Chapter 4, Problem 4.2P

The temperature dependence of resistance is also quantified by the relation R 2 = R 1 [ 1 + α ( T 2 T 1 ) ]

where R 1 and R 2 are the resistances at temperatures T 1 and T 2 , respectively, and α is known as the temperature coefficient of resistance. If a copper wire has a resistance of 55 Ω at 20 ° C, find the maximum permissible operating temperature of the wire if its resistance is to increase by at most 20 % . Take the temperature coefficient at 20 ° C to be α = 0.00382.

Design 5th order LPF with gain = Yo cut of freq=10KHZ
The current coil of a wattmeter is connected in the red line of a three-phase system. The voltage circuit can be connected between the red line and either the yellow line or the blue line by means of a two-way switch. Assuming the load to be balanced, show with the aid of a phasor diagram that the sum of the wattmeter indications obtained with the voltage circuit connected to the yellow and the blue lines respectively gives the total active power.
A wattmeter has its current coil connected in the yellow line, and its voltage circuit is connected between the red and blue lines. The line voltage is 400 V and the balanced load takes a line current of 30 A at a power factor of 0.7 lagging. Draw circuit and phasor diagrams and derive an expression for the reading on the wattmeter in terms of the line voltage and current and of the phase difference between the phase voltage and current. Calculate the value of the wattmeter indication. ANS:  . Line amperes × line volts × sin φ = 8750 var
