Study Notes
Flashlight Circuit
- A flashlight circuit requires a closed loop for current flow.
- Electrons are the charge carriers in a circuit.
- Batteries provide chemical energy to power the circuit.
Batteries Depletion
- Batteries connected in series share the total voltage equally.
- All batteries in a series circuit will deplete at the same rate.
Damaged Desk Lamp
- If one wire in a two-wire cord is cut, the circuit is broken.
- No current will flow through the bulb, and it will not light up.
Toaster Power Consumption
- Power consumption is directly proportional to current flowing through the circuit.
- Doubling current through a circuit results in a quadrupled power loss.
Power loss in power line
- The power loss in a power line is calculated by P=I^2*R, where P is power, I is current, and R is resistance.
- A power line carrying 10 amps with a resistance of 2 ohms will lose 200 watts of power as heat.
Magnetic Pole Properties
- A bar magnet has a north pole and a south pole.
- The magnetic poles can be reversed, but not removed or converted to the same polarity.
Magnet Manufacturing
- Bar magnets are magnetized by exposing them to a strong magnetic field.
- This field is usually generated by a coil carrying direct current (DC).
Magnet Demagnetization
- Permanent magnets can be demagnetized if they are heated or physically impacted.
- This is due to the realignment of magnetic domains within the magnet.
Steel Refrigerator Door
- Steel refrigerator doors are not permanently magnetic because their magnetic domains are randomly oriented.
- This means there is no net magnetic field.
Magnetic Field and Pole Strength
- The magnetic field strength in a coil is a measure of the magnetic force it produces.
- Steel rods with a pole strength are susceptible to magnetic forces.
