Electric Current and Ohm's Law
11. BASIC DATA ABOUT ATOM .
Mass of electron = 9.11 x 10°"! kp
Mass of proton.
1.67 x 10°?” kp
Mass of neutron = mass of proton
. _t
Mass of electron = Jeep 55 of proton
Diameter of nucleus is of the order of 10° m
Diameter of orbits= 10° times dia of molecule
Diameter of clecton = 10° m
Charge on electron = - 1.602 x 10°” coulomb
Charge on proton = + 1.602 x 107? coulomb:
1.2. UNIT OF CURRENT
The charge on an electron is measured in terns of coulomb, The unit of current is coulomb per
second and is called ampere. This
Ly = coulomb _ Ag.
1 (Ampere ) = second = AT
One coulomb is equivalent to the charge of 6,28 x 10! electrons.
1 emu of curent= 3 x 10! esu of current.
13. ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE
Electromotive force or potential of a body is the work done in joules to bring a unit electric charge
from infinity to the body. It is expressed in terms of volts,
‘The potential difference is defined as that which causes current to flowin the closed circuit.
14, RESISTANCE
Resistance is the property of a substance due to which it opposes the flo v of electrons (ie,
electric current) through it, The unit of resistance is ohm (Q ),
Metals, acids and salt solutions are good conductors of electricity. Silver, copperand aluminium
offer least resistance to flow of current and are called very good conductor of electricity. The
electrons while flowing through the molecules or the atoms of the conductor, collide with other
atoms and electrons, thereby producing heat.
Some substances offer relatively greater difficulty or ixindrance to the passage of these clectias.
‘Such substances are called poor conductors or insulators of electricity. Some of the insulators are
slass, bakelite, mica, rubber, polyvinyl chloride (P.V.C.), dry wood, ete.

1.6.3, Effect of Temperature on Resistance.
Resistance of all materials is affected Dy-the
variations in temperature. The effect of temperature in
general is as follows :
(i) Resistance of most of the metallic conductors increases with rising temperature,
Gi) Resistance of non-conduciors or insulators usually decreases with rising temperature,
164. Temperature coefficient of resistance is defined as the increase in resistance per obm
original resistance per *C rise in temperature. Thus @ = fa
where Ro is resistance at O°C, R; is resistance at 1°C,
J is temperature rise in *C.
Usually a: is of the order of 10“ Q/0°C for most of the metals,
Incase of insulators and electrolytes, c is usually negative.
Temperature coefficient of carbon és negative.

1,7, DRIFT VELOCITY
‘The drift velocity ve of charge carriers is related to current by the equation
1=naevg
where, n = density of charge carriers in conductor,
@ = area of cross-section of conductor,
€ = charge on each carrier.
A large amount of enerey has to be supplied to pull an electron from inside to outside of the metal
surface, This cnergy is called work function. This energy is the characteristic of the metal.
1.8. SUPER-CONDUCTIVITY
As temperature of metallic conductor decreases, their resistivity decreases. In certain metallic
conductors as temperature decreases, the resistivity falls to zero at a certain temperature called
super-conducting temperature. It happens for mercury at 4 K and for tin at 3.72 K. This phenomenon is
called super-conductivity.
Resistivity of semiconductors decreases with increaso in temperature
Pr = po Fe,

The devices for which potential difference V Vs current) curve is not a straight line afe called
non-linear devices. They don not obey Ohm's law and resistance of these devices is a function of

2.2. PRIMARY CELLS
2.2.1, Simple voltaic cell. It consists of a glass

acid give up electrons as belo

The Zn** ions pass into the electrolyte and their
Concentration is very ligh near the zine electrode. As a
result of the above oxidajion reaction, zinc electrode is
left negatively charged and hence it acts as cathode. Fig. 2.
‘The dilute sulphuric acid and water dissociate into hydronium ions (represented 2
more commonly as H)O*) as given below: -

As a result of the reduction reaction taking place at copper electrode, copper is
charged and hence it acts as anode.

This defect can be removed by amalgamating the zinc rod with mercury.
Polarisation. The positive hydrogen ions travel towards copper rod and transfe
charge to copper. The hydrogen gas, then, escapes through the
solution in the form of bubbles. In doing so, a part of the
hydrogen gas gets deposited on the copper rod in the form of 4
a neutral layer. It, uien, stops the inflow of charge and the
e.m.f. of the cell falls.
This defect can be removed by brushing off the hydrogen
from time to time or by using a depolariser, which will
convert hydrogen gas into water.
2.2.2, Denial cell. Denial cell consists of, a copper
vessel containing copper sulphate solution. The copper vessel
itself acts as the positive clectrode. A porus pot containing

3.1L, INTRODUCTION
An aliemating current is that which flows first in one direction in a circuit, called the positive
Girecticn, the: the reverse or negative direction, repeating such cyclesof changes continuously. A graph
to abase ct time shows the waveform of the currentas.a succession of instantaneous values. In general
there will be peak values in both positive and negative half-cycles where the current is momentarily
Greatest. The time occupied by one complete cycle iscalled the period, Thenumber of cycles of complete
change repeated within one second is the frequency in cycles per second or hertz. (Hz). |
An alternating voltage produces an alternating current, The alternating voltage and alternating
ont May or may not be inphase. in tater case they are said to have-phase difference. The nerrt phase
Cifference is meaningful only in case the alte mating quantitiesandharmonically-varying function of the
time, The phase difference may be indicated by a ime interval between the zeros of the voltage and
Current waves at the beginning of a positive half cycle.

____ 33-1. Real power. In.ac circuits, reactance (inductive or capacitive) is invariably present resulting
inphase difference between voltage and currents. Under these circumstances voltage may have a high
value wher current is near zero of vice versa, Hence real power is less than the apparent power and is
given by
real power = apparent power x cos = Ef cos.
where is the angle between voltage and current, *
3.3.2, Reactive power. The power taken by pure reactance (inductive or capacitive) if a circuitis
called reactive power. Thus
Reactive power = Appzrent power x sin = Ef'sing.
The unit of reactive power is volt ampere reactive (VAR).

‘Apparent power .
The value of power factor (cos $) can never be morc than unity.
(d) When power fector is lagging, current lags the voltage which is possible in case of inductive
circuits. 5
(co) When power factor is leading, current leads the vollage, which occurs in capacitive circuits.
(0) Sometimes power factor is expressed us percentage, Thus 0.8 lagying power factor can ht

3.4. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF A.C. OVER D.C.
Advantages:
1, The generation of a.c. is found to be economical than that of d.c. ‘
2. The alternating voltages can be easily stepped up or stepped down by using a transformer.
3. Thealternating currents can be regulated by usingachokeccil withoutany significant wastage
of electrical energy. °
4, Thealtemating voltages can be transmitted to distant places with only a very small loss in.a.c,
power, .
5. Further, a.c. can be easily converted into d.c. by using rectifiers.
Disadvantages:
1, The a.c. supply is more suidical and dangerous than d.c. in terms of shock received due to
them,
2. The Sttematingcurentalways flows on the outer layer of the wire. Itis called skin effect. Due
to this, instead ofa single thick wire used for d.c., the specially designed wi a

When achange in flux linkages inéuces anemf in a wire or a coil, the polarity of ths induced emf

5.1.1. Ideal voltage source. Ideal voltage source is one which has th terminal voltzge which is
completly independent of the current through it, practically itis difficult to have an ideal voltage source
as it implies that infinite amount of energy can be drawn through it The ideal voluge source does,
however, furnish a reasonable approximation to several practical voltage sources. bilsstorage
battery, for example, has a terminal voltage of say, 12 volts that remains essential constant as long as
the current through it does not exceed a few amperes. Such a battery should have negligible internal
resistance.
