Luigi Galvani A charge applied to the spinal cord
of a frog could generate muscular
(1737-1798)
spasms throughout its body.
While cutting a frog leg, Galvani's
steel scalpel touched a brass hook
that was holding the leg in place.
The leg twitched.
Mary Shelley (1797-1851)
wrote “Frankenstein”(1816)
Alessandro Giuseppe
Antonio Anastasio Volta
(1745-1827)
In 1799 Volta made his 'Voltaic Cell'
by alternating disks of copper and zinc
separated by salt-water moistened pads.

The zinc electrode
collects a positive
charge as it dissolves.
Both tend to dissolve in even a salt solution!
though often dilute sulphuric acid was used…
As deposits collect on the copper electrode
it develops a positive charge.

Batteries chained

add their
potential
differences.
The word “battery” actually means a
set of “cells” lined up in sequence:
An automotive
accumulator is
a battery of 6
2-volt leadacid cells.
A plate coated in brown lead dioxide deposits (built
while “recharging”) builds a positive charge when
dissolved in dilute sulphuric acid. Grey lead plates
grow negative as lead sulphate coating develops.
-
Every e that leaves
the zinc electrode and
enters the “circuit”
enables another ion to
dissolve into the acid
A constant voltage
is maintained
(as long as the
Zn and Cu lasts).
So unlike a
single discharge,
this source is
continuous!

Georg Simon Ohm
1789 - 1854
VI
V = IR
1 ohm () allows a current of
1 ampere to pass when a
potential difference of 1 volt
is applied across it.
Ohm’s Law: V = IR
An electric toaster element
(Nichrome) is 20.
How great is the current when
it is connected to a 120v line?
(1) 1/6 A
(2) 1 A
(3) 5 A
(4) 6 A
(5) 120 A
(6) 240 A
0.8A runs through a lamp when
attached to a 32v source.

Work is continuously being performed
within a battery (or generator)
to maintain steady current flow!
Through friction /atomic collisions
with the crystal lattice of the resistor
the supplied energy is converted to heat.
(if hot enough may even produce light!)
How rapidly is work being done
in an electrical circuit?

Galvani was correct in so far as our
central nervous system is in fact
a complex electrical circuit:
Neurons fire electrical pulses along synapses.
Muscle fibers contract in response to these signals.

QUESTION 3
(5) 600 Watts
QUESTION 4
Since P = V2/R, P  1/R.
P = IV
Greater resistance: (1) the 25 W bulb
QUESTION 5
The greater current: (2) 100 W bulb
The bulb with the smallest resistance must
draw the greater current!
Also: since P = IV, P  I.
