.

In a parallel circuit, each identical branch draws an equal share of the total current. With a total current of

4\text{ A}

split evenly across two identical paths, each transmitter draws

2\text{ A}

. Applying Ohm's law (

R = \frac{V}{I}

) across one branch with the full

36\text{ V}

potential difference yields

R = \frac{36\text{ V}}{2\text{ A}} = 18\,\Omega

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the total equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit using Ohm's Law.

R_{\text{eq}} = \frac{V}{I_{\text{total}}} = \frac{36\text{ V}}{4\text{ A}} = 9\,\Omega

The total resistance of the entire circuit relates the total supply voltage to the total current drawn from the battery bank.

2

Determine the resistance of each individual transmitter from the parallel combination formula.

\frac{1}{R_{\text{eq}}} = \frac{1}{R} + \frac{1}{R} = \frac{2}{R} \implies R = 2 \times R_{\text{eq}} = 2 \times 9\,\Omega = 18\,\Omega

When two identical resistors are connected in parallel, their equivalent resistance is equal to half the resistance of a single component.

I_{\text{branch}} = \frac{4\text{ A}}{2} = 2\text{ A}

A workshop exhaust fan is connected to a $120\text{ V}$ power supply and consumes $480\text{ W}$ of electric power during normal operation. What is the effective electrical resistance of the fan motor, in ohms ( $\Omega$ )?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 30

Cevap

The effective electrical resistance of the fan motor is

30\,\Omega

.

To find the resistance from voltage and power, determine the current using

I = \frac{P}{V} = \frac{480\text{ W}}{120\text{ V}} = 4\text{ A}

, then use Ohm's law

R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{120\text{ V}}{4\text{ A}} = 30\,\Omega

. Alternatively, using

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

yields

\frac{120^2}{480} = \frac{14400}{480} = 30\,\Omega

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the electric current flowing through the fan motor using the electrical power formula

P = V \times I

.

I = \frac{P}{V} = \frac{480\text{ W}}{120\text{ V}} = 4\text{ A}

Electric power equals the product of voltage and current, so dividing total wattage by applied voltage determines circuit current.

2

Calculate the resistance using Ohm's law rearranged as

R = \frac{V}{I}

.

R = \frac{120\text{ V}}{4\text{ A}} = 30\,\Omega

Resistance represents the opposition to current flow and is found by dividing the applied voltage by the circuit current.

In an industrial facility, three identical light fixtures are connected in parallel across a constant $120\text{ V}$ electrical line. If one of the light fixtures burns out and creates an open circuit in its branch, what will happen to the remaining light fixtures and the total current drawn from the line?

All remaining fixtures go out immediately, and the total current drawn from the line drops to zero.

The remaining fixtures stay lit at the same brightness, and the total current drawn from the line decreases.

The remaining fixtures glow noticeably brighter, and the total current drawn from the line increases.

The remaining fixtures become dimmer, while the total current drawn from the line remains unchanged.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The remaining fixtures stay lit at the same brightness, and the total current drawn from the line decreases.

Cevap

The remaining fixtures stay lit at the same brightness, and the total current drawn from the line decreases.

In a parallel circuit, each device is connected across the full source voltage independently. When one fixture burns out, the voltage across the remaining fixtures remains at

120\text{ V}

, so their current and brightness stay the same. However, because the total current is the sum of the branch currents (

I_{\text{total}} = I_1 + I_2 + I_3

), losing one branch reduces the total current supplied by the line from three branch currents down to two.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze voltage across individual branches in a parallel circuit

Each remaining fixture continues to experience the full

120\text{ V}

line voltage.

In a parallel circuit, every branch is connected directly across the power source, so removing or opening one branch does not alter the voltage applied to the others.

2

Determine current and power dissipation for each remaining fixture

Individual current

I = \frac{V}{R}

and power

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

remain constant, keeping brightness unchanged.

Since both the resistance of each remaining fixture and the supply voltage remain unchanged, the power output of each active lamp does not change.

3

Calculate the effect on total circuit current

Total current drops from

I_{\text{total}} = 3I_{\text{branch}}

to

I_{\text{total}} = 2I_{\text{branch}}

.

Total current in a parallel circuit is the sum of the individual branch currents (

I_{\text{total}} = I_1 + I_2 + I_3

). When one branch opens, its current drops to zero, reducing the total current drawn from the supply.

Each term corresponds directly to its foundational physical definition in electromagnetism: Electric Current is the rate of charge flow (

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

), Voltage is the work/energy per unit charge (

V = \frac{W}{Q}

), Resistance is the opposition to charge movement (

R = \frac{V}{I}

), and Electrical Power is the time rate of total energy transfer (

P = VI

).

1

Determine the physical definition of Electric Current.

Electric current is the flow of electric charge per unit time (

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

), which matches 'The rate at which electric charge flows through a cross-sectional area of a conductor over time'.

Current measures how many coulombs of charge pass through a point each second.

2

Determine the physical definition of Voltage (Electric Potential Difference).

Voltage is the potential energy difference per unit charge (

V = \frac{W}{Q}

), which matches 'The amount of electric potential energy delivered or work done per unit of electric charge'.

Voltage represents the electrical 'push' or work done to move a unit charge between two points.

3

Determine the physical definition of Electrical Resistance.

Resistance describes the opposition encountered by flowing charge (

R = \frac{V}{I}

), which matches 'The measure of a material's opposition to the passage of electric charge'.

Resistance impedes electric current and creates a potential drop across a circuit component.

4

Determine the physical definition of Electrical Power.

Electrical power is the rate of energy transformation or consumption (

P = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t} = VI

), which matches 'The rate at which electrical energy is transferred, converted, or dissipated per unit of time'.

Power quantifies how rapidly electrical potential energy is converted into thermal energy, light, or mechanical work.

Cevap

Electromagnetic induction matches the generation of an electromotive force via varying magnetic flux; magnetic torque in a motor matches the Lorentz force acting on current-carrying conductors; Joule heating matches the conversion of electrical energy into thermal dissipation through lattice collisions; and capacitor storage matches the retention of potential energy in an electric field across an insulating dielectric.

Each electromagnetic concept correctly corresponds to its underlying physical law: electromagnetic induction generates voltage from changing magnetic flux, motor action generates mechanical torque from magnetic forces on current, resistive heating results from microscopic electron collisions yielding thermal dissipation, and capacitors store potential energy in the electric field between separated charges.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the operational principle of generators versus motors.

Generators convert mechanical work to electricity via changing magnetic flux (induction), whereas motors convert electrical current in a magnetic field to mechanical torque (Lorentz force).

Differentiating between motor action (electrical-to-mechanical) and generator action (mechanical-to-electrical) prevents confusing input and output energy forms.

2

Analyze energy dissipation in resistive components.

Resistive conduction dissipates energy thermally as moving charge carriers collide with conductor ions.

Ohmic resistance transforms electric potential energy irreversibly into internal thermal energy.

3

Analyze static field storage in reactive capacitive components.

Capacitors hold charge statically across a dielectric boundary, storing energy within an electric field rather than dissipating it or relying on continuous charge flow.

Capacitive storage is electrostatic and reversible, contrasting with resistive thermal dissipation and magnetic induction.
