1.There is a fixed voltage across a resistor, and you measure a current of 1 A. If you
replace the resistor with one that has twice the resistance value, how much
current will you measure?

2. In a circuit, the voltage is doubled and the resistance is cut in half. Would the
current increase or decrease and if so, by how much?

3. What is the current in mA produced by1 kV


across a 27 k Ω resistor?

4. A variable voltage source is connected to the


circuit of Figure 1. Start at 0 V and increase
the voltage in 10 V steps up to 100 V.
Determine the current at each voltage point,
and plot a graph of V versus I. Is the graph a
straight line? What does the graph indicate?

5. How much voltage will be measured Figure 1


across the resistor in figure 2?

6.How much resistance is needed to draw


3.08 A of current from the 12V battery?

7. A certain resistor has the following color


code:
Figure 2
Orange, Orange, Red, Gold.
Determine the maximum and minimum currents you should expect to measure
when a 12 V source is connected across the resistor?
8. A 5-band resistor is connected across a 12 V source. Determine the current if the
color code isorange, violet, yellow, gold, brown.

9. If the voltage in Problem 8 is doubled, will a 0.5 A fuse blow? Explain your
answer.

10. A 110 V lamp-dimming circuit is controlled by a rheostat and protected from


excessive current by a 1 A fuse. To what minimum resistance value can the rheostat
be set without blowing the fuse? Assume a lamp resistance of 15 Ω.

11. By varying the rheostat (variable resistor) in the circuit of figure 3, you can
change the amount of current. The setting of the rheostat is such that the current is
750 mA. What is the resistance value of this setting? To adjust the current to 1 A, to
what resistance value must you set the
rheostat?

12. If there are 10 V across a resistor and a


current of 3 A through it, what is the power
dissipated?

13. An electronic power supply used in the


lab operates with an input power of 1 W. It
can provide an output power of 750 mW.
What is its efficiency? Determine the power
loss.
