Electrical Current
€
I = qt
Current is the rate of flow of charge through a conductor.

current =chargetime
SIunits
CURRENT EFFECT
0.0001 A threshold of feeling
0.001 A mild shock felt
0.005 A shock is painful
0.015 A muscle control is lost
0.100 A death can occur
Current flow is defined in the direction of positive charge; since electrons flow in wires, current is opposite the flow of electrons.
Small microamp (μA) currents flow through your body, but larger amounts of current are dangerous, even deadly.

Electrical Current
Moving electrons collide with vibrating atoms, so they zigzag in a random path, with a slow drift velocity.
Potential difference creates an electric field which induces charge to flow in a circuit.
The electric field travels at near the speed of light, but the drift velocity is less than a millimeter per second! Electrons do not race around a circuit.

Electrons flow in solid wire circuits. Positive and negative ions flow in batteries (wet and dry cells), and in gas-filled light bulbs.

Electrical ResistanceResistance is a measurement of a material’s ability to resist the flow of electrical charge.
Resistivity depends on the nature of a material. Conductors have low resistivity and insulators have high resistivity.

Resistance depends on the material’s type, length, cross- section, and temperature.

Ohm’s Law
When a device shows a linear relationship between voltage and current, it is said to be “ohmic”

Kirchhoff’s RulesRule #1 - The Loop Rule
Rule #2 - The Junction Rule
The sum of the potential differences (voltages) around any closed loop in a circuit must be zero
The current entering a junction in a circuit equals the current leaving the junction

Series CircuitsA series circuit has only one pathway around the circuit
€
I = I1 = I2 = I3
€
Req = R1 +R2 +R3
Rule # 1 means that the voltage across all resistors in series must add up to the source voltage
Rule # 2 means that the current through all resistors in series must equal the source current
Combine the two equations:ΔVI

Holiday LightsSeries wiring was often used for Christmas tree lights from 1900-1940
To avoid “one out, all out” modern miniature bulbs use a “jumper” with insulation around it. When the bulb burns out, the jumper wire now has 120 volts across it, so the insulation burns off. The circuit is now complete.
Most sets had 8 bulbs sharing 120 volts, so 15 volts each. But, when one bulb burns out they all go out!
Most are 50 bulbs in a series “set”, then a few sets in parallel (up to 300), and use little power.
Miniature lights became popular by the 1970s
Parallel wiring became popular in the 50s and 60sEach bulb has 120 volts and consumes ~10 watts (like a night light). When one bulb burns out, the rest stay on, but they use a lot of power - usually 250 watts per strand - and they get hot!
Light emitting diodes (LED) use very little power, typically under 5 watts for 70 lights!
Now LED lights are popular and inexpensive

Applied CircuitsParallel circuits are used for wiring 120 volt outlets.• All devices plugged in get 120 volts• Each is independent of the others• As more devices are used, the total
resistance decreases and total current increases.
• Most circuits are limited to 20 amps.
