$1 trillion = $1 × 1012 .

AP 1.3 [a] First we use Eq. (1.2) to relate current and charge:
dq

ST
dt
Therefore, dq = 0.25te−2000t dt.
To find the charge, we can integrate both sides of the last equation. Note
UV
that we substitute x for q on the left side of the integral, and y for t on
the right side of the integral:
Z q(t) Z t
dx = 0.25 ye−2000y dy.
q(0) 0
We solve the integral and make the substitutions for the limits of the

[a] Now we have to match the voltage and current shown in the first figure
with the polarities shown in Fig. 1.6. Remember that 250 mA of current
entering Terminal 2 is the same as 250 mA of current leaving Terminal 1.

We get
(a) v = 50 V, i = −0.25 A; (b) v = 50 V, i = 0.25 A;
(c) v = −50 V, i = −0.25 A; (d) v = −50 V, i = 0.25 A.
UV
[b] Using the reference system in Fig. 1.6(a) and the passive sign convention,
p = vi = (50)(−0.25) = −12.5 W.
[c] Since the power is less than 0, the box is delivering power.
