Kirchhoff’s Voltage law

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 1RQ

Refer Fig 9-1.

According to Kirchhoff’s voltage law, the algebraic sum of thevoltage drops and voltage sources around any closed loop must equal zero.

Explanation of Solution

Kirchhoff ’s laws offer the flexibility to solve any type of circuit, especially the circuits with more than one source of power. The laws are applicable for series, parallel as well as series parallel connections.

The joint probability density function of two discrete random variables X and Y is given by p(x, y)=c(2x+y), where x and y can assume all integers such that 0≤ x≤2, 0≤ y ≤ 3, and p (x, y)= 0 otherwise. a) Find the value of the constant c. (c) Find P(X≥1, Y≤2). (b) Find P(X=2, Y= 1).
A wattmeter is connected with the positive lead on phase "a" of a three-phase system. The negative lead is connected to phase "b". A separate wattmeter has the positive lead connected to phase "c". The negative lead of this wattmeter is connected also to phase "b". If the input voltage is 208 volts line-to- line, the phase sequence is "abc" and the load is 1200 ohm resistors connected in "Y", what is the expected reading of each of the wattmeters? (Hint: draw a phasor diagram)
