Chapter 2, Problem 26P

When converting resistances connected in a ∆ formation to a Y formation as shown in Fig. P2.24. the resistance R 2 is obtained as

R 2 = R b R c R a + R b + R c (2.69)

(a) Suppose R 2 = 12 . R a = R , R b = 3 R , and R c = 100 + R , all measured in ohms. Substitute these values into equation (2.70) to obtain the following quadratic equation for R. R 2 + 40 R 1200 = 0

(b) Solve the quadratic equation for R by the methods of completing the square and the quadratic formula.
