All of us agree the importance of electricity in our daily
lives.
But what is electricity?

Electric Charge
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
4/59
Electric Charge and Electrical Forces:
Electrons have a negative electrical charge.
Protons have a positive electrical charge.
These charges interact to create an electrical force.
Like charges produce repulsive forcesso they
repel each other (e.g. electron and electron or proton
and proton repel each other).
Unlike charges produce attractive forcesso they
attract each other (e.g. electron and proton attract
each other).

A very highly simplified model of an atom has most of the
mass in a small, dense center called the nucleus. The nucleus
has positively charged protons and neutral neutrons.
Negatively charged electrons move around the nucleus at
much greater distance. Ordinary atoms are neutral because
there is a balance between the number of positively
charged protons and negatively charged electrons.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
6/59
Electrostatic Charge:
Electrons move from atom to atom to create
ions.
positively charge ions result from the loss of
electrons and are called cations.
Negatively charge ions result from the gain
of electrons and are called anions.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture

(A) A neutral atom has
no net charge because
the numbers of electrons
and protons are balanced.
(B) Removing an electron
produces a net positive
charge; the charged atom
is called a positive ion
(cation).
(C) The addition of anelectron produces a net
negative charge and a
negative ion (anion).

Arbitrary numbers
of protons (+) and
electrons (-) on acomb and in hair
(A) before and
(B) after combing.
Combing transferselectrons from the
hair to the comb by
friction, resulting
in a negative
charge on the comb
and a positive
charge on the hair.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
9/59
The charge on an ion is called an electrostatic
charge.
An object becomes electrostatically charged by
Friction,which transfers electrons between
two objects in contact,
Contact with a charged body which results
in the transfer of electrons,
Induction which produces a charge
redistribution of electrons in a material.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
10/59
Charging by induction: The comb has become charged by
friction, acquiring an excess of electrons. The paper (A) normally
has a random distribution of (+) and (-) charges.(B) When the charged comb is held close to the paper, there is a
reorientation of charges because of the repulsion of the charges.
This leaves a net positive charge on the side close to the comb, and
since unlike charges attract, the paper is attracted to the comb.

Electrical Conductors and Insulators:
Electrical conductors are materials that can move
electrons easily.
Good conductors include metals. Copper is the
best electrical conductor. Electrical nonconductors (insulators) are materials
that do not move electrons easily.
Examples are wood, rubber etc.
Semiconductors are materials that sometimes behave
as conductors and sometimes behave as insulators.
Examples are silicon, arsenic, germanium.

Measuring Electrical Charges:
The fundamental charge is the electrical charge on an
electron and has a magnitude of1.6021892 X 10-19 C(Note that the electrical charge is measured incoulombs).
A coulomb is the charge resulting from the transfer of6.24 x 1018 of the charge carried by an electron.
The magnitude of an electrical charge (q) is dependent
upon how many electrons (n) have been moved to it oraway from it.Mathematically,
q = n e
where e is the fundamental charge.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture

Coulombs law:
Electrical force is proportional to the product of theelectrical charge and inversely proportional to the
square of the distance. This is known as Coulombs law.Mathematically,

F is the force,
kis a constant and has the value of9.00 x 109

Force Fields:
The condition of space around an object is changed bythe presence of an electrical charge.
The electrical charge produces a force field, that is
called an electrical field since it is produced by electrical
charge.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
15/59
A map of the electrical field can be made by bringing apositive test charge into an electrical field.
When brought near a negative charge the test chargeis attracted to the unlike charge and when broughtneara positive charge the test charge is repelled.
You can draw vector arrows to indicate the directionof the electrical field.
This is represented by drawing lines of force orelectrical field lines,
These lines are closer together when the field isstronger and farther apart when it is weaker.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture

A positive test
charge is used byconvention to
identify the
properties of an
electric field. The
vector arrow points
in the direction of
the force that thetest charge would
experience.

Electrical Potential:
An electrical charge has an electrical field that surrounds
it.
In order to move a second charge through this field work
must be done.
Bringing a like charge particle into this field will require
work since like charges repel each other and bringing anopposite charged particle into the field will require work
to keep the charges separated.
In both of these cases the electrical potential is
changed.

The potential difference (PD) that is created by doing1.00 joule of work in moving 1.00 coulomb of charge isdefined as 1.00 volt.
A volt is a measure of the potential differencebetween two points,
electric potential = work done,
chargeOr, PD=W
Q
The voltage of an electrical charge is the energy
transfer per coulomb.The energy transfer can be measured by the work that is
done to move the charge or by the work that the chargecan do because of the position of the field.

Electric Current
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
22/59
Introduction:
Electric current means a flow of charge in the same way
that a water current flows.
It is the charge that flows, and the current is defined as
the flow of the charge.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
23/59
The Electric Circuit:
An electrical circuit contains some device that acts
as a source of energy as it gives charges a higherpotential against an electrical field.
The charges do work as they flow through the circuit to a lower
potential.
The charges flow through connecting wires to make a
continuous path.
A switch is a means of interrupting or completing the circuit.
The source of the electrical potential is the voltage
source.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
24/59
A simple electric circuit has a voltage source (such as agenerator or battery) that maintains the electrical potential,
some device (such as a lamp or motor ) where work is done by
the potential, and continuous pathways for the current to
follow.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
25/59
Voltageis a measure of the potential difference between
two places in a circuit.
Voltage is measured in joules/coloumb.
The rate at which an electrical current (I) flows is the
charge (q) that moves through a cross section of a
conductor in a give unit of time (t),
I = q/t.
the units of current are coulombs/second.
A coulomb/second is an ampere (amp).
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
26/59
A simple electric circuit carrying a current of 1.00
coulomb per second through a cross section of a
conductor has a current of 1.00 amp.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
27/59
The Nature of Current:
Conventional current describes current as positive
charges that flow from the positive to the negativeterminal of a battery.
The electron current description is the opposite of the
conventional current.
The electron current describes current as a drift of
negative charges that flow from the negative to thepositive terminal of a battery.
It is actually the electron current that moves charges.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
28/59
A conventional current describes positive charges moving
from the positive terminal (+) to the negative terminal (-).
An electron current describes negative charges (-) moving
from the negative terminal (-) to the positive terminal (+).
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
29/59
The current that occurs when there is a voltage depends
on:
The number of electrons that are moved through
the unit volume of the conducting material.
The fundamental charge on each electron.
The drift velocity which depends on the properties of
the conducting material and the temperature.
The cross-sectional area of the conducting wire.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
30/59
It is the electron field, and not the electrons, which doesthe work.
It is the electric field that accelerates electrons that
are already in the conducting material.
It is important to understand that:
An electric potential difference establishes, atnearly the speed of light, an electric fieldthroughout a circuit.
The field causes a net motion that constitutes a flowof charge.
The average velocity of the electrons moving as acurrent is very slow, even thought he electric fieldthat moves them travels with a speed close to thespeed of light.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
31/59
What is the nature of the electric current carried by theseconducting lines?It is an electric field that moves at near the speed of light. The
field causes a net motion of electrons that constitutes a flow of
charge, a current.
(A) A metal conductor
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
32/59
(A) A metal conductorwithout a current has
immovable positive ions
surrounded by a swarmof randomly moving
electrons.
(B) An electric fieldcauses the electrons to
shift positions, creating a
separation charge as the
electrons move with azigzag motion from
collisions with stationary
positive ions and other
electrons.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
33/59
Electrical Resistance:
Electrical resistance is the resistance to movement of
electrons being accelerated with an energy loss.
Materials have the property of reducing a current and that
is electrical resistance (R).
Resistance is a ratio between the potential difference (V)
between two points and the resulting current (I).
R = V/I
The ratio of volts/amp is called an ohm ().
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
34/59
The relationship between voltage, current, and
resistance is:
V =I R
This is known as Ohms Law.
The magnitude of the electrical resistance of a
conductor depends on four variables:
The length of the conductor.
The cross-sectional area of the conductor. The material the conductor is made of.
The temperature of the conductor.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
35/59
The four factors that influence the resistance of anelectrical conductor are the length of the conductor, the
cross-sectional area of the conductor, the material the
conductor is made of, and the temperature of the
conductor.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
36/59
Electrical Power and Electrical Work:
All electrical circuits have three parts in common.
A voltage source.
An electrical device
Conducting wires.
The work done (W) by a voltage sourceis equal to the work
done by the electrical field in an electrical device,Work = Power x Time.
The electrical potential is measured injoules/coulomb and a
quantity ofcharge is measured in coulombs, so the electrical
work is measure in joules. Ajoule/second is a unit of power called the watt.
Power = current x potential
Or, P = I V

Magnetism
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture
40/59
All of us are familiar with magnets. In a magnet we
have magnetic polesthe north and the south pole.
A North seeking pole is called the North Pole.
A South seeking pole is called the South Pole.
Like magnetic poles repel and unlike magnetic polesattract.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture

Every magnet has ends, or poles, about which the
magnetic properties seem to be concentrated. As this
photo shows, more iron filings are attracted to the poles,
revealing their location.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture

Magnetic Fields:
A magnet that is moved in space near a second magnetexperiences a magnetic field.
A magnetic field can be represented by field lines.
The strength of the magnetic field isgreaterwhere the
lines are closer togetherandweakerwhere they are
farther apart.

These lines are a map of the magnetic field around a bar
magnet. The needle of a magnetic compass will follow the
lines, with the north end showing the direction of the
field.

The Source of Magnetic Fields:
Permanent Magnets:
Moving electrons produce magnetic fields.
In most materials these magnetic fields cancel oneanother and neutralize the overall magnetic effect.
In other materials such as iron, cobalt, and nickel, theatoms behave as tiny magnets because of certain
orientations of the electrons inside the atom.
These atoms are grouped in a tiny region called themagnetic domain.

OurEarth is a big magnet.
The Earths magnetic field is thought to originate withmoving charges.
The core is probably composed of iron and nickel,
which flows as the Earth rotates, creating electricalcurrents that result in the Earths magnetic field.

The earth's magnetic field.Note that the magnetic north
pole and the geographicNorth Pole are not in the
same place.
Note also that the magnetic
north pole acts as if the southpole of a huge bar magnet
were inside the earth. You
know that it must be a
magnetic south pole since thenorth end of a magnetic
compass is attracted to it and
opposite poles attract.
7/29/2019 Electricity Lecture

A bar magnet cut into halves always makes new, completemagnets with both a north and a south pole. The poles
always come in pairs. You can not separate a pair into
single poles.

(A) In a piece of iron, the magnetic domains have random
arrangement that cancels any overall magnetic effect (not
magnetic).(B) When an external magnetic field is applied to the iron, the
magnetic domains are realigned, and those parallel to the field
grow in size at the expense of the other domains, and the iron
becomes magnetized.
