Exercise#1.

1. The circuit shown in Figure, is the dc equivalent of a simple residential power distribution system. Each of the resistances labeled R1 and R2 represents various parallel-connected loads, such as lights or devices plugged into outlets that nominally operate at 120 V, while R3 represents a load, such as the heating element in an oven that nominally operates at 240 V. The resistances labeled Rw represent the resistances of wires. Rn represents the “neutral” wire. a. Use mesh-current analysis to determine the voltage magnitude for each load. b. Now suppose that due to a fault in the wiring at the distribution panel, the neutral wire becomes an open circuit. Again, compute the voltages across the loads and comment on the probable outcome for a sensitive device such as a computer or plasma television that is part of the 15Ω load.

2. Find the Thevenin’s equivalent for the circuit shown below. What effect does the 7Ω resistor have on the equivalent circuit? Justify....
