A) The current in the circuit is given by E=13A ,VR1=33.33V,VR3=16.66V,VR2=0

B) The total current in the circuit is given bylocalid="1664254117170" role="math" l=513A,V1=38.46V,i1=0.385A,V2=0,i2=0.154A,V3=11.54V

Step by step solution

01

To find current and voltage in each ammeter and voltmeter just after switch S is closed

When the switch is just closed, the inductor opposes the sudden change in the current. Initially current in the circuit is zero and it will remain zero just after the switch is closed. Hence, inductorLact as an open circuit. Now,R1andR3becomes in series connection. So, the current in the circuit is given by E=13A

The voltage across R1 is given byVR1=33.33V

The voltage across R3 is given by VR3=16.66V

The voltage across R2 is VR2=0

02

To find current and voltage in each ammeter and voltmeter after S has been closed a very long time

When the switch is closed for a long time, the current in the circuit reached the equilibrium state and the inductor acts as a short-circuited. The equivalent resistance of the circuit is given by Req=R1+R2×R3R2+R3=100+75×5075+50=130 Ω

The total current in the circuit is given byl=513A

The voltage V1 is V1=38.40V,

The current through the resistor R1 isi1=0.385A

The inductor acts as a short circuit. So, the voltage across it is zero.V2=0

The current through R2 is, i2=0.154A

The voltage V3is,V3=11.54V

The current through ammeter A3 isi3=0.231A

The voltage across R3 isV4=11.54V

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a power supply that maintains a fixed potential difference between the plates. (a) If a sheet of dielectric is then slid between the plates, what happens to (i) the electric field between the plates, (ii) the magnitude of charge on each plate, and (iii) the energy stored in the capacitor? (b) Now suppose that before the dielectric is inserted, the charged capacitor is disconnected from the power supply. In this case, what happens to (i) the electric field between the plates, (ii) the magnitude of charge on each plate, and (iii) the energy stored in the capacitor? Explain any differences between the two situations.
