An AC electric motor is connected to a 240-V, 60-Hz source. A clamp-on ammeter with a peak hold function reveals that the motor has an inrush current of 34 A when the motor is first started. Your job is to reduce the inrush current to a value of 20 A by connecting a resistor in series with the motor. The resistor will be shunted out of the circuit after the motor is started. Using an ohmmeter, you find that the motor has a wire resistance of 3 . How much resistance should be connected in series with the motor to reduce the starting current to 20 A?
A DC resistive circuit includes a 5.5 mA current source, Is, which is connected to 2 resistors in parallel: Ry which is 7 kQ and R2 which has 1.75 times more conductance than R1. There is a closed switch before R2 in series with only this resistor. The negative terminal of the current source is at ground. a) Draw the circuit diagram for the above described circuit being sure to label all circuit elements, current directions and voltage polarities of each element. b) The switch is now open. Redraw the circuit diagram with a voltmeter which measures the voltage across the resistor Ry. Be sure to label all circuit elements, current directions and voltage polarities of each element. Indicate the value displayed by the voltmeter.

2. In a circuit that contains only resistors in parallel, some of the current in the circuit will go through each branch of the parallel resistors, as dictated by Kirchoff's Junction Rule. Furthermore, the potential difference provided by the battery is the potential difference across each branch of the parallel resistors (notice there is no potential drop between the branches). Assume the batteries supply a potential difference of AV = 3.0 V, and use Ohm's Law along with the currents measured through resistor R1 in circuits 4a, 4b, and 4c to determine the effective resistance in this branch (the branch that includes R1) of each circuit. Please show the calculation of each. R1 = 150 ohm, R2 = 230 ohm R3 = 270 ohms (don't believe question should need these but providing anyways)
Directions: Complete the table by providing the values for Vab, Vac, Vbd, and Vcd. Refer to Figures a and b. Note that an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance while an ideal ammeter has zero resistance. You may need to compute for the current in the circuit to find the unknown voltages.
To extend the useful range of a voltmeter, an additional resistor, Rseries, is placed in series with the voltmeter as shown in the figure. If the internal resistance of the voltmeter is Ri,V, determine the resistance that the added series resistor has to have to extend the useful range of the voltmeter by a factor N. Then, calculate the resistance the series resistor must have to allow a voltmeter with an internal resistance of 1.00 MΩ and a maximum range of 1.00 V to measure potential differences up to 100. V. What fraction of the total 100.-V potential drop occurs across the voltmeter, and what fraction of that drop occurs across the added series resistor?
The resistance of each brake light bulb on an automobile is 4.9 . Use the fact that cars have 12-V electrical systems to compute the current that flows in each bulb if they are connected in series. ( for simplicity, assume that the circuit is only composed of one brake light bulb and the car battery) A
As with the nodal analysis, the analysis of meshes for an electrical circuit is quite advantageous. This is because it also, to be developed, does not need a high number of equations. In practice, the main objective of this technique is to search for the intensities of called mesh currents. This is what can be done in the circuit presented below. Case the analysis of its meshes is carried out on it, what will be the current intensities found?
