Chapter 25: Problem 13

Sketch a circuit diagram for a circuit that includes a resistor \(R_{\square}\) connected to the positive terminal of a battery, a pair of paralle resistors \(R_{2}\) and \(R_{3}\) connected to the lower-voltage end of \(R_{1}\) and then returned to the battery's negative terminal, and a capacitor across \(R_{2}\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
The final circuit diagram entails a single resistor \(R_{\square}\) connected to the positive terminal of the battery, a pair of resistors \(R_{2}\) and \(R_{3}\) wired in parallel and connected to the loose terminal of \(R_{\square}\), linking back to the battery's negative terminal. A capacitor is placed across \(R_{2}\).

Step by step solution

01

Sketch the Battery and \(R_{\square}\)

Start by drawing a battery on the left side of the diagram. Add the positive and negative terminals. Then, connect the positive terminal to a resistor labelled \(R_{\square}\). The other terminal of \(R_{\square}\) is not connected yet.
02

Draw the Parallel Resistors \(R_{2}\) and \(R_{3}\)

From the open terminal of \(R_{\square}\), sketch two lines branching out parallel to each other. Label these lines as \(R_{2}\) and \(R_{3}\) respectively. Now, waveform a line from the ends of \(R_{2}\) and \(R_{3}\) and connect it back to the battery's negative terminal.
03

Include the Capacitor Across \(R_{2}\)

Finally, from the ends of the resistor \(R_{2}\) (not the end that is connected to \(R_{\square}\)) draw two parallel lines for the capacitor parallel to \(R_{2}\). This completes the circuit diagram. Ensure it resembles a genuine electronic circuit, with all components accurately represented.

What's the emf of a battery that delivers \(27 \mathrm{J}\) of energy as it moves 3.0 C between its terminals?

Obtain an expression for the rate of increase ( \(d V / d t\) ) of the voltage across a charging capacitor in an \(R C\) circuit. Evaluate your result at time \(t=0,\) and show that if the capacitor continued charging steadily at this rate, it would reach full charge in exactly one time constant.

A capacitor used to provide steady voltages in the power supply of a stereo amplifier charges rapidly to \(35 \mathrm{V}\) every \(1 / 60\) second. It must then hold that voltage to within \(1.0 \mathrm{V}\) for the next \(1 / 60 \mathrm{s}\) while it discharges through the amplifier. If the amplifier draws 1.2 A from the \(35-\mathrm{V}\) supply, (a) what's its effective resistance, and (b) what capacitance is needed?

If you accidentally leave your car headlights (current 5 A) on for an hour, how much energy drains from the car's \(12-\mathrm{V}\) battery?

You company is designing a battery-based backup power source, In and your job is to assess its safety. You know that under damp or sweaty conditions, the resistance between two points of unbroken skin on the human body can be as low as \(500 \Omega\). Your product uses a \(72-\mathrm{V}\) battery whose internal resistance is \(100 \Omega .\) Is it capable of passing a fatal 100 mA (Table 24.3 ) through a damp human body?
