Zorluk: ZorOhm's Law

A direct current (DC) relay coil with a fixed resistance draws 30 mA30\text{ mA} when connected across an 18 V18\text{ V} power supply. When the same relay coil is connected to a different DC power supply, an ammeter measures a current flow of 75 mA75\text{ mA} through the coil. What is the voltage of the second power supply?

  1. A
    7.2 V7.2\text{ V}
  2. 45 V45\text{ V}Cevap
  3. C
    4.5 V4.5\text{ V}
  4. D
    75 V75\text{ V}

Cevap

45 V45\text{ V}
The correct answer is determined by using Ohm's law (R=VIR = \frac{V}{I}) to find the coil's fixed resistance from the initial state (R=18 V0.030 A=600 ΩR = \frac{18\text{ V}}{0.030\text{ A}} = 600\,\Omega) and then determining the new voltage (V=0.075 A×600 Ω=45 VV = 0.075\text{ A} \times 600\,\Omega = 45\text{ V}).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the initial current from milliamperes to amperes and calculate the resistance of the relay coil using Ohm's law (R=VIR = \frac{V}{I}).
I1=30 mA=0.030 AI_1 = 30\text{ mA} = 0.030\text{ A}; R=18 V0.030 A=600 ΩR = \frac{18\text{ V}}{0.030\text{ A}} = 600\,\Omega
The resistance of the coil remains constant regardless of the applied supply voltage.

Convert the second current reading to amperes and calculate the new supply voltage using Ohm's law (V=I×RV = I \times R).
I2=75 mA=0.075 AI_2 = 75\text{ mA} = 0.075\text{ A}; V2=0.075 A×600 Ω=45 VV_2 = 0.075\text{ A} \times 600\,\Omega = 45\text{ V}
Ohm's law states that the potential difference across a resistor equals current multiplied by resistance.
