Understanding the concept of current and power

In the given problem, the current flowing through the entire circuit and the given batteries is given by Kirchhoff鈥檚 voltage law. If an amount of current is passing through the positive terminal of the device, then the device is supplying power to an external circuit. If the current enters a device at its positive terminal, then that device is absorbing or being supplied with power.

Formulae:

The voltage equation using Ohm鈥檚 law,

V=IR (i)

The equivalent resistance for a series combination,

Req=1nR1 (ii)

The equivalent resistance for a parallel combination,

Req=1n1R1 (iii)

Kirchhoff鈥檚 voltage law,

closedloopV=0 (iv)

The power of a battery,

P=IV (v)

Kirchhoff鈥檚 junction rule,

lh=lout (vi)

Here l is the current V is the voltage, and R is the resistance.

03

a) Calculation of the size of the current i1

First, the bottom parallel pair of resistances is reduced to one single resistance using equation (iii) as follows:

R'=R22R=R2=2.02=1.0

Now, the equivalent resistance of the bottom resistors with the resistor in series on the left of the circuit can be given using equation (ii) as follows:

R'=R+R'=2.0+1.0=3.0

It is clear from the figure that the current through the equivalent resistance is i1. Now,the loop rule is employed in a chosen path that includes R'' and all the batteries (proceeding clockwise.)

Thus, using equation (i) in the loop rule of equation (iv), the size of the current can be given as follows: (assumingi1 goes leftward through R'')
3+1-2-i1R''=05.0V+20.0V-10.0V-i13.0=0i1=15V3.0=5.0A

Hence, the value of the current is 5.0A..

04

b) Calculation of the direction of the current i1

Since the sign of the current in part (a) is positive, this implies that our assumption of the current being in a leftward direction is correct.

Hence, the direction of the current is leftwards.

05

c) Calculation to know whether battery 1 supply or absorb energy

Since the current through battery 1 (1=20.0V) is 鈥渇orward鈥, battery 1 is supplying energy.
Hence, battery 1 supplies energy.

06

d) Calculation of the power of the battery 1

The rate of energy supplied by battery 1 is its power that is given using the given data in equation (v) as follows:

P=(5.0A)(20.0V)=100W

Hence, the value of the power is 100 W .

07

e) Calculation to know whether battery 2 supply or absorb energy

Now, the equivalent resistance of the parallel pair of resistors attached with battery 2 can be given using equation (iii) as follows:

R'''=R22R=R2=2.02=1.0

Now, the amount of current through equivalent resistance is given using equation (i) as follows:

i'=10.0V1.0=10.0A,Downward

But for the current to be in the upward direction for battery 2, the current can be given using equation (vi) as:

i=i'-i1=10.0A-5.0A=5.0A,upward

Hence, battery 2 supplies energy.

08

f) Calculation of the power of the battery 2

The rate of energy supplied by battery 2 is its power that is given using the given data in equation (v) as follows:

P=5.0A10.0V=50W

Hence, the value of the power is 50W .

09

g) Calculation to know whether battery 3 supply or absorb energy

Now, the equivalent resistance of the pair of resistors attached with battery 3 can be given using equation (iii) as follows:

1R''''=1R+1R+12R=2+2+12R=52RR''''=2R5=22.05=0.8

Now, the amount of current through equivalent resistance is given using equation (i) as follows:

i''=5.0V0.8=6.25A,Download

But for the current to be in the upward direction for battery 3 using the junction rule of equation (vi), the current can be given as:

i'''=i''+i1=6.25A+5.0A=11.25Aupward

Hence, battery 3 supplies energy.

10

h) Calculation of the power of the battery 3

The rate of energy supplied by battery 1 is its power that is given using the given data in equation (v) as follows:

P=(11.25A)(5.0V)=56.25W56.3W

Hence, the value of the power is 56.3W.

Question: Harvard Bridge, which connects MIT with its fraternities across the Charles River, has a length of 364.4 Smoots plus one ear. The unit of one Smoot is based on the length of Oliver Reed Smoot, Jr., class of 1962, who was carried or dragged length by length across the bridge so that other pledge members of the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity could mark off (with paint) 1-Smoot lengths along the bridge. The marks have been repainted biannually by fraternity pledges since the initial measurement, usually during times of traffic congestion so that the police cannot easily interfere. (Presumably, the police were originally upset because the Smoot is not an SI base unit, but these days they seem to have accepted the unit.) Figure 1-4 shows three parallel paths, measured in Smoots (S), Willies (W), and Zeldas (Z). What is the length of 50.0 Smoots in (a) Willies and (b) Zeldas?

A standard interior staircase has steps each with a rise (height) of 19 cm and a run (horizontal depth) of 23 cm. Research suggests that the stairs would be safer for descent if the run were, instead, 28 cm. For a particular staircase of total height 4.57 m, how much farther into the room would the staircase extend if this change in run were made?
