Answer

(a) The resistance isR1=3.75andR2=10.0

(b) The EMF of the battery is=7.5V

(c) The current through the resistance R2 and R3 isI2=I3=0.75A

(d) The total power of the battery is 26.25 W

Step by step solution

01

Step 1:Determine the Ohm’s law

Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance one arrives at the usual mathematical equation that describes this relationship

Given Data

The current is 2.0 A in resistance R1 and the current of 3.5 A is the total current flow in the circuit.

Dissipative power is = 15.0 W

02

Determine the resistance

(a)

The dissipative power can be calculated using the expression,

R1=P1I12R1=15.0W2.0A2R1=3.75

The three resistors R1, R2, andR3=10.0 are in parallel, and the potential difference V across resistors connected in the parallel is the same for every resistor and equals the potential difference across the combination, therefore,

V1=V2=V3=

Where V1 could be calculated by Ohm's law by using the values for I1 and R1 such that,

V1=I1R1V1=2A3.75lV1=7.5V

Now We can use this voltage to get current flowing in the resistance

I3=V310.0I3=7.5V10.0I3=0.75A

The total current 3.5 A is cut into the three resistors,

It=I1+I2+I3I2=3.5A-2A-0.75AI2=0.75A

Now We can get R2 using Ohm's law such that,

R2=V2I2=7.5V0.75A=10

Therefore the resistance is R1=3.75andR2=10.0

03

 Step 3: Determine the EMF of the battery and the total power

(b)

We want to find the emf of the battery.

As we discussed in part (a) the current through resistors connected in parallel is

the sum of each resistor, so, we can use the value of It to get the emf where the emf of the battery in the case of the equivalent resistance in the circuit R1, and R2 are in parallel so

We can use the following expression,

Then we calculate the equivalent resistance, such that,

1Requivalent=1R1+1R2+1R31Requivalent=13.75+110+1101Requivalent=715

Using the above expression, we can write,

=ItRequivalent=3.5A2.14=7.5V

(c)

Above we have calculated the current through R2 and R3, such that

(d)

We can get the total power dissipated in the three resistors such that,

P=I2RPt=P1+P2+P3Pt=15W+0.75A210+0.75A210\hPt=26.25WP=IP=7.5V3.5AP=26.25W

Also, we could confirm the energy conservation by getting the power output of the battery which in the case of internal resistance is zero it is given by,

Therefore the total power of the battery is 26.25 W

Electric eels generate electric pulses along their skin that can be used to stun an enemy when they come into contact with it. Tests have shown that these pulses can be up to 500V and produce currents of 80mA(or even larger). A typical pulse lasts for 10ms. What power and how much energy are delivered to the unfortunate enemy with a single pulse, assuming a steady current?

A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hair dryer into the same outlet. The hair dryer has power settings of 600 W, 900 W, 1200 W, and 1500 W. You start with the hair dryer on the 600-W setting and increase the power setting until the circuit breaker trips. What power setting caused the breaker to trip?

In the circuit shown in Fig. E26.49, C = 5.90 mF, 詯 = 28.0 V, and the emf has negligible resistance. Initially, the capacitor is uncharged and the switch S is in position 1.
