An electric cell is a device which converts chemical energy into electric energy.
The cell has two different metal plates – one is the positive terminal and the other is the negative terminal.
These plates are kept inside a chemical called electrolyte. The cell is a source of electric current. Electric current is the flow of electrons or charge.
An electric circuit is the closed path along which electric current flows from the positive terminal to the negative terminal of the cell.
A circuit generally has:
(a) a source of electric current - a cell or battery.
(b) connecting wires for carrying current.
(c) a device which uses the electricity - a bulb etc.
(d) a key or a switch – This may be connected anywhere along the circuit to stop or allow the
flow of current
.
(A) Battery :
The positive terminal of one cell is connected to the negative terminal of the next cell. Such a combination of two
or more cells is called a battery. Many devices such as torches, transistors, toys, TV remote controls, use batteries.
Connecting two cells together to make a battery
(B) Bulb :
In the bulb there is a thin wire, called the filament, which glows when an electric current passes through it.
When the bulb gets fused, its filament is broken.
(C) Electric switch :
An electric switch is a device that opens or closes an electric circuit.
When the switch (key) K is closed, the circuit is complete; current flows through the circuit and the bulb glows.
When the switch (key) K is open, the circuit is not complete; current does not flow through the circuit and the bulb does not glow.
Some common electric components can be represented by symbols.
CONDUCTORS : The materials which allow electric current to pass through them.
Ex. All metals like Copper, Iron, Silver and Human body.
INSULATORS : The materials which do not allow electric current to pass through them.
Ex. Plastic, Wood, Rubber and Glass.
(A) Heating effect of current :
The wire which are not very good conductors gets hot when an electric current passes through it.
This is the heating effect of the electric current.
Ex.
(i) Electric Heater :
(ii) Electric Iron :
The amount of heat produced in a wire depends on its material, length and thickness. Thus, for different requirements,
the wires of different materials and different lengths and thickness are used.
(iii) Electric bulb :
The filament of an electric bulb gets heated to such a high temperature that it starts glowing.
(B) CHEMICAL EFFECT OF ELECTRIC CURRENT (ELECTROPLATING)
The method of plating one type of over another by means of electricity is called electroplating.
Ex. To electroplate a stainless steel razor blade with copper.
Materials required : Glass beaker, copper sulphate solution, two pieces of connecting wire (50 cm long), a cell, stainless steel razor blade.
Method : Remove the insulation from the ends of both wires. Tie one end of a wire to the stainless steel razor blade and tape
the other bare end to the negative terminal of the cell. Tape one end of the other wire to the positive terminal of the cell and dip
its other end into the copper scrub the razor blade clean and dip it in the solution.
After electricity passes through the circuit for some time you will find a reddish-brown deposit on the blade. This is the coating of copper.
(C) MAGNETIC EFFECT OF CURRENT :
The needle of a compass is a tiny magnet, which points in north-south direction. When we bring a magnet close to it, the needle gets deflected.
Similarly we can also seen that compass needle gets deflected when the current flows in a nearby wire. Hans Christian Oersted was the
first person who noticed the deflection of compass needle every time the current was passed through the wire. So, when electric current passes
through a wire, it behaves like a magnet. This is the magnetic effect of the electric current. In fact, an electric current can be used to make magnets.
Factors which effect the strength of magnetic effect by current :
(i) Magnetic effect of current depends on number of turns.
(ii) Magnetic effect of current depends the value of current.
(iii) Magnetic effect of current depends on the nature of core inside the coil.
APPLICATION OF HEATING & MAGNETIC EFFECT OF CURRENT
Electric Fuse :
Wires made from some special materials melt quickly and break when large electric currents are passed through them.
These wires are used for making electric fuses,(figure). In all buildings fuses are inserted in all electrical circuits.
There is a maximum limit on the current which can safely flow through a circuit. If by accident the current exceeds
this safe limit, the wires may become overheated and may cause fire. If a proper fuse is there in the circuit,
it will blow off and break the circuit. A fuse is thus a safety device which prevents damages to electrical circuits and possible fires.
MCB :
These days Miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) are increasingly being used in place of fuses. These are switches which automatically
turn off when current in a circuit exceeds the safe limit. You turn them on and the circuit is once again complete.
Electromagnet :
Wind the wire tightly around the nail in the form of a coil. Connect the free ends of the wire to the terminals of a cell through a switch as shown in Fig.
The coil behaves like a magnet when electric current flows through it. When the electric current is switched off, the coil generally loses its magnetism.
Such coils are called electromagnets. The electromagnets can be made very strong and can lift very heavy loads. The electromagnets are also used
to separate magnetic material from the junk. Doctors use tiny electromagnets to take out small pieces of magnetic material that have accidentally
fallen in the eye. Many toys also have electromagnets inside them.
Electric bell :
It consists of a coil of wire wound on an iron piece. The coil acts as an electromagnet. An iron strip with a hammer at one end
is kept close to the electromagnet. There is a contact screw near the iron strip.
When the iron strip is in contact with the screw, the current flows through the coil which becomes an electromagnet. It, then,
pulls the iron strip. In the process, the hammer at the end of the strip strikes the gong of the bell to produce a sound. However,
when the electromagnet pulls the iron strip, it also breaks the circuit & the current through the coil stops flowing. The coil is no longer
an electromagnet & it no longer attracts the iron strip. The iron strip comes back to its original position and touches the contact screw again.
This completes the circuit. The current flows in the coil and the hammer strikes the gong again.
This process is repeated in quick succession. The hammer strikes the gong every time the circuit is completed. This is how the bell rings.
If a wire is stretched to n times of it's original length, its new resistance will be n2 times.
If a wire is stretched such that it's radius is reduced to of it's original values, then resistance will increases n4 times similarly
resistance will decrease n4 time if radius is increased n times by contraction.
If x% change is brought in length of a wire, its resistance will change by 2x%.
If n resistance (each R) are connected in series there resultant will be nR.
If n resistance (each R) are connected in parallel then their resultant will be .
The equivalent resistance of parallel combination is lower than the value of lowest resistance in the combination.
Ohm's law is not a fundamental law of nature. As it is possible that for an element :-
(i) V depends on I nonlinearly (e.g. vacuum tubes)
(ii) Relation between V and I depends on the sign of V for the same value [forward and reverse Bias in diode]
(iii) The relation between V and I is non unique. That is for the same I there is more then one value of V.
In general :
(i) Resistivity of alloys is greater than their metals.
(ii) Temperature coefficient of alloys is lower than pure metals.
(iii) Resistance of most of non metals decreases with increase in temperature. (e.g.carbon)
(iv) The resistivity of an insulator (e.g. amber) is greater then the metal by a factor of 1022
Temperature coefficient (a) of semi conductor including carbon (graphite), insulator and electroytes is negative.
At the time of charging a cell. When current is supplied to the cell, the terminal voltage is greater than the e.m.f. E
V = E + Ir
Series combination is useful when internal resistance is less than external resistance of the cell.
Parallel combination is useful when internal resistance is greater than external resistance of the cell.
Power in R (given resistance) is maximum, if its value is equal to net resistance of remaining circuit.
Internal resistance of ideal cell = 0

Magnetic field produced by solenoid does not depends on its radius of cross section (or average diameter)
Maxwell’s solenoid rule :– This rule is used to find out polarity of solenoid.
Magnetic field produced by solenoid is directed along its axis.
Magnetic field inside the solenoid is uniform.
Magnetic field outside the volume of the solenoid approaches to zero.
When a charge particle projected in uniform magnetic field neither perpendicular nor parallel then
trajectory of charge is called 'helix'.
Axis of helix :- It is a straight line along external magnetic field which joins all the centres of circular turns, called axis of helix.
Radius of circular path :- Centripetal force required to move the charge in a circle is provided by the magnetic force Fm = Fcp
q (vsinq) Bsin90° =
Magnetic force on per unit length of each infinite length wire is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
According to Flemming left hand rule or Right hand palm rule, like currents attracts to each other while unlike currents repels to each other.
