4\text{ A}

, drifting from the negative terminal toward the positive terminal

Electric current is the time rate of charge transfer (

I = \frac{Q}{t} = \frac{24\text{ C}}{6\text{ s}} = 4\text{ A}

). In electron flow theory, negatively charged electrons are repelled by the negative terminal and flow through the external circuit toward the positive terminal.

A direct-current marine radio circuit contains two resistors connected in parallel: a $10\ \Omega$ resistor and a $40\ \Omega$ resistor. What is the total equivalent resistance of this parallel circuit, in ohms?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

8 Ω

For two resistors in parallel with values of

10\ \Omega

and

40\ \Omega

, the total equivalent resistance is calculated using the product-over-sum formula:

R_{eq} = \frac{R_1 \times R_2}{R_1 + R_2} = \frac{10 \times 40}{10 + 40} = \frac{400}{50} = 8\ \Omega

. In any parallel circuit, the total equivalent resistance is always smaller than the smallest branch resistor.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Select the appropriate formula for calculating the equivalent resistance of two parallel resistors.

R_eq = (R_1 * R_2) / (R_1 + R_2) or 1/R_eq = 1/R_1 + 1/R_2

In parallel circuits, total resistance is found by taking the reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals, which simplifies to the product-over-sum rule for two branches.

2

Substitute the given resistor values (10 Ω and 40 Ω) into the product-over-sum formula.

R_eq = (10 * 40) / (10 + 40) = 400 / 50

Multiplying the branch values gives the numerator, and adding them gives the denominator.

3

Divide the numerator by the denominator to find the equivalent resistance.

R_eq = 8 Ω

400 divided by 50 equals 8, which is less than the smallest branch resistance (10 Ω), confirming the validity of the parallel calculation.

A maintenance kit contains $12$ metric wrenches, $15$ standard wrenches, $9$ screwdrivers, and an unknown number of pliers. If the probability of randomly selecting a screwdriver from the entire kit is $\frac{1}{6}$ , what is the probability of randomly selecting a standard wrench? Express your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $5/18; \frac{5}{18}; 5 / 18$

Cevap

5/18

By using the given probability of selecting a screwdriver (1/6) and the known count of screwdrivers (9), we determine that the total number of items in the kit is 54 (because 9 is 1/6 of 54). The probability of randomly selecting a standard wrench is then the number of standard wrenches (15) divided by the total (54). Simplifying the fraction 15/54 by dividing both numbers by 3 yields 5/18.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up an equation to find the total number of items in the kit.

\frac{9}{\text{Total}} = \frac{1}{6}

The probability of an event is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes. Here, we know the probability and the exact count of screwdrivers.

2

Solve for the total number of items.

\text{Total} = 9 \times 6 = 54

Cross-multiplying isolates the total variable, revealing there are 54 items in the entire kit.

3

Calculate the probability of selecting a standard wrench.

\text{Probability} = \frac{15}{54}

There are 15 standard wrenches out of the 54 total items calculated.

Simplify the fraction.

\frac{15}{54} = \frac{5}{18}

Both 15 and 54 are divisible by 3. Dividing the numerator and denominator by 3 gives the simplest form.

Which of the following occurs when a direct current flows through an insulated wire coiled around a soft-iron core?

The iron core becomes temporarily magnetized and creates an external magnetic field

The iron core stores electrostatic potential energy between the wire turns like a capacitor dielectric

The direct current is automatically converted into an alternating voltage inside the core

The electric current replaces the voltage in the circuit because they represent the same electrical quantity

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The iron core becomes temporarily magnetized and creates an external magnetic field

Cevap

The iron core becomes temporarily magnetized and creates an external magnetic field.

When direct current passes through a coil wrapped around a soft-iron core, the magnetic field generated by the current aligns the magnetic domains in the iron. This creates a temporary magnet (an electromagnet) that produces an external magnetic field as long as current flows.

When the direct current flowing through an energized inductor coil is suddenly interrupted by opening a switch, a high-voltage spark often arcs across the switch contacts. Which electromagnetic effect causes this sudden voltage surge?

Electrostatic discharge released from energy stored in the surrounding electric field

Counter-electromotive force (CEMF) induced by the rapidly collapsing magnetic field

A continuous direct current forcing its way across the newly formed air gap

A sudden surge of forward current resulting from zero resistance across the contacts

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Counter-electromotive force (CEMF) induced by the rapidly collapsing magnetic field

Cevap

Counter-electromotive force (CEMF) induced by the rapidly collapsing magnetic field causes the high-voltage spike.

According to Faraday's law of induction and Lenz's law, when current through an inductor is suddenly cut, the magnetic field around the coil rapidly collapses. Because the rate of change of magnetic flux is extremely high, the coil generates a massive counter-electromotive force (CEMF) or inductive kickback voltage that arcs across the opening switch contacts.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the state of the circuit before and after the switch opens

Steady current established a magnetic field around the inductor coil; opening the switch abruptly drops current to zero.

Inductors store energy in magnetic fields proportional to the current flowing through them.

2

Apply Faraday's and Lenz's laws of electromagnetic induction

The rapid collapse of magnetic flux induces a large counter-electromotive force (

V = -L \frac{\Delta I}{\Delta t}

) across the coil terminals.

A faster change in flux generates a higher induced voltage spike that attempts to keep current flowing.

3

Identify the cause of the arc across the contacts

The induced voltage spike exceeds the dielectric breakdown strength of the small air gap between the opening switch contacts.

This inductive kickback produces a momentary high-voltage spark.

An electronics technician is assembling an energy-storage circuit for an industrial sensor module. The circuit consists of two $100\text{ }\mu\text{F}$ capacitors connected in series, and this entire combination is wired in parallel with a single $150\text{ }\mu\text{F}$ capacitor. What is the total equivalent capacitance of this circuit in microfarads ( $\mu\text{F}$ )?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 200

Cevap

The total equivalent capacitance of the circuit is

200\text{ }\mu\text{F}

.

For capacitors in series, total capacitance decreases and is calculated as

\frac{1}{C_{\text{series}}} = \frac{1}{100\text{ }\mu\text{F}} + \frac{1}{100\text{ }\mu\text{F}} = \frac{2}{100\text{ }\mu\text{F}}

, giving

C_{\text{series}} = 50\text{ }\mu\text{F}

. When this combination is connected in parallel with the

150\text{ }\mu\text{F}

capacitor, parallel capacitances add directly:

C_{\text{total}} = 50\text{ }\mu\text{F} + 150\text{ }\mu\text{F} = 200\text{ }\mu\text{F}

.

\frac{1}{C_{\text{series}}} = \frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2}

.

C_{\text{series}} = 50\text{ }\mu\text{F}

Capacitors in series combine inversely, meaning two identical capacitors in series have half the capacitance of one capacitor.

Add the capacitance of the parallel branch to the series equivalent:

C_{\text{total}} = C_{\text{series}} + C_3

Using the voltage divider formula:

\frac{V_2}{V_{\text{total}}} = \frac{R_2}{R_1 + R_2 + R_3} \implies \frac{12}{36} = \frac{R_2}{400 + R_2} \implies \frac{1}{3} = \frac{R_2}{400 + R_2} \implies 400 + R_2 = 3R_2 \implies 2R_2 = 400 \implies R_2 = 200\ \Omega

Cevap

Electron Flow Theory matches the movement of negative charge carriers from negative to positive; Conventional Current Theory matches the historical assumption of flow from positive to negative; Electric Current matches the rate of charge flow over time; One Ampere matches one coulomb of charge per second.

Each electrical term accurately maps to its standard scientific definition: Electron Flow describes negative electrons drifting toward the positive terminal; Conventional Current describes the standard positive-to-negative circuit model; Electric Current represents the rate of charge flow (

I = Q/t

); and One Ampere specifically equals one coulomb passing a given point in one second (

1\text{ C/s}

).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the physical reality of electron drift versus historical convention.

Electrons are negatively charged, so they drift from negative to positive (Electron Flow). Conventional current historically assumes flow from positive to negative.

Clear differentiation between historical convention and physical subatomic movement is foundational in electrical fundamentals.

2

Define the quantity of electric current.

Current (

I

) represents the rate of charge (

Q

) flow per unit time (

t

), yielding

I = \frac{Q}{t}

.

Current measures the flow rate of charge through a conductor, not electrical pressure or potential difference.

3

Relate the ampere to fundamental SI electrical units.

1\text{ ampere} = 1\text{ coulomb per second}

(

1\text{ A} = 1\text{ C/s}

).

The ampere quantifies current flow as a unit of coulombs transferred over time in seconds.

Anahtar Kavram

Fundamental definitions of electric current, charge rate, ampere units, and directional flow models.

Alternatif Yöntem

Recall the fundamental dimensional relationships: Current is

I = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t}

, so its unit (

1\text{ A}

) must be equal to

\frac{1\text{ C}}{1\text{ s}}

. Then remember that because electrons possess a negative charge, like charges repel and opposite charges attract, forcing them to move away from the negative terminal toward the positive terminal.

Cevap

Electrical Resistance matches the total opposition of a specific component in ohms; Material Resistivity matches the intrinsic geometry-independent material property; American Wire Gauge matches the inverse sizing scale where smaller numbers mean thicker wire; and Positive Temperature Coefficient matches the increase in resistance as temperature rises.

Each electrical concept matches its core definition: Electrical Resistance (

R

) is the total opposition to current flow in ohms; Material Resistivity (

\rho

) is the intrinsic material property; American Wire Gauge (AWG) is the inverse sizing standard where smaller numbers indicate thicker conductors; and a Positive Temperature Coefficient defines the increase of resistance with rising temperature.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Distinguish between total electrical resistance and intrinsic material resistivity.

Electrical resistance (

R

) is the overall opposition in a specific conductor measured in ohms (

\Omega

), while resistivity (

\rho

) is the inherent property of the material itself.

Total resistance depends on both the material's resistivity and its physical dimensions according to

R = \rho \frac{L}{A}

.

2

Analyze standard conductor sizing and thermal behavior principles.

AWG numbers inversely scale with conductor diameter (smaller number = thicker wire), and a positive temperature coefficient means resistance rises with heat.

Wire gauge dictates cross-sectional area, and thermal excitation in metals increases electron collisions, raising resistance.

3\ \Omega

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $4\ \Omega$

Cevap

4\ \Omega

For parallel circuits containing equal resistors, the total equivalent resistance is found by dividing the individual resistance value by the number of parallel branches (

R_{\text{total}} = R / N

). Here,

12\ \Omega / 3 = 4\ \Omega

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the number of parallel branches and branch resistance

Branch resistance

R = 12\ \Omega

, number of branches

N = 3

When all resistors in parallel have identical resistance values, the equal-resistor shortcut formula can be directly applied.

2

Calculate total equivalent resistance using

R_{\text{total}} = \frac{R}{N}

R_{\text{total}} = \frac{12\ \Omega}{3} = 4\ \Omega

Connecting resistors in parallel provides multiple parallel paths for current, reducing the total equivalent resistance below any individual branch.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

Each given set of circuit parameters matches the direct algebraic form of Watt's Law designed for those specific variables: Voltage and Current to

P = V \times I

; Current and Resistance to

P = I^2 \times R

; Voltage and Resistance to

P = \frac{V^2}{R}

; and Power and Voltage to

I = \frac{P}{V}

.

Each match correctly pairs the given known variables with the exact Watt's Law equation variant required to solve directly for the unknown quantity without needing extraneous calculation steps.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the base definition of electrical power in terms of voltage and current.

P = V \times I

Power in watts equals electromotive force in volts multiplied by electron current flow in amperes.

2

Derive the power formula when only current and resistance are given using Ohm's Law (

V = I \times R

).

P = (I \times R) \times I = I^2 \times R

Replacing voltage with the product of current and resistance calculates power without needing voltage explicitly.

3

Derive the power formula when only voltage and resistance are given using Ohm's Law (

I = \frac{V}{R}

).

P = V \times \left(\frac{V}{R}\right) = \frac{V^2}{R}

Replacing current with voltage divided by resistance calculates power without needing current explicitly.

4

Rearrange the primary power formula to solve for current when power and voltage are known.

I = \frac{P}{V}

Dividing both sides of

P = V \times I

by voltage isolates the current parameter.

Anahtar Kavram

Watt's Law and its derived variations relate electrical power (

P

), voltage (

V

), current (

I

), and resistance (

R

).
