2025/26 UPDATE | 100% CORRECT
A series circuit consists of two fixed resistors of 1.5 kΩ and 3.3 kΩ, and a 10 kΩ potentiometer. The
maximum resistance of the circuit is - (ANSWER)14.8 kΩ
A series circuit consists of three resistors with values of 1.2 kΩ, 2.2 kΩ, and 3.3 kΩ across a 15-V source.
The current through the 2.2 kΩ resistor is - (ANSWER)2.24 mA
A 2.2 kΩ resistor has 4 mA of current passing through it. The resistor dissipates - (ANSWER)35.2 mW
A series circuit consists of three resistors with values of 680 Ω, 1.2 kΩ, and 2 kΩ across a 15-V source.
The voltage across the 1.2 kΩ resistor is - (ANSWER)4.64 V
An internal resistance (RS) of 75 Ω is in series with a 150 Ω load potentiometer across a 20-V source. The
maximum possible load power for the circuit is - (ANSWER)1.33 W
An 18-V source is connected to a 1 kΩ resistor with a 5% tolerance. The maximum current value for the
circuit is - (ANSWER)18.95 mA
Four equal resistors are connected in series between a 24 -V voltage source and ground. The resistor
third from the voltage source (second from ground) has opened. If you were to measure the voltage
across the resistor closest to ground, you would get a reading of - (ANSWER)0 V
Maximum transfer of power to a variable load occurs when - (ANSWER)the load and source resistance
are equal
The first 8 questions are multiple choices. The last 4 questions are fill in blanks. for the last 4 problems
DO NOT WRITE THE UNITS ONLY ENTER YOUR NUMERICAL ANSWER IN THE SPACE PROVIDED, for
example if your answer is 29.5 volts for a given problem, just simply write 29.5 and you have 0.85 amps
for a current, just write 0.85 (NOT .85).
Calculate the maximum possible value of load power in W for the circuit shown. - (ANSWER)4
