CHAPTER :ELECTRICITY

FORMULAE
1)Electric charge

Q = ne
n – number of electrons
e – charge of an electron (1.6 x10-19 C )

SI unit is coloumb

2) Electric current

I = Q / ot

Q – electric charge ( C)
T -time taken (s)

SI unit is ampere

3) potential difference

p.d or volt = w / Q
w – work done

Q - charge

SI unit is volt

4) Ohm’s law
V = IR
V – voltage ( v)

I – current (A)
R – resistance (

SI unit is volt
So, I = V / R
R = V/ I

5) Resistivity

Rho (P) =RA / l


Rho -resistivity

R - resistance
A – area
L – length of a conductor

SI unit is ohm m

6)Resistance in series
R = R1 + R2 + R3 +….+ Rn

7)Resistance in parallel
R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 +….+ 1/Rn

8) power
P = work / time taken
P =w / t
P = VI
