electrostatic equilibrium
Now battery voltage forces charge through the conductor and we have a field in the wire.

What is the current density J ?
Directions of current i is defined as the direction of positive charge. I is not a vector.
(Note positive charge moves in direction of E) electron flow is opposite E.

Currents: Steady motion of charge and conservation of current
Current is the same throughout all sections in the diagram below; it is continuous.
Current density J does vary
i0 =i1 + i2 (Kirchoff's 2nd Rule)

Question: How does the drift speed compare to the instantaneous speed?
Instantaneous speed ~ 106 m/s
(This tiny ratio is why Ohm’s Law works so well for metals.)
Question: At this drift speed 3.5x10-5 m/s, it would take an electron 8 hours to go 1 meter. So why does the light come on immediately when you turn on the light switch?
It’s like when the hose is full of water and you turn the faucet on, it immediately comes out the ends. The charge in the wire is like the water. A wave of electric field travels very rapidly down the wire, causing the free charges to begin drifting.

Ohm’s Law
Want to emphasize here that as long as we have current (charge moving) due to an applied potential, the electric field is no longer zero inside the conductor.

Potential difference
True for many materials – not all. Note that Ohms Law is an experimental observation and is not a true law.
Constant of proportionality between V and I is known as the resistance. The SI unit for resistance is called the ohm.

What is Resistance?The collisions between the electrons and the atoms is the cause of resistance and the cause for a very slow drift velocity of the electrons. The higher the density, the more collisions you have.
The dashed lines represent the straight line tracks of electrons in between collisions

• Most metals: R increases with increasing T
• Semi-conductors: R decreases with increasing T

Build circuits with copper wire. We can neglect the resistance of the wire. For short wires 1-2 m, this is a good approximation.
Resistance: More on Resistance- Define Resistivity

BatteriesA device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy.
Emf of a battery is the amount of increase of electrical potential of the charge when it flows from negative to positive in the battery. (Emf stands for electromotive force.)
Carbon-zinc = Emf = 1.5V
Lead-acid in car = Emf = 2V per cell
(large areas of cells give lots of current) Car battery has 6 cells or 12 volts.
Power of a battery = P
P = εI ε is the Emf
Batteries are rated by their energy content. Normally they give an equivalent measure such as the charge content in mA-Hrs
milliamp-Hours
Charge = (coulomb/seconds) x secondsInternal Resistance
As the battery runs out of chemical energy the internal resistance increases.
Terminal Voltage decreases quickly.
How do you visualize this?
What is terminal voltage?

What is the relationship between Emf, resistance, current, and terminal voltage?Circuit model looks like this:

Resistance cube
The figure above shows 12 identical resistors of value R attached to form a cube. Find the equivalent resistance of this network as measured across the body diagonal---that is, between points A and B. (Hint: Imagine a voltage V is applied between A and B, causing a total current I to flow. Use the symmetry arguments to determine the current that would flow in branches AD, DC, and CB.)
