Electricity -- The Basics!

Interactions of Charge Centers

Basic Electrical Relationships Coulomb -- a unit of charge 1 coulomb = 6.2×10 18 elementary charges Coulomb’s Law The electrical analog of velocity is current: The electrical analog of force is electromotive force (E): (force in N)

Electrical Potential Potential to do work is always measured relative to some reference state. In electricity, zero potential (ground) can be viewed as an electrically neutral location that is an infinite sink for charge (next slide).

Movement of Charges A good analogy is the expansion of gases into larger containers -- although the proximate cause of the expansion is quite different!

Resistance Resistance is that which limits current flow (for a given potential) and consumes electrical energy (resistances convert electrical energy to other forms such as heat). R (resistance) is measured in ohms (  ; G (conductance, its inverse) is measured in siemens (S).

A Purely Resistive Circuit Which way does the current flow?

Fluid Analog to Resistance, Current and Potential "ResistanceHydraulicAnalogy" by Sbyrnes321 - Own work. Licensed under CC0 via Commons - vg#/media/File:ResistanceHydraulicAnalogy.svg Pressure difference is potential difference Flow is like current

Series and Parallel Resistive Circuits Can you draw an analogy to these circuits using water flow?

Capacitance Capacitance is the ability to store electrical charge; the larger the capacitance, the greater that ability. Capacitors (ideal ones) do not consume energy – whatever energy they store can be retrieved.

Capacitance Energy storage -- the electrical analog of elasticity

A Purely Capacitive Circuit

Equilibrium in a capacitive circuit

RC Circuits RC (resistive-capacitive) circuits both store and consume energy. These will be important in our discussions of membrane potentials, especially ones that vary and move.

An RC Circuit

The Time Constant  A measure of the time needed to charge an RC circuit.  = RC If t =  then 1-(1/e) = 1-(1/2.7) = 1 – 0.37 = 0.63

The Effect of the Time Constant
