Derive expressions for the Thévenin voltage and resistance “seen” by the detector in the Wheatstone bridge in Figure 2.66. (In other words, remove the detector from the circuit and determine the Thévenin resistance for the remaining two-terminal circuit.) What is the value of the Thévenin voltage when the bridge is balanced?
A power plant produces 1000MW to supply a city 40km away. Current flows from the power plant on a single wire with resistance through the city and returns via the ground, with negligible resistance. At the power plant the voltage between wire and ground is 115 kV. Determine: (a) the current in the wire, and (b) the fraction of the power lost in transmission.
You are working as an electrician in a large steel manufacturing plant, and you are in the process of doing preventive maintenance on a large DC generator. You have megged both the series and shunt field windings and found that each has over 10 M to ground. Your ohmmeter, however, indicates a resistance of 1.5 across terminals S1andS2. The ohmmeter indicates a resistance of 225 between terminals F1andF2. Are these readings normal for this type machine, or is there a likely problem? Explain your answer.
