4. EMF and Terminal Potential Difference Open Circuit E = 1.5 V The emf E is the open-circuit potential difference. The terminal voltage V T for closed circuit is reduced due to internal resistance r inside source. Closed Circuit V T = 1.45 V r Applying Ohm’s law to battery r, gives: V T = E - Ir

5. Finding Current in Simple Circuit Ohm’s law: Current I is the ratio of emf E to total resistance R + r. Cross multiplying gives: IR + Ir = E ; V T = IR V T = E - Ir r R I + Battery r E - VTVT V T = IR

6. Example 2. A 3-V battery has an internal resistance of 0.5  and is connected to a load resistance of 4 . What current is delivered and what is the terminal potential difference V T ? I = 0.667 A V T = E – Ir V T = 3 V – (0.667 A)(0.5  ) V T = 2.67 V r = 0.5  R = 4  I + - E = 3 V r R

7. Power in Circuits Recall that the definition of power is work or energy per unit of time. The following apply: The first of these is normally associated with the power gains and losses through emf’s; the latter two are more often associated with external loads.

8. Power, Potential, and EMF I + Battery r E - VTVT R Consider simple circuit: V T = E - Ir Terminal Voltage Multiply each term by I: V T I = E I - I 2 r The power delivered to the external circuit is equal to the power developed in the emf less the power lost through internal resistance.

9. Example 3. The 3-V battery in Ex. 2 had an internal resistance of 0.5  and a load resistance of 4 . Discuss the power used in the circuit. r = 0.5  R = 4  I + - E = 3 V r R I = 0.667 A V T = 2.67 V From Ex. 2, we found: Power developed in emf: E I = (3.0 V)(0.667 A) = 2.0 W Power lost in internal r: I 2 r = (0.667 A) 2 (0.5  ) = 0.222 W

10. Example 3 (Cont.). Discuss the power used in the simple circuit below. r = 0.5  R = 4  I + - E = 3 V r R Power in emf: E I = 2.00 W Power loss: I 2 r = 0.222 W Power lost in external load R: I 2 R = (0.667) 2 (4  ) = 1.78 W V T I = (2.67)(0.667 A) = 1.78 W This power can also be found using V T = 2.67 V Actual power used externally.

11. Example 3 (Cont.). Discuss the power used in the simple circuit below. r = 0.5  R = 4  I + - E = 3 V r R Power in emf: E I = 2.00 W Power loss in internal r: I 2 r = 0.222 W V T I = E I - I 2 r 1.78 W = 2.00 W – 0.222 W Power lost in external load R: I 2 R = V T I = 1.78 W

12. A Discharging EMF When a battery is discharging, there is a GAIN in energy E as chemical energy is converted to electrical energy. At the same time, energy is LOST through internal resistance Ir. Discharging: V BA = E - Ir 12 V - (2 A)(1  ) = 12 V - 2 V = 10 V r + - E I = 2 A Discharging 12 V, 1  AB If V B = 20 V, then V A = 30 V; Net Gain = 10 V GAINLOSS

13. Charging: Reversing Flow Through EMF When a battery is charged (current against normal output), energy is lost through chemical changes E and also through internal resistance Ir. Charging: V AB = E + Ir -12 V - (2 A)(1  ) = -12 V - 2 V = -14 V r + - E I = 2 A Charging 12 V, 1  AB If V A = 20 V, then V B = 6.0 V; Net Loss = 14 V LOSSLOSS

14. Power Gain for Discharging EMF When a battery is discharging, there is a GAIN in power E I as chemical energy is converted to electrical energy. At the same time, power is LOST through internal resistance I 2 r. Net Power Gain: V BA I = E I- I 2 r (12 V)(2 A) - (2 A) 2 (1  ) = 24 W - 4 W = 20 W r + - E I = 2 A Discharging 12 V, 1  AB Recall that electric power is either VI or I 2 R

15. Power Lost on Charging a Battery When a battery is charged (current against normal output), power is lost through chemical changes E I and through internal resistance Ir 2. Net Power Lost= E I + I 2 r (12 V)(2 A) + (2 A) 2 (1  ) = 24 W + 4 W = 24 W r + - E I = 2 A Charging 12 V, 1  AB Recall that electric power is either VI or I 2 R

16. Example 4: A 24-V generator is used to charge a 12-V battery. For the generator, r 1 = 0.4  and for the battery r 2 = 0.6 . The load resistance is 5 . r2r2r2r2 + - E2E2 I r1r1r1r1 + - E1E1 I R 24 V 12 V.4 .6  5  First find current I: Circuit current: I = 2.00 A What is the terminal voltage V G across the generator? V T = E – Ir = 24 V – (2 A)(0.4  ) V G = 23.2 V

17. Example 4: Find the terminal voltage V B across the battery. r2r2r2r2 + - E2E2 I r1r1r1r1 + - E1E1 I R 24 V 12 V.4 .6  5  Circuit current: I = 2.00 A V B = E + Ir = 12 V + (2 A)(0.4  ) Terminal V B = 13.6 V Note: The terminal voltage across a device in which the current is reversed is greater than its emf. For a discharging device, the terminal voltage is less than the emf because of internal resistance.

18. Ammeter Voltmeter Rheostat Source of EMF Rheostat A Ammeters and Voltmeters V Emf - +

19. The Ammeter An ammeter is an instrument used to measure currents. It is always connected in series and its resistance must be small (negligible change in I). Digital read- out indicates current in A A E - + rgrgrgrg Ammeter has Internal r g The ammeter draws just enough current I g to operate the meter; V g = I g r g

20. Galvanometer: A Simple Ammeter 0 10 20 10 20 NS The galvanometer uses torque created by small currents as a means to indicate electric current. A current I g causes the needle to deflect left or right. Its resistance is R g. The sensitivity is determined by the current required for deflection. (Units are in Amps/div.) Examples: 5 A/div; 4 mA/div.

21. Example 5. If 0.05 A causes full-scale deflection for the galvanometer below, what is its sensitivity? 0 10 20 10 20 NS Assume R g = 0.6  and that a current causes the pointer to move to “10.” What is the voltage drop across the galvanometer? V g = (25 mA)(0.6  V g = 15 mV

22. Operation of an Ammeter The galvanometer is often the working element of both ammeters and voltmeters. A shunt resistance in parallel with the galvanometer allows most of the current I to by- pass the meter. The whole device must be connected in series with the main circuit. I = I s + I g RgRgRgRgI RsRsRsRs IsIsIsIs IgIgIgIg The current I g is negligible and only enough to operate the galvanometer. [ I s >> I g ]

23. Junction rule at A: I = I g + I s Voltage rule for Ammeter: 0 = I g R g – I s R s ; I s R s = I g R g Or I s = I - I g (I – I g )R s = I g R g Shunt Resistance Current I g causes full-scale deflection of ammeter of resistance R g. What R s is needed to read current I from battery V B ? VBVB - + Ammeter R IgIgIgIg I = 10 A RsRsRsRs A RgRgRgRg IsIsIsIs

24. Example 6. An ammeter has an internal resistance of 5  and gives full- scale defection for 1 mA. To read 10 A full scale, what shunt resistance R s is needed? (see figure) VBVB - + rgrgrgrg Ammeter R 5  I g 1 mA I = 10 A rgrgrgrg A R s = 5.0005 x 10 -4  The shunt draws 99.999% of the external current.

25. Operation of an Voltmeter The voltmeter must be connected in parallel and must have high resistance so as not to disturb the main circuit. A multiplier resistance R m is added in series with the galvanometer so that very little current is drawn from the main circuit. V B = I g R g + I g R m RgRgRgRgI VBVBVBVB IgIgIgIg The voltage rule gives: RmRmRmRm

26. I g R m = V B - I g R g Multiplier Resistance Current I g causes full-scale deflection of meter whose resistance is R g. What R m is needed to read voltage V B of the battery? V B = I g R g + I g R m Which simplifies to: VBVB Voltmeter R I RmRmRmRm RgRgRgRg

27. Example 7. A voltmeter has an internal resistance of 5  and gives full- scale deflection for 1 mA. To read 50 V full scale, what multiplier resistance R m is needed? (see figure) R m = 49995  The high resistance draws negligible current in meter. VBVB Voltmeter R I g 1 mA I RmRmRmRm 5  RgRgRgRg
