Marks: 30

Due Date: November 12, 2015

 

DON’T miss these important instructions:

         

• To solve this assignment, you should have good command over first 6 lectures.
• Upload assignments properly through LMS, (No Assignment will be accepted through email).
•  Write your ID on the top of your solution file.
• All students are directed to use the font and style of text as is used in this document.
• Don’t use colorful back grounds in your solution files.
• Use Math Type or Equation Editor etc for mathematical symbols.
• This is not a group assignment, it is an individual assignment so be careful and avoid copying others’ work. If some assignment is found to be copy of some other, both will be awarded zero marks. It also suggests you to keep your assignment safe from others. No excuse will be accepted by anyone if found to be copying or letting others copy.
• You can draw circuit diagrams in “Paint” in “Corel Draw” or in circuit maker. The simple and easy way is to copy the given image in Paint and do the required changes in it.

First 2 ki he li hy phly smaj to lea karo kay aik aik line kay sath comment denay parain gay ab handout may example dekh lo

Bhai ager 5 ya 5 say bara digit ho to to phir krtay hain 1 add khair main answer phir b wohi ata hy is leay behas na karain my nay first time post ki hy ya so bewaja baat pay larna nhi chahta

[Imtiaz Azeem]

zrori ni ha 5 se bara ho tb hi ki jaaey aap below numbers ko b likh sktey ho. This is electric circuit so a minor change not matter.

Q 1:
Find the equivalent resistance RT of given circuit. Write each step of the calculation to get maximum marks. Draw the circuit diagram of each step otherwise you will lose marks. 




 







The total resistance of circuit is=

4+2 of two series resistances = 6 ohm for above mentioned circuit.
Then total of above circuit = 6*6/6+6= 3 ohm
The total resistance for this part is= 4*4*4/4+4+4= 1.34 ohm



Resistance of this part is 1+1.34+5 = 7.34

Resistance of this part is 3+1+3= 7

Resistance of this part is 7*7.34/7+7.34= 3.58
Thus after redesigning whole circuit it will be
The total resistance of whole circuit is= 5+3.58+1= 9.58 ohms


Q 2:
Find the current through each resistor and power dissipation across 20kΩ Resistance. Write each step of the calculation to get maximum marks and also mention the units of each derived value.



Answer:
 
Q 3: Answer following briefly.

(a) Is it right to say that every short circuit is a close circuit while every close circuit is not short circuit. Justify your answer
Answer: The circuit where both terminals are connected in a loop is called a close circuit. The circuit having a load/resistance also a close circuit but due to resistance we can’t transmit maximum amount of current from one terminal to other. On the other hand where both terminals connected in loop but resistance between both terminals is approximately zero then we can say this is a short circuit.
As we saw the loop with a load also is a close circuit and short circuit is also closed by keeping this in mind we can say every short circuit is closed and every closed circuit is not a short circuit because the close circuit may have a load b/w both terminals.
(b) What is the use of circuit breaker and Fuse in electric panel/wiring?
Answer: We use circuit breakers and fuses in electric panel/wiring to save appliances from over amount of current to pass from them. As every electrical equipment bear a certain amount of current in case when over current moves in the circuit of equipment it may damage the equipment. To avoid such condition we use fuses and breakers the fuse melt down when over current try to pass from it by this the circuit break down and turn the supply off to save electric appliances. The same purpose of breaker it switch off when current or exceed a certain value.
© Write the names of different instruments/devices used to measure the voltage and current across a circuit element & way to connect them.
Answer:
Volt Meter: We use volt meter to measure amount of voltages in a circuit. We connect volt meter in parallel to measures voltages as the voltages remain same in a parallel circuit.
Ampere meter:
Ampere meter is used to measure the amount of current in circuit as we know that current remain same in series so we connect ampere meter in series to check amount of current in a circuit.

Thanks Tariq Bahi.

This was a demo that why i write it as 4*4*4/4+4+4=1.34 so please do not confuse and concentrate on examples of lectures. Just do it in parallel of two two circuits each time take two and then calculate answers with next resistance. 

[HaSsAn]

one calculation is wrong in 1st question in the 2nd step when we multiply 4x4x4 the is equal to 64 and 4+4+4=12 so after division it will be 5.32

Q. 1 

Find the equivalent resistance RT of given circuit.

The equivalent resistance of resistors in series equals the sum of the individual resistances of the resistor. Equivalent Resistance for Resistors in Series R = RA +RB +Rc and The equivalent resistance of resistors in parallel equals the sum of the Equivalent Resistance for Resistors in Parallel R=1/R1+1/R2+1/R3.
