Figure P2.13: Circuit for Problem 2.13.
Solution: Since I0 = 0, the middle branch in the bridge section is of no consequence. The voltage between nodes a and b is the same following either path between them. Hence, I1 1 + I1 1 = I2 1 + I2 1, or I1 = I2 , which is obvious considering that all 4 resistors in the bridge section are the same. For the left loop that includes the 24-V source, 24 + V1 + V2 + V3 = 0 V1 = 3I V2 = I1 V3 = I1 and I = I1 + I2 = 2I1 . Hence, 24 + 3I + 2I1 = 0 24 + 3I + I = 0 or I= 24 = 6 A. 4

Problem 2.76 Find the equivalent resistance looking into the terminals of the circuit in Fig. P2.76 using a test voltage source and current probes in the Interactive Simulation in Multisim. Compare the answer you get to what you obtain from series and parallel combining of resistors carried out by hand.
Solution: The two 12-k resistors in parallel are equal to 6 k because for any parallel combination of identically valued resistors, R Req = , N where Req is the total equivalent resistance of the combination, R is the resistance of the elements, and N is the number of resistors in the parallel network. On the right side there is now a series combination of a 6-k resistor, a 10-k resistor, and a 3.9-k resistor. Together these equal 19.9 k. This new value is in parallel with a 1-k resistor. Therefore 19.9 1 = 952.153 . This is then in series with a 1-k resistor, so 1.952153 k. This is then in parallel with another 1-k resistor, so 1.952 1 = 661.25 . Finally, this value is in series with a 4.7-k resistor, so Req = 4.7 k + 661.25 = 5.361 k. When you construct the circuit, add a voltage source across the two pins, and add the current probe right above the test source. Run the Interactive Simulation to get the following screen shot:
Note that you can set the test voltage to anything you want. Unity test voltage (and current) sources usually just make things easier to solve. Take the values from this simulation, to get Req = 1.00 = 5.348 k, 187 106
which is pretty close (0.24% off) from what we obtained by hand. The differences can be explained by rounding.

No change observed in I1, I2, and I3, but V1 varied from 7.88 V to 9.88 V. Explanaon: The current source maintains a constant current in the lower branch and therefore the remaining circuit sees no dierence. However, as the voltage changes across R3 the current source voltage adapts its own voltage V1.
