25.54. In the circuit shown in
Fig. P25.54, R is a variable resistor whose
value ranges from 0 to co, and a and b are
the terminals of a battery that has an emf
E = 15.0V and an internal resistance of
4.00 2. The ammeter and voltmeter are
idealized meters. As R varies over its full
range of values, what will be the largest
and smallest readings of (a) the voltmeter
and (b) the ammeter? (c) Sketch qualita-
tive graphs of the readings of both meters
as functions of R.
Figure P25.54
R
The figure shows a simple RC circuit consisting of a 100.0-V battery in series with a 10.0-µF capacitor and a resistor. Initially, the
switch S is open and the capacitor is uncharged. Two seconds after the switch is closed, the voltage across the resistor is 37 V.

Determine the numerical value of the resistance R.
A charging RC circuit controls the intermittent windshield wipers in a car. The emf is 12.0 V. The wipers are triggered when the voltage across the 110 μF capacitor reaches 10.0 V; then the capacitor is quickly discharged (through a much smaller resistor) and the cycle repeats. What resistance should be used in the charging circuit if the wipers are to operate once every 1.40 s?
