A direct current (DC) emergency lighting circuit operates from a 28 V28\text{ V} power supply. An in-line ammeter measures a steady current flow of 350 mA350\text{ mA} through the circuit. What is the total electrical resistance of the lighting circuit?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 80 Ω80\text{ }\Omega

Cevap

The total electrical resistance of the lighting circuit is 80 Ω80\text{ }\Omega.
According to Ohm's law, resistance is found by dividing voltage by current (R=V/IR = V / I). Converting 350 mA350\text{ mA} into amperes yields 0.35 A0.35\text{ A}. Dividing 28 V28\text{ V} by 0.35 A0.35\text{ A} gives the correct value of 80 Ω80\text{ }\Omega.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the current measurement from milliamperes to amperes.
I=350 mA=3501000 A=0.35 AI = 350\text{ mA} = \frac{350}{1000}\text{ A} = 0.35\text{ A}
Standard Ohm's law calculations require current to be in base SI units (amperes) to produce resistance in ohms.
2
Rearrange Ohm's law (V=I×RV = I \times R) to solve for resistance (RR).
R=VIR = \frac{V}{I}
Resistance equals the electromotive force (voltage) across the circuit divided by the resulting current flow.
3
Substitute the known voltage and converted current values into the rearranged formula.
R=28 V0.35 A=280035 Ω=80 ΩR = \frac{28\text{ V}}{0.35\text{ A}} = \frac{2800}{35}\text{ }\Omega = 80\text{ }\Omega
Dividing 28 V28\text{ V} by 0.35 A0.35\text{ A} determines the load resistance in ohms.

A technician is configuring a PNP bipolar junction transistor to operate as a switch. To forward-bias the base-emitter junction and turn the transistor ON, what electrical condition must be established at the base terminal relative to the emitter?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The base voltage must be lower (more negative) than the emitter voltage.

Cevap

The base voltage must be lower (more negative) than the emitter voltage.
For a PNP bipolar junction transistor to turn ON, its base-emitter P-N junction must be forward-biased. Because the emitter is P-type semiconductor material and the base is N-type material, the base terminal must be held at a lower (more negative) electrical potential than the emitter terminal (typically by at least 0.7 V0.7\text{ V} in standard silicon transistors).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the transistor polarity and internal semiconductor structure.
A PNP transistor consists of an N-type base sandwiched between a P-type emitter and a P-type collector.
Understanding layer material types determines the required voltage polarities across the junctions.
2
Determine the biasing requirement for the base-emitter junction to allow conduction.
To forward-bias a P-N junction (P-type emitter to N-type base), the P-type region must be more positive than the N-type region.
Current can only flow across a forward-biased junction when the appropriate potential difference overcomes the barrier voltage (typically 0.7 V0.7\text{ V} for silicon).
3
Formulate the necessary base terminal condition relative to the emitter.
The base voltage must be pulled lower (more negative) relative to the emitter voltage, allowing conventional current to flow out of the base.
This establishes forward bias at the base-emitter junction, switching the PNP transistor ON.

Cevap: 33 V33\text{ V}

Cevap

33 V33\text{ V}
In a series circuit, total equivalent resistance is the sum of all individual resistances (18 Ω+22 Ω+40 Ω=80 Ω18\ \Omega + 22\ \Omega + 40\ \Omega = 80\ \Omega). Applying Ohm's Law with a 120 V120\text{ V} supply gives a uniform loop current of 1.5 A1.5\text{ A} (120 V/80 Ω120\text{ V} / 80\ \Omega). Multiplying this current by the resistance of the specified component yields 1.5 A×22 Ω=33 V1.5\text{ A} \times 22\ \Omega = 33\text{ V}.

1
Calculate the total series resistance (RTR_T) by summing individual resistances.
RT=R1+R2+R3=18 Ω+22 Ω+40 Ω=80 ΩR_T = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 = 18\ \Omega + 22\ \Omega + 40\ \Omega = 80\ \Omega
In a series circuit, total resistance equals the sum of all individual resistances in the loop.
2
Determine the total circuit current (ITI_T) using Ohm's Law (I=V/RI = V / R).
IT=VTRT=120 V80 Ω=1.5 AI_T = \frac{V_T}{R_T} = \frac{120\text{ V}}{80\ \Omega} = 1.5\text{ A}
Current remains constant through every component in a single continuous series loop.

Calculate the voltage drop (V2V_2) across the target resistor (R2=22 ΩR_2 = 22\ \Omega) using V=I×RV = I \times R.
V2=IT×R2=1.5 A×22 Ω=33 VV_2 = I_T \times R_2 = 1.5\text{ A} \times 22\ \Omega = 33\text{ V}

Fast-acting fuse matches with melting an internal sacrificial element almost instantaneously during overcurrent; Slow-blow fuse matches with tolerating momentary startup inrush currents while melting under sustained overload; Metal-oxide varistor (MOV) matches with clamping transient high-voltage spikes by rapidly dropping resistance; Bimetallic thermal circuit breaker matches with using heat-induced mechanical deflection of bonded metals to trip a reusable switch.
Each protective component operates on a specific physical mechanism: fast-acting fuses melt rapidly to safeguard delicate electronics; slow-blow fuses incorporate intentional thermal delays to permit harmless inrush currents; MOVs clamp high-voltage spikes by conducting heavily above their rated clamping voltage; and thermal circuit breakers employ bimetallic strip bending to offer resettable overcurrent interruption.

Fast-acting fuses, slow-blow fuses, and thermal circuit breakers protect against excessive current, whereas metal-oxide varistors protect against transient high-voltage surges.
Categorizing devices by their primary protection role prevents confusing overvoltage suppressors with overcurrent interrupters.
2
Distinguish between the response speeds and mechanisms of the overcurrent protective devices.
Fast-acting fuses blow instantly; slow-blow fuses accommodate brief inrush surges; thermal breakers provide resettable mechanical tripping via bimetallic heating.
Different circuit loads, such as inductive motors versus sensitive solid-state electronics, require tailored opening times and reset capabilities.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 36 V36\text{ V}

Cevap

36 V36\text{ V}
In a battery bank containing series strings wired in parallel, each series branch sums the voltages of its three 12 V12\text{ V} batteries to produce 36 V36\text{ V} (12 V+12 V+12 V=36 V12\text{ V} + 12\text{ V} + 12\text{ V} = 36\text{ V}). Connecting two identical 36 V36\text{ V} strings in parallel keeps the potential difference across the output terminals at 36 V36\text{ V} while doubling current capacity.

When a freewheeling (flyback) diode is installed across an inductive DC relay coil to suppress transient voltage spikes, its cathode must be connected to the positive supply rail so that the diode remains reverse-biased during normal energized operation and becomes forward-biased only when the collapsing magnetic field inverts the coil's terminal polarity.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: True

Cevap

True: In a flyback protection configuration, connecting the diode's cathode to the positive supply rail keeps it reverse-biased during steady-state energization, while allowing inductive collapse back-EMF to forward-bias the diode and clamp harmful voltage transients.
The statement is true because connecting the cathode of a freewheeling diode to the positive DC rail holds the diode in reverse bias during normal circuit operation, preventing unwanted conduction. When the control switch opens, the inductor's collapsing magnetic field inverts the terminal voltage polarity (back-EMF), which makes the anode positive relative to the cathode, placing the diode in forward bias to clamp voltage spikes and dissipate stored inductive energy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the biasing condition of the diode during normal steady-state energization of the inductive relay.
With the cathode tied to the positive DC supply rail and the anode connected to the switched low side, the diode is reverse-biased and draws only negligible leakage current, allowing full operating voltage across the coil.
A semiconductor diode conducts only when its anode is positive relative to its cathode; applying a higher potential to the cathode establishes reverse bias.
2
Determine the electrical response of the relay coil when the control switch opens to de-energize the circuit.
In accordance with Lenz's Law, the collapsing magnetic field induces a high-voltage back-EMF across the coil that reverses the terminal polarity, driving the switched terminal significantly positive relative to the supply rail.
An inductor opposes instantaneous changes in current by reversing its induced terminal voltage.
3
Evaluate the diode's conduction state during the induced back-EMF transient.
The reversed polarity places a higher positive voltage at the diode's anode than at its cathode, forward-biasing the diode to create a circulating discharge path that clamps the voltage spike to approximately 0.7 V0.7\text{ V} above the supply rail.
Forward conduction through the diode safely dissipates the stored magnetic energy and protects switching components from overvoltage breakdown.

The correct pairings are: Normally Open (NO) Relay Contact matches with 'Remains open to block current when de-energized, closing to complete the circuit only when the coil is energized'; Normally Closed (NC) Relay Contact matches with 'Maintains continuity in the unpowered resting state and opens to interrupt current when the relay coil is energized'; Single-Pole, Double-Throw (SPDT) Switch matches with 'Routes current from a single common input terminal to either of two separate output paths depending on the actuator position'; and Double-Pole, Single-Throw (DPST) Switch matches with 'Simultaneously opens or closes two separate, electrically isolated circuits using a single mechanical actuator'.
Each contact type is paired based on standard electrical conventions: Normally Open contacts require coil excitation to establish continuity; Normally Closed contacts conduct by default until coil energization breaks continuity; SPDT switches route one source line between two alternate destinations; and DPST switches control two isolated lines in tandem.

2
Calculate the branch current using Ohm's law.
I2=36 V9 Ω=4 AI_2 = \frac{36\text{ V}}{9\ \Omega} = 4\text{ A}.

Cevap

The nominal resistance is 100 kΩ100\text{ k}\Omega and the minimum allowable resistance is 90 kΩ90\text{ k}\Omega.
According to the electronic color code system, Brown represents 1 and Black represents 0, forming the base number 10. The third band, Yellow, represents a multiplier of 10410^4 (1000010{}000), giving a nominal resistance of 10×10000=100000 Ω=100 kΩ10 \times 10{}000 = 100{}000\ \Omega = 100\text{ k}\Omega. The fourth band, Silver, designates a ±10%\pm 10\% tolerance. Ten percent of 100 kΩ100\text{ k}\Omega is 10 kΩ10\text{ k}\Omega, meaning the minimum allowable resistance under tolerance is 100 kΩ−10 kΩ=90 kΩ100\text{ k}\Omega - 10\text{ k}\Omega = 90\text{ k}\Omega (and the maximum is 110 kΩ110\text{ k}\Omega).

Decode the significant digits from the first two color bands.
Band 1 (Brown) = 11, Band 2 (Black) = 00, giving significant digits 1010.

The third band determines the power of ten by which the significant digits are multiplied.
3
Determine the tolerance percentage from the fourth color band.
Band 4 (Silver) = ±10%\pm 10\% tolerance.
Silver indicates a manufacturing variation of plus or minus ten percent from nominal value.
4
Calculate the minimum allowable resistance limit.
Tolerance amount =100 kΩ×0.10=10 kΩ= 100\text{ k}\Omega \times 0.10 = 10\text{ k}\Omega. Minimum resistance =100 kΩ−10 kΩ=90 kΩ= 100\text{ k}\Omega - 10\text{ k}\Omega = 90\text{ k}\Omega.

Vp=30 VV_p = 30\text{ V}, Np=200 turnsN_p = 200\text{ turns}, Ns=800 turnsN_s = 800\text{ turns}, using VsVp=NsNp\frac{V_s}{V_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p}.
In an ideal transformer, the ratio of the secondary voltage to the primary voltage equals the ratio of secondary turns to primary turns.
2
Calculate the turns ratio (Ns/NpN_s / N_p).
800200=4\frac{800}{200} = 4.
Finding the ratio simplifies multiplying the primary voltage to determine secondary voltage.

Cevap

Silver, followed by Intrinsic Germanium, Intrinsic Silicon, and finally Mica.
Electrical conductivity is determined by the density of free charge carriers available in a material's conduction band. Silver is an excellent metallic conductor with free electrons that readily drift under an applied electric field. Germanium and silicon are Group IV semiconductors; because germanium has a narrower forbidden bandgap (0.67 eV0.67\text{ eV}) than silicon (1.12 eV1.12\text{ eV}), more electron-hole pairs are thermally excited across the gap at room temperature, making germanium more conductive than silicon. Mica is an inorganic insulator with tightly held valence electrons and a very wide forbidden energy gap, giving it the lowest electrical conductivity in the sequence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the metallic conductor
Silver is identified as the conductor with the highest concentration of free valence electrons.
Metals have overlapping valence and conduction bands, providing high electrical conductivity.

Intrinsic Germanium (Eg≈0.67 eVE_g \approx 0.67\text{ eV}) has higher conductivity than Intrinsic Silicon (Eg≈1.12 eVE_g \approx 1.12\text{ eV}).
A smaller bandgap allows more valence electrons to bridge into the conduction band at room temperature.
3
Identify the electrical insulator
Mica is placed last with the lowest electrical conductivity.

Cevap

The internal metal element overheats and melts, creating an open circuit that permanently stops current flow.
A fuse is a one-time sacrificial protective device wired in series with a load. When the circuit current (10 A10\text{ A}) exceeds the rated threshold (3 A3\text{ A}), resistive heating (I2RI^2R) rapidly raises the temperature of the internal metal link past its melting point. The link separates, creating an open circuit (infinite resistance) that permanently halts current flow to prevent wiring damage or fire.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the type and rating of the protective device.
The device is a standard cartridge fuse rated for 3 A3\text{ A}.
Determining the device type establishes whether it is a one-time sacrificial device or a resettable mechanism.
2
Compare the actual fault current to the device's rated current.
The fault current of 10 A10\text{ A} significantly exceeds the 3 A3\text{ A} rating.
Current passing through the fuse element generates heat proportional to I2RI^2R (P=I2RP = I^2R).
3
Determine the physical response of the fuse element under this overcurrent condition.
The excessive current heats the thin metal wire or strip beyond its melting point, burning it open.
Melting breaks electrical continuity, producing an open circuit with infinite resistance that stops all downstream current.

An industrial controller module requires a total electromotive force (EMF) of 0.12 kV0.12\text{ kV} for its backup power rail. If standard 1.5 V1.5\text{ V} alkaline cells are connected in series-aiding to supply the rail, how many cells are required?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 80

Cevap

80 cells
The total requirement is 0.12 kV0.12\text{ kV}, which equals 120 V120\text{ V}. Since series-aiding cells add their electromotive forces directly, dividing the total required voltage of 120 V120\text{ V} by 1.5 V1.5\text{ V} per cell gives exactly 8080 cells.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the required electromotive force from kilovolts (kV) to standard volts (V)
0.12 kV×1000=120 V0.12\text{ kV} \times 1000 = 120\text{ V}
The prefix kilo- denotes a multiplier of 10001000, so the potential difference must be converted to base units to match individual cell ratings.
2
Calculate the number of series cells needed by dividing total EMF by the EMF of a single cell
n=120 V1.5 V/cell=80 cellsn = \frac{120\text{ V}}{1.5\text{ V/cell}} = 80\text{ cells}
When electrical cells are connected in series-aiding configuration, their individual voltages add directly (Vtotal=n×VcellV_{\text{total}} = n \times V_{\text{cell}}).

An aircraft cockpit lighting circuit is connected to a 24 V24\text{ V} direct current (DC) power source. The circuit consists of three loads connected in series: a 15 Ω15\ \Omega panel lamp, a 25 Ω25\ \Omega dimming rheostat, and a 20 Ω20\ \Omega ballast resistor. What is the voltage drop across the 25 Ω25\ \Omega dimming rheostat in volts?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 10

Cevap

The voltage drop across the 25 Ω25\ \Omega dimming rheostat is 10 V10\text{ V}.
In a series circuit, the total resistance is the sum of all individual resistances: 15 Ω+25 Ω+20 Ω=60 Ω15\ \Omega + 25\ \Omega + 20\ \Omega = 60\ \Omega. Applying Ohm's Law to the entire circuit gives a current of 24 V/60 Ω=0.4 A24\text{ V} / 60\ \Omega = 0.4\text{ A}. Because current is constant throughout a series circuit, the voltage drop across the 25 Ω25\ \Omega rheostat is 0.4 A×25 Ω=10 V0.4\text{ A} \times 25\ \Omega = 10\text{ V}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total series resistance (RTR_T) of the circuit.
RT=15 Ω+25 Ω+20 Ω=60 ΩR_T = 15\ \Omega + 25\ \Omega + 20\ \Omega = 60\ \Omega
In a series circuit, total resistance equals the algebraic sum of all individual series resistances.
2
Calculate the common series current (II) flowing through the circuit.
I=VTRT=24 V60 Ω=0.4 AI = \frac{V_T}{R_T} = \frac{24\text{ V}}{60\ \Omega} = 0.4\text{ A}
Ohm's Law (I=VRI = \frac{V}{R}) relates the total supply voltage to the total circuit resistance.
3
Calculate the voltage drop (V2V_2) across the 25 Ω25\ \Omega resistor.
V2=I×R2=0.4 A×25 Ω=10 VV_2 = I \times R_2 = 0.4\text{ A} \times 25\ \Omega = 10\text{ V}
Current is constant throughout all components in a series circuit, so the individual voltage drop is the product of loop current and component resistance.

Anahtar Kavram

In a series circuit, total resistance is the sum of individual resistances (RT=R1+R2+⋯+RnR_T = R_1 + R_2 + \dots + R_n), current is identical through all components (IT=I1=I2=⋯=InI_T = I_1 = I_2 = \dots = I_n), and individual voltage drops are directly proportional to component resistance (Vn=I×RnV_n = I \times R_n).

Two resistors with values of 12 Ω12\ \Omega and 6 Ω6\ \Omega are wired in parallel across a circuit board. What is the total equivalent resistance of this combination?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4 Ω4\ \Omega

Cevap

4 Ω4\ \Omega
For two resistors in parallel, the equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing their product by their sum: 12×612+6=7218=4 Ω\frac{12 \times 6}{12 + 6} = \frac{72}{18} = 4\ \Omega. In parallel circuits, the equivalent resistance is always lower than any single branch resistance.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the given branch resistances and select the parallel equivalent resistance formula.
R1=12 ΩR_1 = 12\ \Omega, R2=6 ΩR_2 = 6\ \Omega, and Req=R1×R2R1+R2R_{eq} = \frac{R_1 \times R_2}{R_1 + R_2}
The product-over-sum formula determines the total equivalent resistance of two parallel branches.
2
Calculate the product and sum of the two resistors, then divide.
Req=12×612+6=7218=4 ΩR_{eq} = \frac{12 \times 6}{12 + 6} = \frac{72}{18} = 4\ \Omega
Completing the arithmetic yields the equivalent resistance, which must be less than the smallest individual branch.

Anahtar Kavram

Total equivalent resistance in a parallel circuit is always less than the lowest individual branch resistance and can be calculated using the reciprocal or product-over-sum formula.

An aircraft avionics sensor circuit is powered by a 28 V28\text{ V} direct current (DC) power source connected in series with three resistors: R1=30 ΩR_1 = 30\ \Omega, R2=45 ΩR_2 = 45\ \Omega, and an unknown resistor R3R_3. A technician measures the voltage drop across R2R_2 and finds it to be 9 V9\text{ V}. Based on these circuit measurements, what are the total loop current and the resistance value of R3R_3?

Aşağıdaki boşlukları doldurun

The total current flowing through the circuit is A, and the resistance value of R3R_3 is Ω\Omega.
Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The circuit current is 0.2 A and the resistance of resistor R3 is 65 ohms.
Because the circuit components are connected in series, the current flowing through R2R_2 (I=9 V/45 Ω=0.2 AI = 9\text{ V} / 45\ \Omega = 0.2\text{ A}) is the exact same current passing through the entire loop. Applying Ohm's Law to the full circuit gives a total resistance of RT=28 V/0.2 A=140 ΩR_T = 28\text{ V} / 0.2\text{ A} = 140\ \Omega. Subtracting the known resistances (30 Ω+45 Ω=75 Ω30\ \Omega + 45\ \Omega = 75\ \Omega) leaves 65 Ω65\ \Omega for R3R_3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the constant loop current using the known values for resistor R2R_2
I=V2R2=9 V45 Ω=0.2 AI = \frac{V_2}{R_2} = \frac{9\text{ V}}{45\ \Omega} = 0.2\text{ A}
In a series circuit, current is identical through every component.
2
Calculate the total equivalent resistance of the entire series circuit using Ohm's Law and the source voltage
RT=VsourceI=28 V0.2 A=140 ΩR_T = \frac{V_{\text{source}}}{I} = \frac{28\text{ V}}{0.2\text{ A}} = 140\ \Omega
Total circuit resistance equals the total applied voltage divided by the common series current.
3
Determine the resistance of R3R_3 by subtracting known series resistances from total resistance
R3=RT−(R1+R2)=140 Ω−(30 Ω+45 Ω)=140 Ω−75 Ω=65 ΩR_3 = R_T - (R_1 + R_2) = 140\ \Omega - (30\ \Omega + 45\ \Omega) = 140\ \Omega - 75\ \Omega = 65\ \Omega
Total series resistance is the direct algebraic sum of all individual resistances in the loop.

Anahtar Kavram

In a single-loop series circuit, current is constant at all points (IT=I1=I2=I3I_T = I_1 = I_2 = I_3), and total circuit resistance is the sum of all individual resistances (RT=R1+R2+R3R_T = R_1 + R_2 + R_3).
