A 10V source is connected across two parallel resistors of 20Ω and 30Ω. What is the total current drawn from the source?
Answer: 0.833 A
The parallel combination is (20×30)/(20+30) = 12Ω, so I = 10/12 ≈ 0.833 A.
In a series RLC circuit at resonance, which statement is true?
Answer: The impedance is purely resistive and at its minimum value
At series resonance, inductive and capacitive reactances cancel, leaving only resistance as the impedance.
What is the time constant of a series RC circuit with R = 4.7 kΩ and C = 22 μF?
Answer: 103.4 ms
τ = RC = 4700 × 22×10⁻⁶ = 0.1034 s = 103.4 ms.
Using the superposition theorem, how are individual source contributions combined to find the total response?
Answer: By algebraically adding the individual responses
Superposition states that the total response in a linear circuit equals the algebraic sum of responses due to each independent source acting alone.
A node in a circuit has three branches carrying currents of 3 A (in), 5 A (in), and I (out). What is I?
Answer: 8 A
By Kirchhoff's Current Law, currents entering a node equal currents leaving, so I = 3 + 5 = 8 A.
What is the Thevenin equivalent voltage across terminals A-B if an open-circuit measurement reads 15V?
Answer: 15 V
The Thevenin voltage equals the open-circuit voltage measured across the terminals, which is 15V.
