Internal Resistance in
batteries
Batteries
A battery supplies nearly constant voltage NOT current
Notice headlights dim
when you start the car.
Headlights draw some current;
starter motor draws more
Inference: voltage from
batteries is not constant, but
depends somehow on current
Internal Resistance
To supply voltage, charged particles move within electrolyte.
Hindrance to the motion of charged particles = internal resistance.
ππ π’ππππππ π‘π πππππ’ππ‘ = π β πΌπ

Current through circuit
Internal resistance is
typically abbreviated with
lower-case r
Example
(part A)
A device with a 65-ο resistor is connected to the terminals of
a battery whose emf is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is
0.5 ο. Calculate the current in the circuit.
ππ π’ππππππ π‘π πππππ’ππ‘ = π β πΌπ where ππ‘π πππππ’ππ‘ = πΌπ
So, πΌπ
= π β πΌπ
So, πΌ(π

So πΌ =

Example
(part B)
A device with a 65-ο resistor is connected to the terminals of
a battery whose emf is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is
0.5 ο. Calculate the terminal voltage.
ππ‘π πππππ’ππ‘ = π β πΌπ = 12 π β 0.18 π΄ 0.5 ο = 11.9 π
Example
(part C)
A device with a 65-ο resistor is connected to the terminals of
a battery whose emf is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is
0.5 ο. Calculate the power dissipated by the device.
π = πΌπ = πΌ2 π

Example
(part D)
A device with a 65-ο resistor is connected to the terminals of
a battery whose emf is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is
0.5 ο. Calculate the power dissipated by the internal
resistance in the battery.
π = πΌπ = πΌ2 π = 0.18 π΄ 2 (0.5 ο) = 0.02 π
Batteries get warm! And
get warmer with larger
currents.
Power from a circuit
Purpose
The purpose of creating circuits
is to provide power to
components in that circuit, i.e.,
the things we want to do
something useful
β’ How much voltage?
β’ How much resistance?
β’ How much current?
β’ How much power?
Simplified home circuit
Devices have different power
requirements.
β’ Transformers convert the potential to
the appropriate voltage.
β’ Resistors convert the current to the
appropriate levels; devices themselves can
be modeled as resistors.
β’ Capacitors prevent surges and, with
resistors, control timing.
Adapters
Understanding resistance in
series circuit
Charge is conserved.
When electricity travels
through components in
series, πΌ = constant
Same current but ο± resistance
ο° ο± voltage drop ο° ο± power
Simple series circuit
Charge is conserved.
π = π
πΌ, so V3ο = (4 A) (3 ο) = 12 V
V6ο = (4 A) (6 ο) = 24 V
4 A through 3 ο resistor,
ο 4 A through 6 ο resistor
(and everywhere else)
π = ππΌ, so P3ο = (12 V)(4 A) = 48 W
P6ο = (24 V) (4 A) = 96 W
voltage
Voltage drops around a circuit
Energy is conserved.
The sum of changes in potential energy throughout the circuit
must add to zero.

Summary of resistors in series
In a circuit with resistors in series,
β’ Current is constant, πΌ = ππππ π‘πππ‘

Memorize that current is constant in series!
(a) Youβll understand the physics better
(b) You can derive the rest of these equations if
you also remember that V = RI
Example
A 10,000-ο resistor is placed in series with a 100-ο resistor.
The current in the 10,000-ο resistor is 10 A. If the resistors
are swapped, how much current flows through the 100-ο
resistor?
A. Less than 10 A
B. 10 A
C. More than 10 A
D. Not enough information to determine

ππ‘ππ‘ππ = π1 + π2 where π1 = πΌπ

π2 = πΌπ

Simple parallel circuit
The potential difference
is the same on each
branch of the parallel
circuit.
Current at junctions
Charged particles make up
current. Particles may
transfer energy, but are
not created or destroyed.
The amount of charge
entering any branch of a
circuit must equal the
amount of charge leaving
the circuit.
