P. Electric Circuits Flashcards
1
Q
State Ohm’s Law
A
The potential difference across a conductor is directly proportionate to the current in the conductor at constant temperature
2
Q
Power
A
The rate at which work is done
3
Q
Define EMF
A
The maximum energy provided by a battery per unit charge passing through it
4
Q
Define rms Voltage
A
The rms potential difference is the AC potential difference which dissipates the same amount of energy as an equivalent DC potential difference
5
Q
Define rms Current
A
The rms current is the alternating current which dissipates the same amount of energy as an equivalent direct current
