2. 1)Everyday use several electronic devices, such as cell phone, computer, MP3, TV, microwave oven, etc. 2) All these devices have electrical circuits. 3)The basic science of electrical engineering is physics. 4)So here we study physics of electric circuits. Electric circuits are combinations of resistors and batteries. Importance

4. Joule’s Law of Heating

5. Heat produced in a given resistance in a given time t is H  i 2  t  R These are known as Joule’s laws.

6. Find the heat developed in each of the three resistors in 1 minute. Exercise – 1

7. Solution

9. Battery Electromotive Force (emf) Battery 1.For steady flow of charge carriers through the resistor, potential difference between ends of the device must be established. 2.Need a device that maintains a potential difference. 3.We call such a device an emf device. 4.A common emf device is the battery. 5.Examples of emf devices are: Electric generator, HP Battery, solar cells, Hydrogen fuel cells.

12. Within the Battery device (or source), positive charge carriers move from a region of low Electric ( - ve terminal ) to the region of higher electric potential ( at positive terminal). The strength of the source is measured in terms of the electromotive force (emf). emf

13. Mathematical expression of emf

15. In a real circuit we have to take the internal resistance R i of the source into account. The internal resistance R i of the source can be considered as connected in series to an ideal emf. Internal Resistance of a battery

17. Exercise - 2 Find the current i and potential difference a and b terminals.

18. Solution

19. Single-loop currents (Kirchhoff's rule )

21. Multi-loop circuits The procedure used to calculate the current flowing through a complicated circuit (with several resistors and emfs) is called the loop method. Procedure: Loop Method
