The circuit diagram in Figure 6 shows a circuit model of a nervous system, which consists of neuronal cell fibres. Electric signals generated in the soma will propagate down a relatively long axon fibre that can be modelled as a connection of repeating membrane resistances (rm), longitudinal axon resistances (r), and membrane capacitances (cm). Determine the expression of the equivalent impedance, Zeg, of this infinite circuit looking from terminals A and B.

Please determine if each question is True. If false, please explain why a) A fully charged capacitor behaves identically to a break in the wire (i.e. no current passes through it).b) An uncharged capacitor behaves identically to a break in the wire (i.e. no current passes through it).c) Whether charging or discharging a capacitor, the charge on the capacitor can be modeled using an exponentiallyincreasing function.
You have seen how Kirchhoff's laws were used in your lectures to obtain a 2nd order differential equation where we solved for the current. This time we will use an even simpler concept: principle of conservation of energy to derive the 2nd order differential equation where we will solve for the charge. Take a look at the circuit below. 2F In the circuit above, we have a capacitor with capacitance 2 F, an inductor of inductance 5 H and a resistor of 32 (a) The total energy that is supplied to the resistor is LI? Q? E = 2 where L is the inductance, I is the current, C is the capacitance and Q is the charge. Write down the total energy supplied E in terms of Q and t only. Remember that I: dQ %3D dt (b) Now you know that the power dissipation through a resistor is -1 R.

A piece of electrical component inside a gaming laptop uses a source of electromotive force, resistor, and inductor. If the voltage, resistance, and inductance are 4sin4t volts, 2 ohms, and 1 henry, respectively, what is the current along the circuit after 2 seconds when the initial current applied to the circuit is 0.6 amperes? Assume Kirchhoff's Voltage Law applies which states that travelling around any loop/circuit, the gains and losses of voltage across the elements add up to zero. Do not round off intermediate steps. Round off the final answer to two decimal places.
