Units:

Current is a scalar, signed quantity, whose
sign corresponds to the direction of motion of
net positive charges by convention
J = current density

Electric Current and Joule Heating
• Free electrons in a conductor gains
kinetic energy due to an externally
applied E.
• Scattering from the atomic ions of the
metal and other electrons quickly leads to
a steady state with a constant current I.
Transfers energy to the atoms of the solid
(to vibrate), i.e., Joule heating.
Lecture 10-11
Energy in Electric Circuits
• Steady current means a constant amount of charge Q flows past
any given cross section during time t, where I= Q / t.

EMF – Electromotive Force
• An EMF device is a charge pump that can maintain a potential
difference across two terminals by doing work on the charges
when necessary.
Examples: battery, fuel
cell, electric generator,
solar cell, fuel cell,
thermopile, …
• Converts energy (chemical, mechanical, solar, thermal, …)
into electrical energy.
Within the EMF device, positive charges
are lifted from lower to higher potential.

Energy Conservation
A circuit consists of an ideal battery
(B) with emf , a resistor R, and two
connecting wires of negligible
resistance.
Energy
conservation
• Ideal battery: no internal
energy dissipation
• Real battery: internal
energy dissipation exists
Work done by battery is equal
to energy dissipated in resistor
