Chapter 2. RESISTIVE CIRCUITS

RESISTIVE CIRCUITS

THE LEARNING GOALS FOR THIS CHAPTER ARE:

  • Be able to use Ohm's law to solve electric circuits

  • Be able to apply Kirchhoff's current law and Kirchhoffs voltage law to solve electric circuits

  • Know how to analyze single-loop and single-node-pair circuits

  • Know how to combine resistors in series and parallel

  • Be able to use voltage and current division to solve simple electric circuits

  • Understand when and how to apply wye-delta transformations in the analysis of electric circuits

  • Know how to analyze electric circuits containing dependent sources

Tesla Roadster Green technologies come in many colors. The 2010 Tesla Roadster, for example, comes in Fusion Red, Arctic White, Racing Green and Electric Blue, to name a few. An environmentally friendly sports car that seats two, this convertible has rocket acceleration and hugs the road like a dream; it's the world's first high-performance electric car. The Roadster contains over 6,800 safe, rechargeable lithiumion batteries that weigh about 1,000 pounds in total. It is twice as efficient as hybrid cars that combine a gasoline engine and an electric motor to provide propulsion, but its fantastic performance comes at a cost of over $100,000.

Choosing between an all-electric vehicle and a hybrid requires trade-offs on a wide range of criteria: performance, cost, efficiency, effects on the environment, safety, and reliability. Handling ...
