4. A certain current source provides 100 mA to a 1K load. If the resistance is decreased to

500 what the current in the load?

5. Find the conductance for each of the following resistance

values:

a)25 Ω
b)100 Ω

6. Show the placement of an ammeter and a voltmeter to

measure the current and the source voltage in the
figure 1.

7. What is the basic difference between a rheostat and a

potentiometer?

8. Name Two resistance sensors and the physical quantity Figure 1.

that affects their resistance.

9. In figure 2, how much voltage does

each meter indicate when the switch is:

(a) In position 1?
(b) In position 2?

circuit?

11. What is the difference between a fuse and a

circuit breaker?

12. Trace the current path in figure 3 with the

switch in position 2.

13. Devise a switch arrangement whereby two

voltage sources (Vs1 and Vs2) can be connected
simultaneously to either of two resistors Figure 3
(R1 and R2) as follows:

VS1 connected to R2 and VS2 connected to R1

Or
VS1 connected to R1 and VS2 connected to R2
