Chapter 4: Q33E (page 843)

The circuit shown in Fig. E25.33 contains two batteries, each with an emf and an internal resistance, and two resistors. Find (a) the current in the circuit (magnitude and direction) and (b) the terminal voltage Vabof the 16.0-V battery.

Fig. E25.33

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The current in the circuit is 0.471 A.
  2. The terminal voltage Vabof the 16.0 V battery is 15.2 V

Step by step solution

01

Concept of Kirchhoff’s loop rule.

Kirchhoff鈥檚 loop rule states that the addition of all the potential differences going around the closed loop is zero.

02

  (a) Determination of the current in the circuit.

Apply the Kirchhoff鈥檚 loop rule around the circuit in the direction of the flow of current,

+16.0V-8.0V-l(1.6惟+5惟+1.4惟+9.0惟)=0l=+16.0V-8.0V1.6惟+5惟+1.4惟+9.0惟=0.471AThecalculatedvalueofIispositiveandthusthecurrentflowsinanti-clockwisedirection.

The calculated value of I is positive and thus the current flows in anti-clockwise direction.

03

(b) Determination of the terminal voltage Vab of the 16.0 V battery.

Take voltage at point a and b as respectively.

Va=Vb+16.0V-l(1.6惟)So,Va-Vb=Vab=16.0V-(1.6惟)(0.47A)=15.2V.Thus,thevoltageVabis15.2V.

Question:A ring-shaped conductor with radius a = 2.50 cm has a total positive charge Q = +0.125 nC uniformly distributed around it (see Fig. 21.23). The center of the ring is at the origin of coordinates O. (a) What is the electric field (magnitude and direction) at point P, which is on the x-axis at x = 40.0 cm? (b) A point charge q = -2.50 渭C is placed at P. What are the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by the charge q on the ring?

In the circuit shown in Fig. E26.47 each capacitor initially has a charge of magnitude 3.50 nC on its plates. After the switch S is closed, what will be the current in the circuit at the instant that the capacitors have lost 80.0% of their initial stored energy?

In an electric trolley or bus system, the vehicle motor draws current from an overhead wire by means of a long arm with an attachment at the end that slides along the overhead wire. A brilliant electric spark is often seen when the attachment crosses a junction in the wires where contact is momentarily lost. Explain this phenomenon.
