82 kM 18 V 36 kN
(a) Assume that the voltage source shown is the correct value, but there is some problem with the connections in the rest of the circuit. What are the maximum and minimum possible voltages at the output of the circuit.
The circuit shown is a voltage divider circuit. The output of the voltage divider circuit is given by:
Where,
The supplied voltage is “VS”,
The resistor across which the output is measured is “RO” which is 36 kΩ,
The resistor in series with the supplied voltage is “RS” which is 82 kΩ.
The maximum value of the output voltage is occurred when the voltage source is connected in the circuit with the same polarity as shown in question.
When polarity of voltage source is same as shown in question the supplied voltage is 18 V and the output of the circuit is given by:
