Analyzing a Simple Circuit In a circuit using a battery, a lightbulb, and wires (a flashlight), the lightbulb has a resistance of ~3 Ω. The wires typically have a much lower resistance. We use an ideal wire where its resistance is 0. The potential difference in the wire is 0, even if there is current in it.

10. Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. Analyzing a Simple Circuit For the ideal-wire model, two wires are connected to a resistor. Current flows through all three, but the current only requires a potential difference across the resistor.

Charge Carriers  The outer electrons of metal atoms are only weakly bound to the nuclei.  In a metal, the outer electrons become detached from their parent nuclei to form a fluid-like sea of electrons that can move through the solid.  Electrons are the charge carriers in metals.

Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley.  The wire is already full of electrons!  We don’t have to wait for electrons to move all the way through the wire from one plate to another.  We just need to slightly rearrange the charges on the plates and in the wire.

Kirchhoff’s Laws Kirchhoff’s junction law, as we learned in Chapter 22, states that the total current into a junction must equal the total current leaving the junction. This is a result of charge and current conservation:

25. Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. Kirchhoff’s Laws The gravitational potential energy of an object depends only on its position, not on the path it took to get to that position. The same is true of electric energy. If a charged particle moves around a closed loop and returns to its starting point, there is no net change in its electric energy: Δu elec = 0. Because V = U elec /q, the net change in the electric potential around any loop or closed path must be zero as well.

27. Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. Kirchhoff’s Laws For any circuit, if we add all of the potential differences around the loop formed by the circuit, the sum must be zero. This result is Kirchhoff’s loop law: ΔV i is the potential difference of the ith component of the loop.

31. Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. Kirchhoff’s Laws ΔV bat can be positive or negative for a battery, but ΔV R for a resistor is always negative because the potential in a resistor decreases along the direction of the current. Because the potential across a resistor always decreases, we often speak of the voltage drop across the resistor.
