Section N 5-9 How Canwec Check ?

This document contains solutions to problems about checking circuit calculations and measurements. The first solution checks the calculations for an LED circuit against provided data and finds they agree. The second solution finds an error in a prelab calculation for another circuit but then shows the measurements also disagree with the corrected calculation. The third solution verifies that a lab partner's claim about a circuit is correct. The final solution works through calculating values for a circuit based on Kirchhoff's laws and tabulated data and shows the calculations are consistent with the provided values.

n 5-9 How Can We Check…?


C

P 5.9-1
Solution
n:
Use the datta in the tablle to determiine voc and issc:
voc = 12
1 V (linne 1 of the taable)
isc = 3 mA (liine 3 of the ttable)
voc
so Rt = = 4 kΩ
isc

Next, check line 2 of thhe table. Whhen R = 10 kkΩ:


v 12
i = oc = = 0.8557 mA
R t + R 10 (10 ) + 5 (103 )
3

which agreees with the data in the taable.


v 112
To causee i = 1 mA reequires 001 = i = oc =
0.0 ⇒ R = 8000 Ω
R t + R 10 (1003 ) + R
I agree with
w my lab partner’s
p claiim that R = 8000
8 causes i = 1 mA.

P 5.9-2
Solution
n:
1 1 1 1 11 6R
= + + = ⇒ Rt =
R t R 2 R 3R 6 R 11
and
⎛ 23 ⎞ ⎛ 34 ⎞ ⎛ 65 ⎞ 180
voc = ⎜ ⎟ 300 + ⎜ ⎟ 20 + ⎜ ⎟10 =
⎝ 3+ 2 3⎠ ⎝ 2+3 4⎠ ⎝1+ 6 5 ⎠ 11

so the prelaab calculatioon isn’t correect.


But then
180 180
voc 11
i= = = 11 = 163 mA ≠ 54.5 mA
Rt + R
(110 ) + 400 60 + 40
6
11

so the meeasurement does


d not agrree with the corrected
c preelab calculattion.
P 5.9-3
Solution:
9000 & 4500 & ( 500 + 1500) = 3000 & 2000 = 1200 Ω
12 12
i= ≤ = 10 mA
R + 1200 1200

How about that?! Your lab partner is right.

P 5.9-4
Solution:
(a)
KVL gives
v oc = ( R t + R ) i
from row 2
v oc = ( R t + 10 ) (1.333)
from row 3
v oc = ( R t + 20 ) ( 0.857 )
So
(R t + 10 ) (1.333) = ( R t + 20 ) ( 0.857 )

28 ( R t + 10 ) = 18 ( R t + 20 )
Solving gives
10 R t = 360 − 280 = 80 ⇒ Rt = 8 Ω
and
v oc = ( 8 + 10 )(1.333) = 24 V

(b)
v oc 24 R 24 R
i= = and v = v oc =
Rt + R 8+ R R + Rt R +8

When R = 0, i = 3 A, and v = 0 V.
1
When R = 40 Ω, i = A .
2
24 ( 80 ) 240
When R = 80 Ω, v = = = 21.82 .
88 11
These are the values given in the tabulated data so the data is consistent.
24 ( 40 )
(c) When R = 40 Ω, v = = 20 V .
48
24
When R = 80 Ω, i = = 0.2727 A .
88
(d) First
8 = R t = 24 & 18 & ( R1 + 12 ) ⇒ R1 = 24 Ω
the, using superposition,

24 = v oc =
24
( )
12 + 24 & 18 ( R1 + 12 ) i s = 8 + 8i s ⇒ is = 2 A
(
24 + 18 & ( R1 + 12 ) )
(checked using LNAP 6/21/05)
