Lectures, Tutorials and Labs

Lectures, week 1 to 13

1 hour lecture on Wednesdays and 1 hour lecture on Fridays

Tutorials, week 2 to 13


One × 2 hour tutorials each week (group dependent)
Attendance to the Tutorials: to be regularly checked every week.
Attendance at tutorials is compulsory and will be counted in the
Assignment marks in part. There is an assignment every 4 weeks.
Failure to attend one week tutorial will lead to 25% loss of the marks in
this corresponding assignment. e.g. If there are 3 questions in weeks 5-8
assignment and the raw marks of your assignment is, say, 25 (each
question is worth evenly 10 marks), but you miss 2 week tutorials, then
the final marks of your assignment will be 25–25×2×25%=25–
25×50%=12.5 marks. But failure to attend totally 4 week tutorials will lead
to zero mark in your assignment. No late submission of assignment is
possible.
Stay with your timetabled tutorial session in order to record your
attendance properly.


Labs, week 2 to 13



Electronic Circuitry and Instrumentation
Each lab runs three hours
Stay with your timetabled lab session in order to record your attendance
properly.

Charge Balance


Neutral atoms are made of equal quantities of positive and
negative charges
 Neutral carbon has 6 protons, 6 electrons, (& neutrons)
Electrons can be stripped off atoms


Electrons occupy the vulnerable outskirts of atoms
Usually charge flows in such a way as to maintain
neutrality


Excess positive charge attracts excess negative charge
Your body has 51028 positive charges and 51028
negative charges, balanced within trillions

one trillion is small compared to 1028: less than one
quadrillionth of our total charge is unbalanced!

Current and Voltage
 Current is the time rate of flow of electric
charge past a given point
dq
i
A
dt
 The voltage is the work (energy) required to
move a unit positive charge from – terminal
to the + terminal.

Example 1
 Find the current in an element when the
charge entering the element is q=12t C,
where t is the time in seconds

Please determine the power absorbed by each
device:

Conservation of Energy
 Conservation of energy requires that
the sum of the power absorbed by all
of the elements in a circuit be zero.
