Problem 3-42
Assume that Figure P3-42 represents a model of the auxiliary output port of a car. The output
current is i = 1 A when v = 0 V. The output voltage is v = 12 V when a 20-! resistor is
connected between the terminals. Suppose you wanted to charge a 12-V battery by connecting
the battery at the port. How much current would the port deliver to the battery?

v
i
Output
Port


Solution:
The short circuit current is 1 A, as stated in the problem. When a 20-! resistor is connected to
the circuit, the equivalent resistance must be 12 ! to create a 12-V drop. Use MATLAB to solve
for the Norton resistance. Then find the Thvenin equivalent circuit and solve for the current
into the battery, assuming the battery acts as an ideal source with no internal resistance

Problem 3-44
You successfully completed Circuits I and as an undergraduate work-study, your past professor
asked you to help her grade a Circuits I quiz. On the quiz, students were asked to find the power
supplied by the source to both the 10 k! load (R
L
) and to the entire circuit as shown in Figure
P3-44. Your professor asks to help her by creating a grading sheet.

(a) Solve the quiz and establish reasonable A, Betc. cuts
for incorrect solutions.
(b) A particular student correctly finds the Thvenin
equivalent circuit that the resistive load sees and calculates
the power to the load using V
T

/R

. He then does a source
transformation correctly finding the Norton equivalent of the
circuit. He calculates the source power by V
T
!I

. What
grade would you give him?
(c) Another student finds P
L
= 5.625 mW and P
S
= 22.5
mW, but provides no work to justify her answers. What grade
would you give her?
(d) A third student first finds the Norton equivalent, finds the current through the load using a
current divider and calculates the power in the load using I
L

R

. He figures correctly what the
parallel voltage would be across the Norton circuit and the load v

Solution:

MATLAB code. Let the center node be node A and the upper right node be node B. Ground the
bottom node.

(b) The student deserves credit for finding the correct Thvenin and Norton equivalent circuits,
but the power calculations are incorrect for both the load and the total power dissipated in the
circuit. The grade for this solution should be low, such as a D.

Solution:
Connect the practical source to the input of Circuit 1 and then connect the output of Circuit 1 to
the input of Circuit 2. The practical source does not change the gain of Circuit 1, so it still
provides a gain of 10. The output of Circuit 1 will not change the gain of Circuit 2, since the
output resistance of an OP AMP circuit is very small. The overall gain will be (10)(!10) = !100,
as requested.
