In the circuit shown in Fig., the current in the 20.0-V battery is 5.00 A in the direction shown and the voltage across the 8.00-ohm resistor is 16.0 V, with the lower end of the resistor at higher potential. Find

(a) the emf (including its polarity) of the battery X.

(b) the current Ithrough the 200.0 V battery (including its direction).

(c) the resistance R.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The emf (including its polarity) of the battery X is 186V.

(b) The current Ithrough the 200.0 V battery is3.00A and its direction is given below.

(c) The resistance Ris 20.0

Step by step solution

01

Calculating Emf

Consider the following circuit, where1=20.0 V, 2=200 V, R鈧=8.00 , R鈧= 18.0 , R3= 30.0and R4=20.0 . The current in the 20.0 V battery is I= 5.00 A in the direction shown and the voltage across the R鈧 resistor is V R鈧 = 16.0 V, with the lower end of the resistor at higher potential.

(a) First we need to find the emf , to do that we simplify the resistors networks, as shown in the second figure, we know that the resistance add in series, and the reciprocal of the resistance add in parallel, so we have,

1R=1R3+1R4=130.0+120.0=112.0R=12.0 (1)

and the resistance of the two resistors each with the resistance of R is R/2 Now we apply the loop rule to the left loop (counterclockwise), so we can write (note that we have assumed that the lower end of the battery is the negative pole, if we get a positive value then our assumption will be correct if negative we must reverse its polarity),

-VR1-I(R'+R2)-1=0

or,

=VR1+I(R'+R2)+1

substitute to get

=16.0V+(5.00A)(12.0+18.0)+20.0V=186V

=186V

with the upper terminal being the positive

(b) From the junction rule, we can write,

I2=I-I1

we know the current I, the current I1 can be determined from the resistor R1 that is I1=VR1/R1, thus,

I2=I-VR1R1

substitute to get,

localid="1668337436073" I2=5.00A-16.0V8.00=3.00AI2=3.00A'

02

Calculating resistance and direction of current

(c)Now we need to find the resistance R and apply the loop rule to the right loop (counterclockwise), so we get,

2I2R2+VR1=0R=22+2VR12I2

substitute to get,

R=2(200V)+2(16.0V)2(186V)3.00A=20.0R=20.0

Questions: When a thunderstorm is approaching, sailors at sea sometimes observe a phenomenon called 鈥淪t. Elmo鈥檚 fire,鈥 a bluish flickering light at the tips of masts. What causes this? Why does it occur at the tips of masts? Why is the effect most pronounced when the masts are wet? (Hint: Seawater is a good conductor of electricity.)

(See Discussion Question Q25.14.) An ideal ammeter A is placed in a circuit with a battery and a light bulb as shown in Fig. Q25.15a, and the ammeter reading is noted. The circuit is then reconnected as in Fig. Q25.15b, so that the positions of the ammeter and light bulb are reversed. (a) How does the ammeter reading in the situation shown in Fig. Q25.15a compare to the reading in the situation shown in Fig. Q25.15b? Explain your reasoning. (b) In which situation does the light bulb glow more brightly? Explain your reasoning.

You connect a battery, resistor, and capacitor as in Fig. 26.20a, where R = 12.0 鈩 and C = 5.00 x 10-6 F. The switch S is closed at t = 0. When the current in the circuit has a magnitude of 3.00 A, the charge on the capacitor is 40.0 x 10-6 C. (a) What is the emf of the battery? (b) At what time t after the switch is closed is the charge on the capacitor equal to 40.0 x 10-6 C? (c) When the current has magnitude 3.00 A, at what rate is energy being (i) stored in the capacitor, (ii) supplied by the battery

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?

An idealized voltmeter is connected across the terminals of a15.0-Vbattery, and arole="math" localid="1655719696009" 75.0- appliance is also connected across its terminals. If the voltmeter reads11.9V (a) how much power is being dissipated by the appliance, and (b) what is the internal resistance of the battery?
