Chapter 1, Problem 1.27P
Figure P1.27 shows an ammeter (AM) and voltmeter (VM) connected to measure the current and voltage, respectively, for circuit element A.When current actually enters the + terminal of the ammeter, the reading is positive, and when current leaves the + terminal, the reading is negative. If the actual voltage polarity is positive at the + terminal of the VM, the reading is positive; otherwise, it is negative. (Actually, for the connection shown, the ammeter reads the sum of the current in element A and the very small current taken by the voltmeter. For purposes of this problem, assume that the current taken by the voltmeter is negligible.) Find the power for element A and state whether energy is being delivered to element A or taken from it if

How does the power, P, dissipated by a resistor depend on the indicated parameter (resistance, R,of the resistor, or the voltage or current of the supply) for each of the following scenarios? I amlooking for a mathematical equation for power as a function of the indicated parameter followed bya description of the dependence - does the power increase, decrease, remain the same or some otherdependence, as the parameter is increased? (and if other, describe.) If it is increasing or decreasing,by what factor does the power change if the parameter is increased by a factor of 3?(a) Constant R, powered by ideal voltage supply (We will examine real batteries that have internalresistance in class and the next homework.) How does P depend on the voltage, V, of thesupply?(b) Constant R, powered by ideal current supply. How does power depend on the current I?(c) Ideal battery operating at a fixed voltage, powering a variable resistor R. How does P dependon the resistance, R, of the resistor?(d)…
