Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The voltage V2 should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

When resistors are in series, a voltage divider. V = V1 + V2 + V3

The current in a series circuit is everywhere the same. In other words, I = I1 = I2 = I3

The total resistance Rs of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the resistances of the individual components. Rs = R1 + R2 + R3

Ohm’s law;

Ohm’s law describes the relationship among voltage, resistance, and current in a resistive series circuit.

V = IR

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The power loss in resistor R2 should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Ohm’s law;

Ohm’s law describes the relationship among voltage, resistance, and current in a resistive series circuit.

V = IR

V = Voltage I = Current R = resistant

Power rule;

P = V I

P = Power V = voltage I = Current

Calculate the effect that increasing the overpotential from 0.50 V to 0.60 V has on the current density in the electrolysis of 1.0 m NaOH(aq), which is 1.22 mA cm−2 at 0.50 V and 25 °C. Take α = 0.50.
The Weibull distribution is widely used in statistical problems relating to aging of solid insulating materials subjected to aging and stress. Use this distribution as a model for time (in hours) to failure of solid insulating specimens subjected to AC voltage. The values of the parameters depend on the voltage and temperature; suppose ? = 2.2 and ? = 220. (a) What is the probability that a specimen's lifetime is at most 250? Less than 250? More than 300? (Round your answers to five decimal places.) at most 250 less than 250more than 300 (b) What is the probability that a specimen's lifetime is between 100 and 250? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)   (c) What value (in hr) is such that exactly 50% of all specimens have lifetimes exceeding that value? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)  hr
