through any cross sectional area of the conductor.

β’ Ampere
β’ When one coulomb charge flow through any cross sectional area in
one second then electric will be one Ampere.

β’ Electric current is taken as scalar
β’ Electric current is a SCALAR quantity! Sure it has magnitude and
direction, but it still is a scalar quantity!
β’ Confusing? Let us see why it is not a vector as Scalar Quantity .
β’ First let us define a vector! A physical quantity having both
magnitude and a specific direction is a vector quantity.
β’ Is that all? No! This definition is incomplete! A vector quantity also
follows the triangle law of vector addition.

β’ For example
β’ What will be the total displacement ?
β’ π΄ + π΅ + πΆ = 0
β’ Because last vector head joined with first vector tail.

β’ Now consider a triangular loop in an electric circuit with vertices A,B
and C.
β’ The current flows from Aβ B, BβC and CβA.
β’ Now had current been a vector quantity, following the triangle law of
vector addition, the net current in the loop should have been zero!
β’ But that is not the case, right? You wont be having a very pleasant
experience if you touch an exposed high current loop
8. Result
β’ So current does not follow triangular vector addition thatβs why
current is a scalar quantity not a vector
9. Current Density

of the conductor.

β’ Current density, J, yields current in Amps when it is integrated over
a cross-sectional area. The assumption is that the direction of J is
normal to the surface, and so we would write:
12. Current Density as a Vector Field
n
In reality, the direction of current flow may not be normal to the surface
in question, so we treat
current density as a vector, and write the incremental surface through the
small surface in the usual way:
where οS = n da
Then, the current through a large surface
is found through the integral:
13. Relation of Current to Charge Velocity
Consider a charge οQ, occupying volume οv, moving in the
positive x direction at velocity vx
In terms of the volume charge density, we may write:
Suppose that in time οt, the charge moves through a distance οx = οL =
vx οt
The motion of the charge represents a
current given by:
14. Relation of Current Density to Charge Velocity
The current density is then:
So in general form
15. Continuity of Current
Conservation of Charge:-
βThe Principle of conservation of charge
states that Charge can be neither created nor
destroyed, Although equal amounts of positive and
negative charge may be simultaneously created,
obtained by separation, destroyed or lost by
recombinationβ.
16. β’Equation of Continuity:-
βThe total current flowing out of some volume is equal
to the rate of decrease of charge within that volumeβ.
β’ Let us consider a volume V bounded by a surface S. A net
charge Q exists within this region. If a net current I flows
across the surface out of this region, from the principle of
conservation of
17. charge this current can be equated to the time rate of
decrease of charge within this volume. Similarly, if a net
current flows into the region, the charge in the volume must
increase at a rate equal to the current. Thus we can write the
current through closed surface is
18. β’ This outward flow of positive charge must be balanced by a
decrease of positive charge( or perhaps an increase of
negative charge) within the closed surface.
β’ If the charge inside the closed surface is denoted by Qi, then
the rate of decrease is βdQi/dt and principle of conservation
of charge requires.
19. β’ The above equation is the integral form of the
continuity equation, and the differential, or point, form is
obtained by using the Divergence Theorem to change the
surface integral into volume integral:
20. β’ We next represent the enclosed charge Qi by the volume
integral of the charge density,
β’ If we agree to keep the surface constant, the derivative
becomes a partial derivative and may appear within the
integral,
21. β’ Since the expression is true for any volume, however small, it is
true for incremental volume,
β’ From which we have our point form of the continuity equation,
22. β’ This equation indicates that the current, or charge per second,
diverging from a small volume or per unit volume is equal to
the rate of decrease of charge per unit volume at every point.
β’Numerical Example:
β’ Let us consider a current density that is radially outward and
decreases exponentially with time,
23.
24. β’ The velocity is greater at r=6 than it is at r=5.
β’ We conclude that a current density that is inversely
proportional to r.
β’ A charge density that is inversely proportional to rΒ².
β’ A velocity and total current that are proportional to r.All
quantities vary as e^-t.
27. METALLIC CONDUCTORS
β’ The behavior of the electrons surrounding the positive
atomic nucleus in terms of the total energy of the electron
with respect to a zero reference level for an electron at an
infinite distance from the nucleus.
β’ The total energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential
energies, it is convenient to associate these energy values
with orbits surrounding the nucleus, the more negative
energies corresponding to orbits of smaller radius.
β’ According to the quantum theory, only certain discrete
energy levels, or energy states, are permissible in a given
atom, and an electron must therefore absorb or emit
discrete amounts of energy, or quanta, in passing from one
level to another.
28. Contβ¦β¦..
β’ In a crystalline solid, such as a metal or a diamond, atoms
are packed closely together, many more electrons are
present, and many more permissible energy levels are
available because of the interaction forces between adjacent
atoms.
β’ We find that the allowed energies of electrons are grouped
into broad ranges, or βbands,β each band consisting of very
numerous, closely spaced, discrete levels.
β’ At a temperature of absolute zero, the normal solid also has
every level occupied, starting with the lowest and
proceeding in order until all the electrons are located. The
electrons with the highest (least negative) energy levels, the
valence electrons, are located in the valence band.
29.
30. Metallic conductor:
β’ If there are permissible higher-energy levels in the valence
band, or if the valence band merges smoothly into a
conduction band
β’ Additional kinetic energy may be given to the valence
electrons by an external field, resulting in an electron flow.
The solid is called a metallic conductor.
31. Insulator:
β’ If the electron with the greatest energy occupies the top
level in the valence band and a gap exists between the
valence band and the conduction band, then the electron
cannot accept additional energy in small amounts, and the
material is an insulator.
β’ Note that if a relatively large amount of energy can be
transferred to the electron, it may be sufficiently excited to
jump the gap into the next band where conduction can
occur easily. Here the insulator breaks down.
32. Semiconductors:
β’ An intermediate condition occurs when only a small
βforbidden regionβ separates the two bands, as
illustrated by Figure . Small amounts of energy in the
form of heat, light, or an electric field may raise the
energy of the electrons at the top of the filled band and
provide the basis for conduction.
β’ These materials are insulators which display many of
the properties of conductors and are called
semiconductors.
33.
34. METALLIC CONDUCTORS
β’ In conductor valence electrons, or conduction, or free,
electrons, move under the influence of an electric field. With
a field E, an electron having a charge π = βπ will
experience a force
πΉ = βππΈ
35. METALLIC CONDUCTORS

β’ In free space electron move and continuously increase its
velocity.
The velocity is drift velocity which is related to the electric
field intensity by the mobility of the electron Β΅ (mu)
ππ= βπ π πΈ
β’ The unit of mobility is square meter per volt-second

37. METALLIC CONDUCTORS
(cont.β¦)
β’ For these good conductors, a drift velocity of a few
centimeters per second is sufficient to produce a noticeable
temperature rise and can cause the wire to melt if the heat
cannot be quickly removed by thermal conduction or
radiation.
β’ As we know that
π½ = π π£ ππ β¦β¦.(1)
ππ= βπ π πΈ
Put value of ππ in eq.1
π½ = βπ π π π πΈ
38. Relationship between J and E
β’ The relationship between J and E for a metallic conductor,
however is specified by the conductivity π (sigma)
π½ = ππΈ
Where π is measured in Siemens per meter (
π
π
). One Siemens
is the basic unit of conductance in the SI system and is defined
as one ampere per volt. The unit of conductance was called the
mho and symbolized by an interval π The reciprocal unit of
resistance, which we call the Ohm.

40. METALLIC CONDUCTORS
(cont.β¦)
β’ Conductivity can be expressed in term of the charge density
and electric mobility as
β’ π = π π π π
Higher temperature infers a greater crystalline lattice
vibration, more impeded electron progress for a given electric
field strength, lower drift velocity, lower mobility, lower
conductivity and higher resistivity.
