Question

Draw figures to explain your calculations Write down the relevant formulas Express your answers in SI units. Put a box around your final answers. Switch S shown in the figure has been closed for a long time (stead state), and the electric circuit carries a constant current. The power delivered to R_2 equals P_2. (Draw equivalent circuits for extra points.) (a) Calculate the charge Q_2 on C_2. (Express your answer in terms of P_2, R_2 and C_2.) (b) Calculate the EMF epsilon of the battery. (Express your answer in terms of P_2, R_2 and R_1.) (c) Now the switch is opened. After a long time (steady state), what is the new charge on C_2. (Express your answer in terms of C_1, C_2 and epsilon.)

Explanation / Answer

battery EMF

E = I*Req

Req = (R1+R2)

E = I*(R1+R2)

P2 = I^2*R2

I = sqrt(P2/R2)

E = sqrt(P2/R2) * (R1+R2)
