Electricity heating effect of electric current Priya Jha Priya Jha
When an electric current is passed through a conductor, the conductor becomes hot after some time and produce heat. This happens due to the conversion of some electric energy passing through the conductor into heat energy. This effect of electric current is called heating effect of current.The heating effect of current was studied experimentally by Joule in 1941. After doing his experiments Joule came to the conclusion that the heat produced in a conductor is directly proportional to the product of square of current (I2), resistance of the conductor (R) and the time (t) for which current is passed. Thus,
H I2Rt
Derivation of Formula
To calculate the heat produced in a conductor, consider current I is flowing through a conductor AB of resistance R for time t. also consider that the potential difference applied across its two ends is V.
Now, total amount of work done in moving a charge q from point A to B is given by:
W = q X V (1)
Now, we know that charge = current × time
or q = I X t
and V = I X R (Ohm’s law)
Putting the values of q and V in equation (1), we get
W = (I X t) X (I X R)
Or W = I2Rt
Now, assuming that all the work done is converted into heat energy we can replace symbol of ‘work done’ with that of ‘heat produced’. So,
H = I2RT
Applications of Heating Effect of Current
The heating effect of current is used in various electrical heating appliances such as electric bulb, electric iron, room heaters, geysers, electric fuse etc.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

3. Electric current and circuit
If the electric charge flows through a conductor (a
metallic wire) we say that there is an electric
current in the conductor.
A switch makes a conducting link between the cell
and the bulb. A continuous and closed path of
an electric current is called an electric circuit
If the circuit is broken anywhere (or the switch of
the torch is turned off), the current stops
flowing and the bulb does not glow
4.
5. Electric current The amount of charge flowing
through a particular area in unit time, i.e. the
rate of flow of electric charges
In metallic wires, electrons constitute the flow
of charges
Electrons were not known at the time when the
phenomenon of electricity was first observed. So,
electric current was considered to be the flow
of positive charges and
the direction of flow of positive charges was
taken to be the direction of electric current
6. Conventionally, in
an electric circuit
the direction of
electric current
(positive to
negative) is taken
as opposite to the
direction of the
flow of electrons
Electric current flows in the circuit from the
positive terminal of the cell to the negative
terminal of the cell through the bulb and
ammeter
8. Current formula
If a net charge Q flows across any cross-section of
a conductor in time t, then the current I through
the cross-section is
current I = net charge Q/ time t
SI unit electric charge = coulomb 'C' equivalent
to the charge contained in nearly 6 x 1018
electrons
An electron possesses a negative charge of 1.6 X
10-19
C
9. Electron/s Charge (C)
1 1.6 x 10-19
6 x 1018
6 x 1018
x 1.6 X 10-19
= 9.6 x 10-1
Charles-Augustin de Coulomb
10. The chemical action within a
cell generates the potential
difference across the
terminals of the cell, even
when no current is drawn from
it
In order to maintain the current
in a given electric circuit, the
cell has to expend its chemical
energy stored in it
11. SI unit electric current = ampere 'A'
One A is constituted by the flow of one C of
charge per second
1A = 1C/ 1s
André-Marie Ampère
Small quantities of current
milliampere 1mA = 10-3
A
microampere 1µA = 10-6
A
12. Ammeter measures
electric current in a
circuit; always
connected in series in
a circuit
•YouTube video explain working of
ammeter. Add
Instruments used to measure smaller currents,
in the milliampere or microampere range, are
designated as milliammeters or microammeters
13. Flow of charges inside a wire
Electrons are able to travel through a perfect
solid crystal smoothly and easily, as if they were
in a vacuum. The motion of electrons in a
conductor is different from that of charges in
empty space.
When a steady current flows through a
conductor, the electrons in it move with a certain
average drift speed. The drift speed of electrons
for a copper wire carrying a small current is
small, 1mm s-1
14. Electric potential and potential difference
What makes the electric charge to flow?
The electrons move only if there is a difference
of electric pressure – potential difference –
along the conductor
The potential difference may be produced by a
battery consisting of one or more electric cells
15. Definition Electric potential difference
between two points in an electric circuit
carrying some current = work done to move a
unit charge from one point to the other
Potential difference between two points (V) =
Work done (W)/ Charge (Q)
SI unit volt (V)
16. One volt is the potential difference between two
points in a current carrying conductor when 1
joule of work is done to move a charge of 1
coulomb across one point to other
1 volt = 1 joule/ 1 coulomb
The potential difference is measured by
means of an instrument called the voltmeter.
The voltmeter is always connected in parallel
across the points between which the potential
difference is to be measured
17. Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio
Anastasio Volta
A voltmeter is an
instrument used for
measuring electrical
potential difference
between two points in an
electric circuit.
18. One joule is the equivalent of one watt of power
radiated or dissipated for one second
James Prescott Joule
19. Ohm's Law
Definition The potential difference across the
ends of a given metallic wire in an electric
circuit is directly proportional to the current
flowing through it, provided its temperature
remains same
V I, V/ I = constant (R),∝ V = IR
20. Relationship between the potential
difference across a conductor and the
current through it
V-I graph is a straight line passing through the
origin. V/I is a constant ratio
Georg Simon Ohm
21. R is a constant for the given metallic wire at a
given temperature and is called resistance.
Resistance The property of a conductor to resist
the flow of charges through it
SI unit = ohm Ω
Ohm's law R = V/ I
•If the potential difference across the two ends of
a conductor is 1 V and the current through it is 1
A, then the resistance R of the conductor is 1 Ω
•1 ohm = 1 volt/ 1 ampere
22. The current through a resistor is inversely
proportional to its resistance. If the
resistance is doubled the current gets halved
A component used to regulate current without
changing the voltage source is called variable
resistance. A rheostat is often used to change
the resistance in the circuit
23. The word rheostat was coined
about 1845 by Sir Charles
Wheatstone. It is a two-terminal
variable resistor. The term
"rheostat" is becoming
obsolete, with the general term
"potentiometer" replacing it
The most common
way to vary the
resistance in a
circuit is to use
a rheostat
24. Factors responsible for the resistance of a
conductor
The current is different for different
components. Certain components offer an
easy path for the flow of electric current
while the others resist the flow.
The ammeter reading decreases to one-half
(half) when the length of the wire is
doubled.
25. The ammeter reading increases when a
thicker wire of the same material and of the
same length is used
The ammeter reading changes when a wire of
different material of the same length and the
same cross-section is used
26. On applying Ohm's law, it is observed that,
The resistance of the conductor depends
1)on its length,
2)on its area of cross-section, and
3)on the nature of its material
Resistance (R) of a uniform metallic conductor
is directly proportional to its length (l) and
inversely proportional to the area of cross-
section (A)
27. R l and R 1/ A∝ ∝
Hence R l/ A = p l/ A∝
ρ (rho) = constant of proportionality =
electrical resistivity of the material of the
conductor
SI unit = Ω m
It is a characteristic property of the material
28. Metals and alloys have very low resistivity,
range 10-8
– 10-6
Ω m = good conductors of
electricity
Conductor tungsten (ρ = 5.20 x 10-8
) is used
almost exclusively for filaments of electric bulbs,
whereas copper (ρ = 1.62 x 10-8
) and aluminium
(ρ = 2.63 x 10-8
) are generally used for electrical
transmission lines
29. Resistivity (ρ) of an alloy is generally higher
than that of its constituent metals. Alloys do
not oxidise (burn) readily at high temperatures.
For this reason alloys are commonly used in
electrical heating devices like electric iron,
toasters, etc.
Nichrome (ρ = 100 x 10-6
) = Alloy of nickel,
chromium, manganese, and iron
The above values are at temperature 20 °C
30. Insulators
rubber, glass – high resistivity
1012
– 1017
Ω m
Resistance (R) and resistivity of a material (ρ)
vary with temperature
31. Resistance of a system of resistors
Current through a conductor depends upon its
resistance and the potential difference
across its ends.
Application of Ohm's law to combination of
resistors
Two methods (series and parallel)
33. • Resistors in series
Having resistances R1, R2 and R3 connected end to
end in series
Value of the current in the ammeter is the same,
independent of its position in the electric
circuit
In a series combination of resistors the
current is the same in every part of the
circuit or the same current through each
resistor
34. Potential difference is equal to the sum of
potential differences V1, V2 and V3
The potential difference across a
combination of resistors in series is equal to
the sum of potential difference across the
individual resistors,
V = V1 + V2 + V3
35.
36. It is possible to replace the three resistors joined
in series by an equivalent single resistor of
resistance R, such that the potential difference
across it, and the current I through the circuit
remains the same,
V = IR
Applying Ohm's law to the three resistors
separately,
V1 = IR1 V2 = IR2 V3 = IR3
37. Hence IR = IR1 + IR2 + IR3
OR
Rs = R1 + R2 + R3
When several resistors are joined in series,
the resistance of the combination Rs equals
the sum of their individual resistances R1, R2,
and R3 and is greater than any individual
resistance
38. • Resistors in parallel
Total current I = sum of the separate currents
through each branch of the combination
I = I1 + I2 + I3
Rp is the equivalent resistance of the parallel
combination of resistors
I = V/ Rp
Applying Ohm's law to each resistor
I1 = V/ R1, I2 = V/ R2, I3 = V/ R3
V/ Rp = V/ R1 + V/ R2 + V/ R3
40. The reciprocal of the equivalent resistance of a
group of resistances joined in parallel = sum of
the reciprocals of the individual resistances
Disadvantages of series circuit
In a series circuit the current is constant
throughout the electric circuit. It is obviously
impracticable to connect an electric bulb and an
electric heater in series because they need
currents of widely different values to operate
properly
41. When one component fails the circuit is
broken and none of the components works,
e.g. fairy lights
Advantages of parallel circuit
•Divides the current through the electrical
gadgets
•The total resistance is decreased
•It is helpful particularly when each gadget has
different resistance and requires different
current to operate properly
42. Heating effect of electric current
A part of the source energy in maintaining the
current may be consumed into useful work
(like in rotating the blades of an electric fan)
Rest of the source energy may be expended in
heat to raise the temperature of the gadget
An electric fan becomes warm if used
continuously for longer time
43. Heating effect of electric current
If the electric circuit is purely resistive, i.e. a
configuration of resistors only connected to a
battery; the source energy continually gets
dissipated entirely in the form of heat, e.g.
electric heater, electric iron, boiler, geyser
44. Current I, Resistor of resistance R, Potential
difference V, time t, charge Q
Work done P = VQ
Power input in time t, P = V x Q/t = VI
Energy supplied to the circuit by the source in
time t = P x t = VI x t
Energy expended by the source gets dissipated
in the resistor as heat
For a steady current I, the amount of heat H
produced in time t, H = VIt
45. Applying Ohm's law,
H = I2
Rt Joule's law
Heat produced in a resistor is 1) directly proportional to
the square of current for a given resistance, 2) directly
proportional to resistance for a given current, and 3)
directly proportional to the time for which the current
flows through the resistor
H = I2
Rt is used after calculating the current through it,
using the relation I = V/ R
Heat energy is expressed in calories, 4.18 J = 1 calorie
H = I2
Rt/4.18 cal = V2
t/4.18R cal = VIt/4.18 cal
46. • Practical applications of Joule's heating
The generation of heat in a conductor is an
inevitable consequence of electric current. In
many cases it is undesirable as it converts
useful electrical energy into heat. The
unavoidable heating can increase the
temperature of the components and alter their
properties
Heating effect of electric current has many useful
applications. E.g. iron, toaster, oven, kettle,
heater
47. Electrical heating is also used
to produce light, as in a bulb.
The filament must retain as
much of the heat generated as
is possible, so that it gets very
hot and emits light. It must not
melt
A strong metal with high melting point such as
tungsten (melting point 3380 °C) is used for
making bulb filaments. The filament should be
thermally isolated as much as possible, using
insulating support
48. The bulbs are usually
filled with chemically
inactive nitrogen and
argon gases to prolong
the life of the filament
Most of the power
consumed by the
filament appears as
heat, but a small part of
it is in the form of light
radiated
49. Fuse used in electric circuits is a
common application of Joule's
heating. The fuse protects
circuits and appliances by
stopping the flow of any unduly
high electric current. The fuse is
placed in series with the
device.
If a current larger than the specified value flows through
the circuit, the fuse wire melts due to heating
Fuses for domestic purposes are rated 1 A, 2 A, 3 A, 5 A,
10 A etc. For an electric iron which consumes 1 kW
electric power when operated at 220 V, a current 4.54 A
flows in the circuit. Here a 5 A fuse must be used.
50. Electric power
Rate of doing work is power = rate of
consumption of energy
H = I2
Rt gives the rate at which electric energy is
dissipated or consumed in an electric circuit =
electric power
Power P is given by P = VI
OR
P = I2
R = V2
/ R
SI unit watt (W)
51. Watt Power consumed by a device
that carries 1 A of current when
operated at a potential difference of
1 V
1 W = 1 VA
James Watt
Unit watt is very small
In actual practice a larger unit called kilowatt
(kW = 1000 W) is used
52. Unit of electric energy watt hour (Wh)
One watt hour is the energy consumed when 1
watt of power is used for 1 hour
The commercial unit of electric energy is kilowatt
hour (kWh)
1 kWh = 1000 watt x 3600 second
= 3.6 x 106
watt second
= 3.6 x 106
joule (J)
