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.

Chapter 20: Problem 9: An electric water heater consumes 4.5 kW for 2.2 h per day. a) What is the cost (in $) of running it for one year if electricity costs 13 cents/kWh?
Q1) Ohm's Law (in electricity) states that the current (I) is proportional to the applied voltage (V). The constant of proportionality is the resistance (R). The resulting equation is: V = IR. This equation is re-arranged to: I = (1/R) V. Since this is a linear equation, the plot between V (on the x-axis) and I (on the y-axis) should be a straight line, with the slope being 1/R. In an experiment, the following data has been obtained for current for different values of the voltage. Voltage 1 2 3 Current 0.8 2.5 2.9 4.2 5.6 a) Determine the equation for the best-fit line from this data, by using the method of least squares. Equation: Plot the data points, and the straight line representing the equation that you found in part b) 'a'. (Note: the best-fit line will not pass through all the data points) c) Use the slope of the line to find the resistance. Resistance: LO

Cost of Electricity A refrigerator is an appliance that is left running all the time. In New Orleans, Louisiana, the average residential electricity rate charged by Entergy is 9.82¢/kWh. Using this rate, how much will it cost to operate a refrigerator that requires 220 Watts in one month. You can use the following steps: 1. Convert power to kW = 2. Time (in hours) in one month (30 days) = %3D 3. Energy consumption (Power x Time) = 4. Cost (Rate x Energy) in dollars =
