Transcribed Image Text:### Problem Statement
Given the following electrical circuits, you are tasked with:
a) Finding the equivalent resistance seen by the source.
b) Calculating the power developed by the source.
### Figure P3.4
**Diagram (a):**
- A circuit with a source voltage of 18 V.
- Three resistors are connected as follows:
- A 24 Ω resistor is in series with a node connected to two parallel resistors.
- The parallel resistors are 36 Ω and 18 Ω.
**Diagram (b):**
- A circuit with a source voltage of 60 V.
- Five resistors are connected as follows:
- A 75 kΩ resistor is in series with a node connected to a 50 kΩ resistor.
- The node is also connected to three parallel resistors: 100 kΩ, 150 kΩ, and 60 kΩ.
- Additionally, a 90 kΩ resistor is in parallel with the entire arrangement of parallel resistors (100 kΩ, 150 kΩ, and 60 kΩ).
### Analysis
**Diagram (a) Analysis:**
1. **Equivalent Resistance Calculation:**
- First, find the equivalent resistance of the parallel resistors (36 Ω and 18 Ω).
- Add this equivalent resistance to the 24 Ω resistor to get the total equivalent resistance.
2. **Power Developed by the Source:**
- Use the formula \( P = \frac{V^2}{R} \) where \( V \) is the source voltage and \( R \) is the equivalent resistance.
**Diagram (b) Analysis:**
1. **Equivalent Resistance Calculation:**
- Start by finding the equivalent resistance of the parallel resistors (100 kΩ, 150 kΩ, and 60 kΩ).
- Calculate the parallel equivalent resistance with 90 kΩ.
- Add the results to the series configuration involving 75 kΩ and 50 kΩ.
2. **Power Developed by the Source:**
- Use the formula \( P = \frac{V^2}{R} \) where \( V \) is the source voltage and \( R \) is the equivalent resistance.
These calculations will yield the necessary equivalencies and power outputs for analysis and further understanding of the circuit dynamics.
