1 Schematic Diagram Figures CASTLE Unit 2-EADING 1 Up to this point in our study of electricity, we have been representing our circuits by drawing real life pictures of the circuit components. As we begin to study more complicated circuits it is necessary to introduce a simple, standard design for circuit components. These specialized symbols are recognized internationally by scientists and engineers. When using these specialized symbols, we call the circuit picture a schematic diagram, sometimes referred to as a circuit diagram. When drawing schematic diagrams the convention is to replace cells, batteries, bulbs, etc which may be made by different companies, have different covers (Energizer vs. Duracell) or shapes and sizes (like bulbs) with a single symbol for ANY cell, bulb, wire, etc What follows is a list of EAL PICTUES and their SCHEMATIC SYMBOLS which are to be used in schematic diagrams. Your job is to learn the proper symbols for each. Consider the example of a complete circuit below. eal Picture Schematic Diagram + _ Diagrammatic Symbols On the next page you will find a list of common circuit components and their schematic equivalent.

3 What is a capacitor? Two layers of conducting material separated by a layer of an insulator form what is called a CAPACITO. The name comes from the capacity of this three-layer device to store both charge and energy. The conducting layers are called PLATES. The insulating layer is sometimes referred to as a dielectric layer. The insulating layer prevents movement of charge from one plate to the other inside the capacitor. You can make a simple capacitor by placing a sheet of waxed paper between two sheets of aluminum foil. In most capacitors the plates have very large surface area, so that they can store a large amount of charge. The plates are also made very thin, so that the three layers can be rolled into a cylinder and placed inside a small can. Each plate has a screw or a wire attached to it, called a TEMINAL, which extends outside the can and allows the plate to be connected to a circuit. The charge-holding ability of a capacitor is called its CAPACITANCE. Capacitance is measured in a unit called the FAAD, named after the British scientist Sir Michael Faraday ( ). The blue capacitor in your CASTLE kit has a capacitance of farad, or 25,000 micro-farads, µf. (Some kits may also have a small silver capacitor, which will not be used at this time.) Your teacher will have some large silver capacitors, which are to be shared by the class in a number of activities. These have a capacitance of 0.1 farad, or 100,000µF four times as much as the blue capacitor. NOTE: Sometimes capacitor plates may pick up stray charge that needs to be removed. A good way to avoid this problem is to keep a wire connected to the terminals of your capacitor when you are not using it. Also, after using a capacitor you will want to reset it so you can start all over again. To do this, touch a wire simultaneously to both of the capacitor terminals.

7 CASTLE Unit 2: eading 2 Electrical Energy The term energy is probably one you often use. However, if you attempt to define it, you may find it difficult to do so. Energy is the ability to make something happen. We have identified a number of things that happen in circuits charges move, compasses deflect, bulbs heat and give off light. What is the source of the energy that makes these things happen? In most of the circuits we have observed, the source of the energy has been the battery. In some circuits, however, there was no battery present. When a capacitor discharges, it can make these same things happen, so it must also have been a source of energy, at least temporarily. In some circuits, a Genecon was used, but the source of energy was the energy stored in your muscles. The cranking action transformed the energy from muscle storage to the energy of moving charges and bulbs releasing light. You know that batteries eventually wear down, and may become dead. This means that they no longer have sufficient energy stored in them to make something happen in a circuit. Some batteries are called rechargeable and can be re-used. This is an incorrect term, however, since the batteries task was never to supply charge to the circuit it was already there! These batteries would more properly called re-energizeable. In the circuit, charge originates in every conductor, and constantly re-cycles around the circuit. However, energy leaves the energy source and travels one-way, leaving the circuit as heat thermal and light energy radiating from the bulbs (the receivers of the energy). The energy source might be the stored chemical energy in a battery, or the stored energy in muscles used to crank a Genecon, the stored electrical energy in a charged capacitor. Modeling Workshop Project C2 ead 2 v3.1
8 Stored Energy and echargeable Batteries A fresh battery (such as a single D-cell) generally contains two substances, which we will refer to as A and B. These are high-energy substances (like some foods are known to be excellent sources of energy), which means that energy is stored in the chemical bonds within these substances. These two chemicals react inside the battery cell and release the energy that pushes charges around the circuit. The reaction is rolling down the energy hill when energy is released from the cell. The equation for the reaction is: A + B C + D + energy Eventually, however, substances A and B will be used up completely converted into low-energy substances C and D. When only substances C + D are left, we refer to the battery as dead. Some batteries, however, are designed so that the chemical reaction is reversible. By pumping energy back into the system from another source, the chemical reaction can be forced in the opposite direction. The diagram on the right below demonstrates energy being absorbed into the battery, climbing the energy hill. The equation for the reaction is: Energy + C + D A + B The battery is now refreshed or reenergized and can be used again to pump charges around a circuit. (The term rechargeable is misleading, since a battery never runs out of charge. Charge is present everywhere in the circuit, and is not supplied by the battery. The battery simply supplies the energy needed to make the charge move through the circuit. The term re-energizable battery would be more accurate.) Modeling Workshop Project C2 ead 2 v3.1

13 CASTLE Unit 2 - eading 3 Benjamin Franklin s + and - notation Movable charge is normally present in all conducting matter. Adding some charge to a normal capacitor plate will result in there being more than the normal amount of charge in the plate, while removing some charge will result in there being less than the normal amount of charge in the plate. Benjamin Franklin ( ) came to the same conclusions when he did his pioneering work in electricity a few years before the American evolution. Franklin is the person who first used (+) and (-) symbols in electricity. He used them to represent these two conditions: (+) represents a MOE-THAN-NOMAL amount of charge ( extra charge) (-) represents a LESS-THAN-NOMAL amount of charge ( missing charge) In the next section we shall begin using these symbols with the same meanings Franklin gave them. Franklin never knew about two kinds of charge. During the nineteenth century, the evidence for two kinds of charge became more compelling. Franklin s symbols were retained but later given different meanings as excesses of one kind of charge or the other. In this curriculum, the evidence for two kinds of charge will be presented in Section 8. Modeling Workshop Project C2 ead 3 v3.1
