Chapter 1, Problem 1.20P

Traffic lights are being converted from incandescent bulbs to LED arrays to save operating and maintenance costs. Typically, each incandescent light uses three 100-W bulbs, one for each color R, Y, G. A competing LED array consists of 61 LEDs with each LED requiring 9 V and drawing 20mA of current. There are three arrays per light—R, Y, G. A small city has 1560 traffic signals. Since one light is always on 2417 , how much can a city save in 1 year if the city buys their electricity at 7.2 c per kWh?

An ammeter has been designed by indirect method with current ranges 1A, and 5A, if PMMC meter have internal resistance of 50 (2 and half scale current of 0.5 mA. Ra and Rb will be --- ohm Ra= 0.05005 , Rb=0.01001 Ra = 0.04004 , Rb = 0.01001 Ra= 0.05005 Rb= 0.04004
The error for an ammeter is found as ±2%, the true range of the current it can give for 10 mA is a. 0 mA to 10 mA b. 12 mA to 20 mA c. 9.8 mA to 10.2 mA d. 8 mA to 12 mA
How would you rearranged this circuit if a pnp should be used to light up the led instead?
