Chapter 2, Problem 2.40P

Suppose we need to design a voltage-divider circuit to provide an output voltage vo=5 V from a 15-V source as shown in Figure P2.40. The current taken from the 15-V source is to be 200 mA.

  1. Find the values of R1 and P2

  • Now suppose that a load resistance of 200 Ω is connected across the output terminals (i.e., in parallel with R2) Find the value of vo.

    The resistance for the network shown in Figure P2.20 between terminals a and b with copen circuited is Rab=50 Ω. Similarly, the resistance between terminals b and c with a open is Rbc=100 Ω,and between c and a with b open is Rca=70 Ω. Now, suppose that a short circuit isconnected from terminal b to terminal c, and determine the resistance between terminal a andthe shorted terminals b–c.
    The circuit of Figure P2.47 is similar to networks used in digital-to-analog converters. For this problem, assume that the circuit continues indefinitely to the right. Find the values of i1, i2, i3 and i4. How is i n+2 related to i n ? What is the value of i18 ?
    Find the equivalent resistance for the infinite network shown in Figure P2.12(a). Because of its form, this network is called a semi-infinite ladder. [Hint: If another section is added to the ladder as shown in Figure P2.12(b), the equivalent resistance is the same. Thus, working from Figure P2.12(b), we can write an expression for Req in terms of Req.Then, we can solve for Req.
