A more general definition of the temperature coefficient of resistivity is α =1ρ|dρdT|where ρ is the resistivity at temperature T.
(a) Assuming α is constant, show that ρ = ρ0eα(T−T0)
where ρ0 is the resistivity at temperature T0.
(b) Using the series expansion ex ≈ 1 + x for x << 1,
show that the resistivity is given approximately by the expression
ρ = ρ0[1 + α(T − T0)] for α(T − T0) ≪ 1
The current I is measured through a sample of an ohmic material as a voltage V is applied. (a) What is the current when the voltage is doubled to 2V (assume the change in temperature of the material is negligible)? (b) What is the voltage applied is the current measured is 0.2I (assume the change in temperature of the material is negligible)? What will happen to the current if the material if the voltage remains constant, but the temperature of the material increases significantly?
Recall that the potential difference Vab is the work per charge done by the electric field.
Thus, the work W needed to move a charge Q through a resistor of resistance R is W=
QVab Also, recall that the power Pequals W/t and Q = It to find
%3D
P = Vabl.
This power is the rate at which a resistor dissipates electrical energy (that
is, converts it to thermal energy). P = Vabl also gives the rate at which a
source of emf delivers energy to an external circuit when the current leaves
terminal a and Vab is the terminal voltage of the source. Recall that the SI
unit of power is the watt (W), where 1 W = 1 J/s. The units work out in P =
е
Vabl. because 1 V = 1 J/C
