JOULE'S
LAW
|
|||
| INTRODUCTION:
www.citycollegiate.com When an electric current passes through a wire heat energy is produced. It is due to the collision of electrons with the atoms. In order to continue steady current, work has to be done on electric charges. |
|||
| STATEMENT: Amount of work done on electric charge on steady current is directly proportional to amount of heat. |
|||
|
Work
a Heat
|
|||
| PROOF: | |||
| Consider a conductor through which electric current q is passing in time t let the potential difference between two ends of wire is V. | |||
| We know that | |||
|
v
= W/q
or W = q x V_(i) According to Ohm’s law V = IR putting the value of V in equation (i) W = q x IR_______(ii) |
|||
|
But
I = q/t Or Q = It |
|||
| putting the value of q in equation (ii) | |||
|
W
= It . IR
W = I2Rt |

|
||
| Ohm’s law is a quantitative relation b/w potential difference and electric current. | |||
|
STATEMENT
|
|||
| According to Ohm’s law, | |||
|
"The
electric current passes through a conductor is directly proportional
to the potential differences between the ends of conductor, if physical conditions of conductor remain constant." |
|||
| i.e. | |||
|
I
a V
I = kV |
|||
| K =constant and is called "conductivity of material" | |||
|
I/K
= V
or V = I/K V = I x 1/K Let [1/K = resistance] |
|||
|
V
= I x R
