Concept explainers

Ohm's law

Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.

Path of Least Resistance

In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.

When a straight wire is heated, its resistance changes according to the equation R = R0 [1 + (T T0)] (Eq. 17.7), where is the temperature coefficient of resistivity. (a) Show that a more precise result, which includes the length and area of a wire change when it is heated, is R=R0[1+(TT0)][1+(TT0)][1+2(TT0)] where is the coefficient of linear expansion.

Review. When a straight wire is warmed, its resistance is given by R = R0,[1 + a(T T0)] according to Equation 27.20, where a is the temperature coefficient of resistivity. This expression needs to be modified if we include the change in dimensions of the wire due to thermal expansion. For a copper wire of radius 0.100 0 mm and length 2.000 m, find its resistance at 100.0C, including the effects of both thermal expansion and temperature variation of resistivity. Assume the coefficients are known to four significant figures.
