DC NETWORK THEOREM
Current: “Rate of flow of electric charge.”
Charge
I=
Coulombs/Sec or Ampere
time
Note:1.
Direction of current is same as the direction of motion of +Ve charge or opposite to the direction of
motion of –Ve charge.
Voltage: “Energy required in transferring a charge of one coulomb from one point to
another point.”
Energy(W)
V=
Joule/Coulomb or Volts
Charge(Q)
EMF (Electromotive force): “The EMF of a voltage source is the energy imparted by
the source to each coulomb of the charge passing through it.”
Energy(W)
Joule/Coulomb or Volts
E=
Charge(Q)
Potential Difference: “The pd between two points is the energy required in transferring a
charge of coulomb from one point to another point.”
Energy(W)
pd =
Joule/Coulomb or Volts
Charge(Q)
Voltage drop: “The voltage drop between two points is the decrease in energy required
in transferring a charge of coulomb from one point to another point.”
Energy(W)
Voltage drop =
Joule/Coulomb or Volts
Charge(Q)
Resistance: “Electric resistance is the property of material which offers opposition to the
flow of current and dissipates energy.”
l
Ohm or Ω
(Law of resistance)
R=ρ
a
l = Length of the wire
Where
a = cross − sectional area of the wire
ρ = Resistivit y or Specific Resistance of the material
Note:1.
Resistance also depends on temperature.
Ohm’s Law: “The current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to
potential drop across its ends provided physical conditions are same.”

resistance has a value of 1 ohm, second has a voltage drop of 4 Volts & third has power
dissipation of 12 W. Calculate value of each resistance & circuit current.

Circuit or Network Elements: R, L, C
Network or Circuit: “Path followed by an electric current.”
Or
“Any interconnection of circuit elements with or without energy sources.”
Note:1.
2.
A circuit must have a closed energized path.
A network may not have a closed path i.e. T-Network
3.
So every network may not be circuit (i.e. T-Network) but every circuit is a network.

Loop: “Any closed path in the network.”
Mesh: “A closed path which does not have any closed path inside it.”
Node: “It is a junction where 2 or more branches are connected together.”
