We have two small electric lamps on which it is written 8V, 1W. We have a 20V battery and negligible internal resistance. These two lamps, a resistor R and the current source are connected in series. (a) Calculate the value that R must have for the lamps to operate normally. (b) Calculate the efficiency of the system
A battery with a terminal voltage of Vab = 9 V is connected to a circuit having three 10-ohm and one 5-ohm resistors all in series. Assuming that the battery has negligible internal resistance, calculate the equivalent resistance in the circuit, and (b) the current through each resistor.
The sun’s output power is given as 1000 W/m2. The solar module has a surface area of 1 m^2 with a conversion efficiency of 10%. A charge controller converts the 20V module voltage to 12V battery voltage, with an efficiency of 84% The battery is 12V with a capacity of 10Ah. Assuming the battery is half empty and the bulb is powered on, how long will it take for the battery to be fully charged? How long can the bulb be powered at night, assuming full battery when the sun goes down and that you can fully drain the battery
