Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.26P
Suppose that the cost of electrical energy is $0.12 per kilowatt hour and that your electrical bill for 30 days is $60. Assume that the power delivered is constant over the entire 30 days. What is the power in watts? If this power is supplied by a voltage of 120 V, what current flows? Part of your electrical load is a 60 W light that is on continuously. By what percentage can your energy consumption be reduced by turning this light off?

It is driven by an ideal voltage generator producing a pulse of amplitude 10V and width 2 nS. If the transmission line is connected to a load of 200 ohms, sketch the voltage at the load as a function of time for the interval 0 < t < 20 nS. You may assume that the propagation velocity of the transmission is c/2. Answered now answer number 2. Repeat Q.1 but now assume the width of the pulse produced by the generator is 4 nS. Sketch the voltage at the load as a function of time for 0 < t < 20 nS.arrow_forward
