Q.1:
Using Ohm's law, we can calculate the current flowing through the circuit. The total
resistance (Rt) of the circuit is 3kΩ, as calculated in the image analysis. The voltage
of the battery is given as 1.2V.
Therefore, the current flowing through the circuit is approximately 0.4A or 400mA.
2. Power supplied by the battery:
The power supplied by the battery can be calculated using the formula:
Power = V^2 / R
Since the circuit consists of a 2kΩ resistor and a 5kΩ resistor connected in series, we
can calculate the total resistance (Rt) as the sum of the resistances:
Rt = 2kΩ + 5kΩ
Rt = 7kΩ
Using the voltage of the battery (V = 1.2V) and the total resistance (Rt = 7kΩ), we
can calculate the power supplied by the battery:
Power = V^2 / Rt
Power = (1.2V)^2 / 7kΩ
Power ≈ 0.205W or 205mW
If the 12W bulb is opened (or disconnected), it means that the current flowing through
the circuit will be affected. Specifically, the current flowing through the circuit will
decrease since the resistance of the bulb is removed.
To calculate the new current flowing through the circuit, we need to consider the new
total resistance of the circuit without the bulb. Since the bulb is opened, its resistance
can be considered as infinite (or very large).
Without the bulb, the circuit consists of only the 2kΩ resistor connected to the battery.
Therefore, the new total resistance (Rt) is simply the resistance of the 2kΩ resistor.
Using Ohm's law, we can calculate the new current flowing through the circuit:
I = V / Rt
I = 1.2V / 2kΩ
I = 0.6A or 600mA
Therefore, if the 12W bulb is opened, the current flowing through the circuit will be
approximately 0.6A or 600mA.
Q.2:
Identify and label each node and using the Nodal analysis, find out Voltage value at
each node and Current for 5KΩ in circuit given below.
To solve the given circuit using nodal analysis, we need to identify and label each
node. Let's label the nodes as follows:
Now, let's use nodal analysis to find the voltage value at each node and the current
for the 5kΩ resistor.
1. Node A:
Since node A is the reference node, its voltage is 0V.
2. Node B:
The voltage at node B is given as 11V.
3. Node C:
To find the voltage at node C, we can use the voltage divider rule. The voltage
at node C is given by:
Vc = Vb * (Rc / (Rb + Rc))
Vc = 11V * (2kΩ / (5kΩ + 2kΩ))
Vc = 11V * (2/7)
Vc ≈ 3.143V
4. Node D:
To find the voltage at node D, we can again use the voltage divider rule. The
voltage at node D is given by:
Vd = Vc * (Rd / (Rc + Rd))
Vd = 3.143V * (5kΩ / (2kΩ + 5kΩ))
Vd = 3.143V * (5/7)
Vd ≈ 2.245V
Q.3:
Next, we can calculate the current flowing through the 4Ω resistor using
Ohm's law: I = V/R, where V is the voltage across the resistor. Since the
resistors are in parallel, the voltage across each resistor is the same as the
voltage across the current source, which is 2mA.
Therefore, the current flowing through the 4Ω resistor is I = 2mA.
To find the power dissipated across the 4Ω resistor, we can use the formula
P = I^2 * R, where I is the current flowing through the resistor and R is the
resistance.
Plugging in the values, we get P = (2mA)^2 * 4Ω = 8mW.
b) In Ohm's law, the three quantities are related as follows: V = I * R.
