THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.

Mainly 2 sources:
1) Power Stations
- Supply a lot of electricity
- Used in many electrical
appliances
2) Electric Cells (batteries)
- Supply a little electricity
- Portable
- Safe
5.
6. How does an Electrical Appliance Work?
• To make an electrical appliance work,
electricity must flow through it.
• The flow of electricity is called an electric
current.
• The path along which the electric current
moves is called the electric circuit.
7. What is an Electric Current???
Definition:
connecting
wire
electric
cell
filament
flow of electrons
An electric current is the rate of flow of electric
charges in a circuit.
8. Electric Charges
• Electric charges are made up of positive
charges (protons) and negative charges
(electrons).
• When these charges flow in a circuit, a
current is produced.
9. How does electricity flow?
• The battery in a circuit gives energy to
the electrons and pushes them around
a circuit, from the negative terminal of
the cell, round the circuit and back to
the positive terminal of the cell.
10. How to Measure Current?
• The SI unit for electric current is ampere (A).
• Smaller currents are measured in
milliamperes (mA).
1 A = 1,000 mA
1 mA = 0.001 A
• Different electrical components and
appliances require different sizes of current
to turn them on.
11. Instrument to Measure Current
• An ammeter is an instrument used for
measuring electric current.
12. Ammeter
• It must be connected in series in the circuit.
• Positive side of ammeter must be connected
nearest to the positive terminal of the battery
(electric cell), and vice versa.

14. Electric Circuits
• Electric circuits are
made up of electrical
components
• These components
must be joined
together without any
gap in between to
form a closed circuit.

Note:
Components refer to the
light bulb, wires, battery
15. Electric Circuits
• Incomplete circuits are called open circuits.
connecting wire is
missing
no source of
electrical energy
Both the circuits in the diagram are incomplete, hence they are known
as “open circuits”.

23. Series and Parallel
There are 2 ways in which an electric circuit can
be arranged:
1. Series
2. Parallel
24. Series Circuit
• A series circuit connects the components one
after the other
• A single loop is formed
• A break in any part of a series circuit stops the
flow of current in the whole circuit.
25. Parallel Circuit
• A parallel circuit divides into two or more branches.
• The current divides and flows through each parallel
branch.
• If a component breaks or is removed, the other
components remain on.
26. Which of the following is a series circuit?
Which is a parallel circuit?

32. Voltage
• An electric cell gives energy to the electrons and
pushes them round a circuit. Voltage is a measure
of how much energy the electrons receive.
• Different voltages are supplied by different cells and
batteries.
12 V Car Battery
1.5 V Dry Cell
9 V Dry Cell
33. How to Measure Voltage?
• The SI unit for voltage is volt (V).
• A voltmeter is an instrument used for measuring
voltages.
34. Voltmeter
• Voltmeters must be connected in parallel to the
circuit.
• The positive side of voltmeter is connected to the
positive terminal of the cell, and vice versa.
35. Ammeter
• It must be connected in series in the circuit.
• Positive side of ammeter must be connected nearest to
the positive terminal of the battery (electric cell), and
vice versa.
36. Electromotive Force (e.m.f)
• Electromotive force is the same as voltage.
• E.m.f refers to the amount of energy supplied by
the electric source (eg. battery) to each unit of
electric charge.
• E.m.f is also measured by a voltmeter
39. Potential Difference (p.d)
• Remember Diffusion?
• High Low
• Similarly, electric charges
will flow from a point of
higher potential (energy) to
lower potential

•This difference in electric potential between 2 points in a
circuit is known as the potential difference. It is the same
as VOLTAGE also.
40.
41. Resistance
• When an electric current flows through a circuit, there
will be some resistance that opposes it. (similar to
friction)
• It can be measured by dividing voltage by the current.
R =
V
I
R = Resistance
V = Voltage
I = Current
42. Resistance
• Good conductors of electricity have LOW
RESISTANCE. (Eg. Metal objects)
– Electricity is able to flow through them very easily
• Poor conductors of electricity have HIGH RESISTANCE.
(Eg. Wood, cloth)
– Electricity is not able to flow through them easily
43. Resistance
• The SI unit for resistance is ohm ()
• Different electrical components have different resistance
• For example, nichrome wires have a higher resistance than
copper wires.
So should we use nichrome or copper
to make wires?
44. Example 1
• An electric rice cooker operates at 240 V and uses a
current of 8 A. What is the resistance of the rice
cooker?
Voltage (V) = 240 V
Current (I) = 8 A
R =
V
I
R =
240
8
= 30
45. Resistors
• An electrical component that is specially made to have a
certain resistance is called a resistor.
• They can be connected in a circuit to resist the current
flow.
46. Fixed Resistors and Variable Resistors
• Fixed resistors have only one resistance value
• Variable resistors can be adjusted to change
the resistance.
fixed resistor symbol variable resistor symbol
•Variable resistors are
useful in light dimmers
and other electric
appliances
47. S/E: Resistors in Series
• When resistors are
connected in series, the
resistance will add up and
increase.
• R = R1 + R2 + R3…
2 3
The total resistance for this circuit is:
2 + 3 = 5
48. S/E: Resistors in Parallel
• When resistors are
connected in parallel, the
resistance will decrease
• This is because they will
provide alternate routes for
the current to flow.

50. Heating Effect of Electric Current
• When an electric current flows through a wire, the wire heats up.
Electrical energy has been converted into heat energy.
• The greater the resistance of the wire, the greater the amount of heat
produced. This heating effect is used in common electrical appliances.
Iron Kettle Hair Dryer
51. A kettle uses both copper and nichrome wires.
Copper has low resistance while nichrome has high resistance.
Which material, copper or nichrome, should be used for the heating
element, and for the external wire?
Use copper wire
for the external
wire as it has low
resistance &
produces less heat
Use nichrome wire for the heating
element as it has high resistance&
produces a lot of heat
52. Heating Effect of Electric Current
