Answers to Chapter 15 Problems

 

15.2.1   (a)  3.77 A     (b)   (i) 1.50 ×1011 A m2    (ii)  6.3%

15.2.2    1.1 × 104 A m−2;   220 mm s−1

15.7.1    9.45 W,    6.30 W,    3.78 W.

15.7.2    47 Ω

15.7.3    320 V

15.7.4    67 A;  If the motor is faulty:  Rmotor = 0.57 Ω, which is possible          

                        If the cable is faulty:  Rcable = 7.9 mΩ, which is less than the original Rcable, which is not possible   →    the motor should be replaced

15.7.5    3.3 W;    0.42 °C s–1

15.8.1    77.4 Î©;     0.020 A

15.8.2    R = r1 - r2:  For power supply 2, however, r1 - ris negative so there is no physically acceptable value of R that produces zero potential difference across the terminals.

15.8.3    The internal resistance of either battery is 2.2 Î©.

15.8.4    0.50 Î©   or   17.95 Ω

15.8.5   20 A;  (i) 1.25 W   (ii) 42 mW;    0.1 Î©

15.9.1     70 Î©

15.10.1  (a)   r = 0.85 Ω      (b)   E =  2.28 V

15.10.2   2.5 Î©

15.10.3  (i) RAC = 78.9 Î©     (ii)  105.8 Î©

15.10.4  (i) 0.19 A;   0.14 A;    0.34 A     (ii)  2.3 V;  2.7 V     (iii)  0.45 W;    0.33 W;    0.91 W

15.10.5  

15.10.6   R/3

15.11.1   0.263 W

15.11.2  

15.11.3   only the 50 Î© resistor exceeds its power rating

15.11.4   0.15 A through 10 Ω and 30 Ω;    0.05 A through 15 Î© and 5 Î©;   0.1 A through 20 Î© 

15.11.5   4.96 mA through 400 Ω;  4.60 mA through 330 Ω;   0.36 mA through 47 Ω 

15.12.1   (a) 44 W     (b)  1.66 mW

15.13.1   (i)  2.60 V     (ii)  0.04 Î©    (iii)  0.26 A     (iv)  29 W (in 5 V supply);  7.0 W (in 2 V supply)

15.14.1   2.0 km from B;  300 Î©

15.14.2   (i) 1.58 × 105 A m−2     (ii)  0.19 V

15.14.3   24.5 cm

15.14.4   0.8 Î©

15.14.5   95 m  

15.14.6   (i)  3 × 108 A m–2   (ii)  6 × 103  A m–2   (iii)  2.3 × 107  A m–2

15.15.1    RC = 91 Ω;   RFe = 9.1 Î©   

15.15.2    0.0017%;   0.0034%;   0.40%;   0.402%

15.15.3    0.76 Î©

15.15.4    1.39;  less than 2% due to thermal expansion
