Answer:
1.8A
Explanation:
Firstly, we need to find the effective resistance in the circuit.
For the two parallel resistors, the effective resistance is;
1/R = 1/7 + 1/15
R = 8.57Ω
Now let's connect it in series with the series resistor
R = 8.57 + 3.8 = 12.37Ω
This is the total effective resistance
The total current is therefore
22.3/8.57 = 1.8A
This is also the current flowing through the 3.8 resistor since it is connected in series
OSHA inspections are generally unannounced. In fact, except in four exceptional circumstances when advance notice may be given.
It is a criminal offense for any person to give unauthorized advance notice of an OSHA inspection.
<em>You should take note and exercise extreme precautions when you are near power lines and consider the following:
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>1. Make sure that you have a good distance away from the lines. The minimum distance you can get is 10 feet away from the lines. Be cautious as well when you see broken lines as they could still harm you and electrified you.
</em>
<em>2. Do not make ladders, equipments and things around you touch the power lines as it may harm you as well.
</em>
<em>3. Clear everything and ensure that no things are near you before you lift your hands and other tools.</em>
Answer:
a.) -147V
b.) -120V
c.) 51V
Explanation:
a.) Equation for potential difference is the integral of the electrical field from a to b for the voltage V_ba = V(b)-V(a).
b.) The problem becomes easier to solve if you draw out the circuit. Since potential at Q is 0, then Q is at ground. So voltage across V_MQ is the same as potential at V_M.
c.) Same process as part b. Draw out the circuit and you'll see that the potential a point V_N is the same as the voltage across V_NP added with the 2V from the other box.
Honestly, these things take practice to get used to. It's really hard to explain this.
