Using only this device and one or more 3-ohm resistors, design a circuit so that the device will operateproperly when connected to a source that supplies a fixed current of 6 amperes. Within the dashed-linebox in the diagram below, draw the circuit using the symbol for the device and the appropriate symbolc. Calculate the power dissipation In each 3-ohm resistor used in the circuit in part b.Solution 1980B2The resistance of the device is found from R = V/I = 6 Ω. With a 24 volt source, to provide a current of 2 Arequires a total resistance of 12 Ω. For the additional 6 Ω resistance, place two 3 Ω resistors in series with thedevice.b. Since the device requires 2 A, a resistor in parallel with the device must carry a current of 6 A – 2 A = 4 A. Inparallel with the device, the resistor will have a potential difference of 12 V so must have a resistance of V/I =3 Ω. Thus, a single 3 Ω resistor in parallel will suffice.c.
