Refer to the attached figure. Suppose that the input sine wave has amplitude 5Vpp and the scope measures an output amplitude of 45mVpp. Estimate the Ron of the switch. (Note that when the switch is "ON", the output is "OFF"; don't confuse the two.)

  • Circuits: Determine how brightness of bulbs change when switch is closed

    The resistance of the filament is let's say: 1000 ohms. The resistance of the switch is 0.1 ohm. Each has a voltage of 10 V applied across (because they are all in parallel).

  • Internal Resistance of a Battery

    A fresh battery is being tested, and it is found that the voltage Vout, is 2.28 V with the switch open and 2.27 V with the switch closed. Find the internal resistance of the battery. See attached file for full problem description.

  • Current through Capacitor Circuit

    b) Find the current in the battery long after the switch is closed. Part A Immediately after the switch is closed the capacitor will act as a short circuit (no resistance) while current is flowing through it and charging the capacitor.

  • Parallel Circuit with a battery and three identical light bulbs

    Which of the following statements are true when the switch is closed (compared to the initial state, when the switch was open)? You can let the emf be 12 V and each resistance be 4 .

  • Current Flowing Through a Battery

    Since there is no resistance in that branch of the circuit, no current will flow through R2 and the parallel resistance of the capacitor and R2 will be zero.

  • Charge on Capacitor in Varying Situations

    2) After the switch has been in position 2 for 3.00 ms, the charge on the capacitor is measured to be 110uC. What is the value of the resistance R?

  • Steady State Conditions

    All of this current will go through the inductor since the resistance is zero and the current will follow the path of least resistance. The current through the inductor will thus be equal to 2 mA at steady state.

  • Inductive Circuit Analysis

    Hence, long time after closure of the switch (i.e. after I3 has stabilized), presence of L can be ignored (as the voltage across it is zero). R2 and R3 are effectively in parallel giving an equivalent resistance = (4 x 8)/12 = 2.67 ohm.

  • Transient response of second order circuit

    Since the switch is open the 15V battery does not contribute anything. The 1.1 KOhms resistance is shorted by the inductance. The 700 Ohm resistance carries no current because of the capacitance open ckt.

  • Parallel-plate capacitors

    A complete circuit consists of a 24.0 V battery, a 5.60 omega resistor, and a switch. The internal resistance of the battery is 0.28 omega. The switch is opened.
