Kircchoff’slaws Kirchhoff’s laws, named after the German physicist Gustav Kirchhoff, are fundamental principles in electrical circuit analysis. They are used to analyze and solve complex circuits. There are two main laws formulated by Kirchhoff: Mathematically, KCL can be stated as: ∑I(incoming) = ∑I(outgoing) Mathematically, KVL can be stated as: ∑V(drops) = ∑V(emfs) By applying Kirchhoff’s…
Temperature Dependence Temperature dependence refers to the relationship between a physical quantity or property and the temperature of a system. It describes how the value of a specific parameter changes as the temperature of the system is varied. Many physical phenomena and properties exhibit temperature dependence, and understanding these relationships is crucial in various fields…
Conductivity Conductivity is a physical property that describes the ability of a material to conduct electric current. It is a fundamental concept in physics and is commonly encountered in various fields, including electrical engineering, materials science, and chemistry. Conductivity is usually denoted by the symbol σ (sigma) and is measured in units of Siemens per…
Electrical Resistivity Electrical resistivity, also known as specific electrical resistance, is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies its ability to resist the flow of electric current. It is denoted by the symbol ρ (rho) and is measured in ohm-meters (Ω·m). Resistivity is a material-specific property that helps characterize the behavior of a substance…
Ohms law Ohm’s Law is a fundamental principle in electrical physics that relates the current flowing through a conductor to the voltage across it and the resistance of the conductor. It states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage (V) across the conductor and inversely proportional to the…
Mobility The physics syllabus for the Integrated Course at AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) covers a wide range of topics. However, since you specifically mentioned mobility, I assume you are referring to the topic of motion and mobility in physics. Here’s an overview of the relevant concepts: These are some of the key…
Electric current Electric current refers to the flow of electric charge in a conductor. It is the rate at which electric charges, typically electrons, move through a specific point in a circuit. Electric current is measured in units of amperes (A). There are two types of electric current: The flow of electric current is driven…
Superposition principle The superposition principle is a fundamental concept in physics that states that when multiple waves or physical quantities are present in a system, the resultant wave or quantity at any given point is the algebraic sum of the individual waves or quantities. This principle applies to various areas of physics, including classical mechanics,…
Equipotential Surfaces Equipotential surfaces are hypothetical surfaces in a region of space where the electric potential is the same at every point on the surface. In other words, all points on an equipotential surface have the same electric potential value. These surfaces are particularly useful in understanding and analyzing electric fields and the behavior of…
