ConcepTest 21.2
You double the voltage
across a certain conductor
and you observe the current
increases three times. What
can you conclude?
Ohm’s Law
1) Ohm’s law is obeyed since the
current still increases when V
increases
2) Ohm’s law is not obeyed
3) this has nothing to do with Ohm’s
law

Wires I
Two wires, A and B, are made of the
1) dA = 4 dB
same metal and have equal length,
2) dA = 2 dB
but the resistance of wire A is four
times the resistance of wire B. How
do their diameters compare?
3) dA = dB
4) dA = 1/2 dB
5) dA = 1/4 dB
ConcepTest 21.3
Wires I
Two wires, A and B, are made of the
1) dA = 4 dB
same metal and have equal length,
2) dA = 2 dB
but the resistance of wire A is four
times the resistance of wire B. How
do their diameters compare?
3) dA = dB
4) dA = 1/2 dB
5) dA = 1/4 dB
The resistance of wire A is greater because its area is less than
wire B. Since area is related to radius (or diameter) squared,
the diameter of A must be two times less than B.

The voltage is provided at 120 V from the

resistance and therefore decreases the current
that flows through the lightbulb.

Kirchhoff’s Rules
The lightbulbs in the
1) both bulbs go out
circuit are identical. When

the switch is closed, what

happens?

Kirchhoff’s Rules
The lightbulbs in the
1) both bulbs go out
circuit are identical. When
2) intensity of both bulbs increases
the switch is closed, what
3) intensity of both bulbs decreases
happens?
4) A gets brighter and B gets dimmer
5) nothing changes
When the switch is open, the point
between the bulbs is at 12 V. But so is
the point between the batteries. If
there is no potential difference, then
no current will flow once the switch is
closed!! Thus, nothing changes.
Follow-up: What happens if the bottom
battery is replaced by a 24 V battery?
24 V

Wheatstone Bridge
An ammeter A is connected

between points a and b in the
2) I/2
circuit below, in which the four
3) I/3
resistors are identical. The current
4) I/4
through the ammeter is:
5) zero
Since all resistors are identical,
a
the voltage drops are the same
across the upper branch and the
lower branch. Thus, the
potentials at points a and b are
b
also the same. Therefore, no
current flows.

Eqn. 3 is valid for the left loop:
The left battery gives +2V, then
there is a drop through a 1W
resistor with current I1 flowing.
Then we go through the middle
battery (but from + to – !), which
gives –4V. Finally, there is a
drop through a 2W resistor with
current I2.
