One characteristic of these lamps is that they exhibit negative resistance; in other words, as current increases the voltage drops further, making such lamps inherently unstable. As such, a current-limiting ballast is required. For the connection shown in the figure: 1. Find the equivalent Thevenin circuit of the lamp. 2. Find the ballast resistance needed to limit the current drawn from a 24-volt source to 6 amperes.
