simple electric circuit and ohms law Flashcards
what is the simple electric circuit consists of
- electric source
- conductor
- key switch
- ammeter
- voltmeter
- fixed resistance
- variable resistance Rheostat
use of electric sourse
source of electromotive force to male electric potential defference between the terminal of conductor
use of wire
to conduct electrical charges through the closed circuit
use of key switch
to switch on or off the circuit
use of ammeter
instrument connected in series to measure the elerctric current intensity through the circuit
the ammeter of high efficiency should have
low resistance
use of voltmeter
instrument connected in parallel between two points to measure the electric potential differennce between this point
use of fixed resistance
it is consumes the electric energy in form of thermal energy
use of Rheostat
to adjusit resissnce of the whole circuit to allow suitaple current to transfer
diff electric current intensity
Rule and unit
it is the quantity of electric charges passes a given cross section in one second
I=RxV
AMPERE
diff potential difference
rule and unit
it is the work done to transfer a unit of charge between these two points
V=IxR
diff ohms law
it is the current intensity in a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference across its terminals at constant temperature
diff couloum
it is the quantity of electric charges when the electric chrges pasess in one sec
what meant by electric current intinsty = 5A
it is the quantity of electric charges pases in one sec through a closed circuit
what meant by the potential deffrence = 3 volt
the work done 3 joule to transfer a unit of charge 1 C between two terminal of conductor
