OHM’S LAW By: Mr. Augosto M. Directo
Voltage, Current and Resistance Voltage is the amount of energy per charge move electrons in one point to another in a circuit. It is measured in volts (v)  Current is the rate of charge flow and it is measured in amperes (A). Its unit is (I). Resistance is the opposition of current and it is measured in ohms (W)
DC Current vs. AC Current  The current from a battery is always in the same direction.  One end of the battery is positive and the other end is negative.  The direction of current flows from positive to negative.  This is called direct current, or DC.
DC Current vs. AC Current  If voltage alternates, so does current. When the voltage is positive, the current in the circuit is clockwise. When the voltage is negative the current is the opposite direction.  This type of current is called alternating current, or AC.
Series and Parallel Circuit In a series circuit , the current through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the components is the sum of the voltages across each component. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component.
Series Vs. Parallel Series Circuits ,[object Object]
Current is the same at all points in a series circuit	Parallel Circuits In contrast, in a parallel circuit, there are multiple paths for current flow. Different paths may contain different current flow.  This is also based on Ohms Law Total resistance will be less than the smallest resistor
In Series circuit; the total current is equal Rtotal = R1 + R2 + R3 Vtotal = V1+ V2+ V3  In Parallel Circuit; the total voltage is equal 1 =   1 +1    +	  1   +  1   Rtotal	R1 R2	R3Rn Itotal = I1+ I2+ I3
By Analogy: Series Vs Parallel I E R2 R1 R1 I1 E R2 I2 R3 I3
Advantages of parallel circuits Parallel circuits have two big advantages over series circuits: 	1. Each device in the circuit sees the full battery voltage. 	2. Each device in the circuit may be turned off independently without stopping the current flowing to other devices in the circuit.
Ohms Law States that the voltage is directly proportional to the current in the circuit. It is discovered by the German Physicist George Simon Ohm. Ohm’s law is:     V = IR ,  I = V/R,  R= V/I
Unit Modifiers for Reference Smaller Deci = 	10-1 Centi = 	10-2 Milli = 	10-3m Micro = 	10-6 Nano = 	10-9 Pico = 	10-12p Fento = 	10-15 Larger Kilo = 103k Mega = 106 Giga = 109 Tera = 1015
Series Circuit Analysis Example #1 A 4v battery is placed in a series circuit with a 2 resistor. What is the total current that will flow through the circuit? 2 4v I = ?
Solution Given: V = 4v R = 2 I = ? I = V/R   = 4v/2 I = 2A
Example#2 A 110v supplies a load with a resistance of 3,5, and 7 respectively, find the current in the circuit? 3 5 I = ? 110v 7
Solution Given: V= 110 v			 R1 = 3 R2 = 5 R3 = 7 I = ? Rtotal = R1 + R2 + R3	I = V/R          = 3 + 5 + 7		   = 110/12       = 12		   = 9.17 A
Parallel Circuit Analysis Example # 3  A 220v is connected in parallel with the load. It has a resistance of 5ohms and 10ohms. Find the Total current and the  I1and the I2 10 5 220v
Solution Given: V=220v R1 = 5 R2 = 10 I1  = V/ R1		 I2 = V/ R2     = 220 / 5		     = 220 / 10     = 44 A			     = 22 A RT  = R1R2 / R1 + R2IT  = V / RT   = (5 x 10) / 15		        = 220/3.33   = 3.33		        = 66.06A
Example #4 Find the total voltage and the total resistance of the load if the total current is 15A and it has a R1  of 6 ohms and R2  of 2 ohms. 6 V=? 2 IT =15
Solution Given: R1 = 6 R2 = 2  IT =15 A RT  = R1 R2 / R1 + R2VT= IT/ RT    = (6 x 2) / 8		        = 15 A x 1.5     = 1.5 		        = 22.5 v I1  = V/ R1		 I2 = V/ R2     = 22.5 / 6		     = 22.5 / 2      = 3.75 A= 11.25 A
Electric Power, AC, and DC Electricity The watt (W) is a unit of power.  Power is the rate at which energy moves or is used. Since energy is measured in joules, power is measured in joules per second.  One joule per second is equal to one watt.
Power in electric circuits One watt is a pretty small amount of power.  In everyday use, larger units are more convenient to use.  A kilowatt (kW) is equal to 1,000 watts. The other common unit of power often seen on electric motors is the horsepower. One horsepower is 746 watts.
Formula of Power  Power (watts) Voltage (volts) P = VI Current (amps
Example # 5 A light bulb with a resistance of 1.5Ω is connected to a 1.5-volt battery in the circuit shown at right.  Calculate the power used by the light bulb.
Solution Given: V = 1.5v R = 3 I =V / R			P = V I   = 1.5 / 3			    = 1.5 x 0.5   = 0.5 A 			    = 0.75 watts
Paying for electricity Electric companies charge for the number of kilowatt-hours used during a set period of time, often a month. One kilowatt-hour (kWh) means that a kilowatt of power has been used for one hour.  Since power multiplied by time is energy, a kilowatt-hour is a unit of energy. One kilowatt-hour is 3.6 x 106 joules.

  • 21. Electric Power, AC, and DC Electricity The watt (W) is a unit of power. Power is the rate at which energy moves or is used. Since energy is measured in joules, power is measured in joules per second. One joule per second is equal to one watt.
  • 22. Power in electric circuits One watt is a pretty small amount of power. In everyday use, larger units are more convenient to use. A kilowatt (kW) is equal to 1,000 watts. The other common unit of power often seen on electric motors is the horsepower. One horsepower is 746 watts.
  • 23. Formula of Power Power (watts) Voltage (volts) P = VI Current (amps
  • 24. Example # 5 A light bulb with a resistance of 1.5Ω is connected to a 1.5-volt battery in the circuit shown at right. Calculate the power used by the light bulb.
  • 25. Solution Given: V = 1.5v R = 3 I =V / R P = V I = 1.5 / 3 = 1.5 x 0.5 = 0.5 A = 0.75 watts
  • 26. Paying for electricity Electric companies charge for the number of kilowatt-hours used during a set period of time, often a month. One kilowatt-hour (kWh) means that a kilowatt of power has been used for one hour. Since power multiplied by time is energy, a kilowatt-hour is a unit of energy. One kilowatt-hour is 3.6 x 106 joules.
