battery becomes weak and the voltage drops to 1.2 V,
how would the current change?
Given: I=300mA= 0.3 A
V=1.5 V
Find: R, I when V drops to 1.2V
A) V=IR
R= V/I
=1.5/0.3
=5 Ω
B) I=V/R
= 1.2/5
=0.24 A
0.24 A/0.3A=4/5
*The current will decrease 4/5 its original value
