Concept explainers

Ohm's law

Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.

Path of Least Resistance

In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.

You decide to “go green" and use an exercise bike to power your home appliances. Assume that your exercise bike is rigged to generate electrical power with 60% efficiency. In other words, only 6/10 of the power you develop can be used to store electrical energy for later use. Consider your 3500-Watt central AC unit. You need to run this unit for 4 hours each day during the summer. If you can develop a sustained power of 300 Watts on your exercise bike, how long would you have to work out just to keep the AC running on a summer day?
