EE 42 Homework and Reading No. 2
Homework assigned Thursday 27 Jan. 2005; due at 5:30 pm Thursday 3 Feb. 2005 in the
box labeled EE 42 in Room 240 Cory Hall. Note: your graded homeworks will be
returned in your discussion section; your GSI will keep your homework until you pick it
up to maintain privacy.
Reading: Chapter 2 of Hambley
Problems are all in Hambley, 3rd Ed. (10 points each):
P1.56 (Simple circuit, Ohm’s law, power balance)
P1.58 (Circuit with independent and dependent sources)
P2.2 (Equivalent resistance)
P2.3 (Find the unknown resistance)
P2.11 (Resistances and power of space heaters)
P2.22 (Circuit to solve using series and parallel resistances)
P2.33 (Voltage divider with some practical considerations)
P2.41 (Nodal voltage circuit problem)
P2.45 (Equivalent resistance for a network. Note: The technique suggested can
be applied later when we talk about Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits: to
find the resistance that is equivalent to that looking into the circuit, supply a test
current ITEST and find what voltage is developed across the terminals a and b.)
