Galvanometer
• A galvanometer is the
main component in
analog meters for
measuring current and
voltage
• Digital meters are in
common use
– Digital meters operate
under different principles
Galvanometer
• A galvanometer consists of a coil of wire
mounted so that it is free to rotate on a pivot
in a magnetic field
• The field is provided by permanent magnets
• A torque acts on a current in the presence of a
magnetic field
Galvanometer
• The torque is proportional to the current
– The larger the current, the greater the torque
– The greater the torque, the larger the rotation of the coil before
the spring resists enough to stop the rotation
• The deflection of a needle attached to the coil is
proportional to the current
• Once calibrated, it can be used to measure currents or
voltages
Ammeter
• An ammeter is a device that measures current
• The ammeter must be connected in series
with the elements being measured
– The current must pass directly through the
ammeter
Ammeter in a Circuit
• The ammeter is connected in
series with the elements in
which the current is to be
measured
• Ideally, the ammeter should
have zero resistance so the
current being measured is
not altered
Ammeter from Galvanometer
• The galvanometer
typically has a resistance
of 60 W
• To minimize the
resistance, a shunt
resistance, Rp, is placed in
parallel with the
galvanometer
Ammeter
• The value of the shunt resistor must be much less
than the resistance of the galvanometer
– Remember, the equivalent resistance of resistors in parallel
will be less than the smallest resistance
• Most of the current will go through the shunt
resistance, this is necessary since the full scale
deflection of the galvanometer is on the order of
1 mA
Voltmeter
• A voltmeter is a device that measures
potential difference
• The voltmeter must be connected in parallel
with the elements being measured
– The voltage is the same in parallel
Voltmeter in a Circuit
• The voltmeter is connected in
parallel with the element in
which the potential difference
is to be measured
– Polarity must be observed
• Ideally, the voltmeter should
have infinite resistance so that
no current would pass through
it
– Corrections can be made to
account for the known, non-
infinite, resistance of the
voltmeter
Voltmeter
• The value of the added resistor must be much
greater than the resistance of the galvanometer
– Remember, the equivalent resistance of resistors in series
will be greater than the largest resistance
• Most of the current will go through the element
being measured, and the galvanometer will not
alter the voltage being measured
Inductance
Some Terminology
• Use emf and current when they are caused by
batteries or other sources
• Use induced emf and induced current when
they are caused by changing magnetic fields
• When dealing with problems in
electromagnetism, it is important to
distinguish between the two situations
Self-Inductance
• When the switch is
closed, the current does
not immediately reach its
maximum value
• Faraday’s law can be used
to describe the effect
Self-Inductance
• As the current increases with time, the
magnetic flux through the circuit loop due to
this current also increases with time
• This increasing flux creates an induced emf in
the circuit
Self-Inductance
• The direction of the induced emf is such that it
would cause an induced current in the loop
which would establish a magnetic field
opposing the change in the original magnetic
field
• The direction of the induced emf is opposite
the direction of the emf of the battery
• This results in a gradual increase in the current
to its final equilibrium value
Self-Inductance
• This effect is called self-inductance
– Because the changing flux through the circuit and
the resultant induced emf arise from the circuit
itself
• The emf εL is called a self-induced emf
Self-Inductance, Equations
• An induced emf is always proportional to the time rate of
change of the current
– The emf is proportional to the flux, which is proportional to the
field and the field is proportional to the current
dI
εL L
dt
• L is a constant of proportionality called the inductance of
the coil and it depends on the geometry of the coil and
other physical characteristics
Inductance of a Coil
• A closely spaced coil of N turns carrying
current I has an inductance of
NB εL
L
I d I dt
• The inductance is a measure of the opposition
to a change in current
Inductance of a Solenoid
• Assume a uniformly wound solenoid having N
turns and length ℓ
– Assume ℓ is much greater than the radius of the
solenoid
• The flux through each turn of area A is
N
B BA μo n I A μo IA
Inductance of a Solenoid
• The inductance is
N B μo N 2 A
L
I
• This shows that L depends on the geometry of
the object
RL Circuit, Introduction
• A circuit element that has a large self-
inductance is called an inductor
• The circuit symbol is
• We assume the self-inductance of the rest of
the circuit is negligible compared to the
inductor
– However, even without a coil, a circuit will have
some self-inductance
Effect of an Inductor in a Circuit
• The inductance results in a back emf
• Therefore, the inductor in a circuit opposes
changes in current in that circuit
– The inductor attempts to keep the current the
same way it was before the change occurred
– The inductor can cause the circuit to be “sluggish”
as it reacts to changes in the voltage
RL Circuit, Analysis
• An RL circuit contains an
inductor and a resistor
• Assume S2 is connected to a
• When switch S1 is closed (at
time t = 0), the current begins
to increase
• At the same time, a back emf
is induced in the inductor that
opposes the original increasing
current

circuit in the clockwise direction gives

RL Circuit, Analysis
• The inductor affects the current exponentially
• The current does not instantly increase to its
final equilibrium value
• If there is no inductor, the exponential term
goes to zero and the current would
instantaneously reach its maximum value as
expected
RL Circuit, Time Constant
• The expression for the current can also be
expressed in terms of the time constant, t, of
the circuit

– where t = L / R
• Physically, t is the time required for the
current to reach 63.2% of its maximum value
RL Circuit, Current-Time Graph
• The equilibrium value of
the current is e /R and is
reached as t
approaches infinity
• The current initially
increases very rapidly
• The current then
gradually approaches
the equilibrium value
RL Circuit, Current-Time Graph
• The time rate of change
of the current is a
maximum at t = 0
• It falls off exponentially as
t approaches infinity

Energy in a Magnetic Field
• In a circuit with an inductor, the battery must
supply more energy than in a circuit without
an inductor
• Part of the energy supplied by the battery
appears as internal energy in the resistor
• The remaining energy is stored in the
magnetic field of the inductor
Energy in a Magnetic Field
• Looking at this energy (in terms of rate)

– Ie is the rate at which energy is being supplied by
the battery
– I2R is the rate at which the energy is being
delivered to the resistor
– Therefore, LI (dI/dt) must be the rate at which the
energy is being stored in the magnetic field

Mutual Inductance
• The magnetic flux through the area enclosed
by a circuit often varies with time because of
time-varying currents in nearby circuits
• This process is known as mutual induction
because it depends on the interaction of two
circuits
Mutual Inductance
• The current in coil 1 sets
up a magnetic field
• Some of the magnetic
field lines pass through
coil 2
• Coil 1 has a current I1 and
N1 turns
• Coil 2 has N2 turns
Mutual Inductance
• The mutual inductance M12 of coil 2 with
respect to coil 1 is
N2 12
M12
I1
• Mutual inductance depends on the geometry
of both circuits and on their orientation with
respect to each other

by coil 1 in coil 2 is

• If the current is in coil 2, there is a mutual
inductance M21
• If current 2 varies with time, the emf induced

Mutual Inductance
• In mutual induction, the emf induced in one
coil is always proportional to the rate at which
the current in the other coil is changing
• The mutual inductance in one coil is equal to
the mutual inductance in the other coil
– M12 = M21 = M
• The induced emf’s can be expressed as
d I2 d I1

LC Circuits
• A capacitor is connected
to an inductor in an LC
circuit
• Assume the capacitor is
initially charged and then
the switch is closed
• Assume no resistance and
no energy losses to
radiation
Oscillations in an LC Circuit
• Under the previous conditions, the current in
the circuit and the charge on the capacitor
oscillate between maximum positive and
negative values
• With zero resistance, no energy is transformed
into internal energy
• Ideally, the oscillations in the circuit persist
indefinitely
– The idealizations are no resistance and no
radiation
Oscillations in an LC Circuit
• The capacitor is fully charged
– The energy U in the circuit is stored in the electric
field of the capacitor
– The energy is equal to Q2max / 2C
– The current in the circuit is zero
– No energy is stored in the inductor
• The switch is closed
Oscillations in an LC Circuit
• The current is equal to the rate at which the
charge changes on the capacitor
– As the capacitor discharges, the energy stored in
the electric field decreases
– Since there is now a current, some energy is
stored in the magnetic field of the inductor
– Energy is transferred from the electric field to the
magnetic field
Oscillations in an LC Circuit
• Eventually, the capacitor becomes fully
discharged
– It stores no energy
– All of the energy is stored in the magnetic field of
the inductor
– The current reaches its maximum value
• The current now decreases in magnitude,
recharging the capacitor with its plates having
opposite their initial polarity
Oscillations in an LC Circuit
• The capacitor becomes fully charged and the
cycle repeats
• The energy continues to oscillate between the
inductor and the capacitor
• The total energy stored in the LC circuit
remains constant in time and equals

RLC Circuit Compared to Damped
Oscillators
• When R is very large, the oscillations damp out very
rapidly
• There is a critical value of R above which no oscillations
occur
RC 4L / C
• If R = RC, the circuit is said to be critically damped
• When R > RC, the circuit is said to be overdamped
Damped RLC Circuit, Graph
• The maximum value of Q
decreases after each
oscillation
– R < RC
• This is analogous to the
amplitude of a damped
spring-mass system
Alternating Current Circuit
AC Circuits
• An AC circuit consists of a combination of
circuit elements and a power source
• The power source provides an alternative
voltage, Dv
• Notation Note
– Lower case symbols will indicate instantaneous
values
– Capital letters will indicate fixed values
AC Voltage
• The output of an AC power source is
sinusoidal and varies with time according to
the following equation:
– Δv = ΔVmax sin ωt
• Δv is the instantaneous voltage
• ΔVmax is the maximum output voltage of the source
– Also called the voltage amplitude
• ω is the angular frequency of the AC voltage
AC Voltage
• The angular frequency is
2π
ω 2π ƒ
T
– ƒ is the frequency of the
source
– T is the period of the source
• The voltage is positive during
one half of the cycle and
negative during the other half
Resistors in an AC Circuit
• Consider a circuit consisting
of an AC source and a
resistor
• The AC source is symbolized
by
• ΔvR = DVmax= Vmax sin wt
• ΔvR is the instantaneous
voltage across the resistor
Resistors in an AC Circuit

DvR DVmax
iR sin ωt I max sin ωt
R R
• The instantaneous voltage across the resistor
is also given as
ΔvR = Imax R sin ωt
Resistors in an AC Circuit
• The graph shows the current
through and the voltage
across the resistor
• The current and the voltage
reach their maximum values
at the same time
• The current and the voltage
are said to be in phase
Resistors in an AC Circuit
• For a sinusoidal applied voltage, the current in
a resistor is always in phase with the voltage
across the resistor
• The direction of the current has no effect on
the behavior of the resistor
• Resistors behave essentially the same way in
both DC and AC circuits
Phasor Diagram
• To simplify the analysis of
AC circuits, a graphical
constructor called a
phasor diagram can be
used
• A phasor is a vector
whose length is
proportional to the
maximum value of the
variable it represents
Phasors
• The vector rotates counterclockwise at an
angular speed equal to the angular frequency
associated with the variable
• The projection of the phasor onto the vertical
axis represents the instantaneous value of the
quantity it represents
rms Current and Voltage

• This shows that the instantaneous current iL in the
inductor and the instantaneous voltage ΔvL across the
inductor are out of phase by (p/2) rad = 90o
Phase Relationship of Inductors in
an AC Circuit
• The current is a maximum
when the voltage across the
inductor is zero
– The current is momentarily
not changing
• For a sinusoidal applied
voltage, the current in an
inductor always lags behind
the voltage across the inductor
by 90° (π/2)
Phasor Diagram for an Inductor
• The phasors are at 90o
with respect to each
other
• This represents the phase
difference between the
current and voltage
• Specifically, the current
lags behind the voltage by
90o
Inductive Reactance
• The factor ωL has the same units as resistance
and is related to current and voltage in the
same way as resistance
• Because ωL depends on the frequency, it
reacts differently, in terms of offering
resistance to current, for different frequencies
• The factor is the inductive reactance and is
given by:
– XL = ωL
Inductive Reactance
• Current can be expressed in terms of the
inductive reactance
DVmax DVrms
Imax or Irms
XL XL
• As the frequency increases, the inductive
reactance increases
– This is consistent with Faraday’s Law:
• The larger the rate of change of the current in the
inductor, the larger the back emf, giving an increase in
the reactance and a decrease in the current

Voltage Across a Capacitor
• The instantaneous voltage across the capacitor can be
written as ΔvC = ΔVmax sin ωt = Imax XC sin ωt
• As the frequency of the voltage source increases, the
capacitive reactance decreases and the maximum
current increases
• As the frequency approaches zero, XC approaches infinity
and the current approaches zero
– This would act like a DC voltage and the capacitor would act as
an open circuit

capacitor can be
combined in a circuit
• The current and the
voltage in the circuit vary
sinusoidally with time

• The instantaneous voltage would be given by
Δv = ΔVmax sin ωt
• The instantaneous current would be given by i

all points in the circuit has the same
amplitude and phase
