Current Density:
Current density, J, is the current per unit area through any element of cross
section. It has the same direction as the velocity of the moving charges if
they are positive and the opposite direction if they are negative.
If the current is uniform and
parallel to dA, then
The SI unit for current density is the ampere per square meter (A/m2).
Since charge is conserved during the
transition, the amount of charge and
thus the amount of current cannot
change.
However, the current density
changes—it is greater in the narrower
conductor.
Current Density, Drift Speed:
In a conductor
•Electrons move randomly
•Drift with vd
•vd is opposite applied field
•Assume uniform current density
Resistance and Resistivity:
The resistance R is
The SI unit for resistance is the volt per ampere. This has a special name,
the ohm (symbol W):
In a circuit diagram, we represent a resistor and a resistance with the
symbol
R = r L/A
26.4: Resistance and Resistivity, Variation with Temperature:
The relation between temperature and resistivity for copper—and for
metals in general—is fairly linear over a rather broad temperature range.
For such linear relations we can write an empirical approximation that is
good enough for most engineering purposes:
26.5: Ohm’s Law:
Power in Electric Circuits:
The amount of charge dq that moves between two terminals in time interval
dt is equal to i dt.
This charge dq moves through a decrease in potential of
magnitude V, and thus its electric potential energy decreases in magnitude
by the amount
The power P associated with that transfer is the rate of transfer dU/dt, given
by
The unit of power is the volt-ampere (V A).

Quick/useful notes with Kirchoff’s rules:
Consider the three identical light bulbs shown in the circuit.
Bulbs B and C are wired in series with each other and are
wired in parallel with bulb A. When the bulbs are connected
to the battery as shown, how does the brightness of each
bulb compare to the others?
a) Bulbs B and C are equally bright,
but bulb A is less bright.
b) Bulbs B and C are equally bright,
but less bright than bulb A.
c) All three bulbs are equally bright.
d) Bulbs A and B are equally bright, but bulb C is less bright.
e) Only bulb A is illuminated.
Consider the circuit shown in the drawing. Two identical light bulbs,
labeled A and B, are connected in series with a battery and are
illuminated equally. There is a switch in the circuit that is initially
open. Which one of the following statements concerning the two
bulbs is true after the switch is closed?
a) Bulbs A and B will be off.
b) Bulbs A and B will be equally
illuminated.
c) Bulb A will be brighter and bulb B
will be off.
d) Bulb A will be off and bulb B will be
brighter.
e) Both bulbs will be dimmer than before the switch was closed.

Two lightbulbs operate at 120 V, but

2) the 100 W bulb
the other has a power rating of 100 W.

resistance?
Since P = V2 / R , the bulb with the lower
power rating has to have the higher
resistance.
Follow-up: Which one carries the greater current?
Two light bulbs, one “50 W” bulb and one “100 W” bulb, are connected in
parallel with a standard 120 volt ac electrical outlet. The brightness of a
light bulb is directly related to the power it dissipates. Therefore, the
100 W bulb appears brighter. How does the brightness of the two bulbs
compare when these same bulbs are connected in series with the same
outlet?
a) Both bulbs will be equally bright.
b) The “100 W” bulb will be brighter.
c) The “50 W” bulb will be brighter.
