Figure 2 shows a simplified model of a gas-discharge
lamp. One characteristic of these lamps is that they
exhibit negative resistance; in other words, as current
increases the voltage drops further, making such
lamps inherently unstable. As such, a current-limiting
ballast is required. For the connection shown in the
figure:
1. Find the equivalent Thevenin circuit of the lamp.
2. Find the ballast resistance needed to limit the
current drawn from a 24-volt source to 6 amperes.
Two resistors R1 and R2 of 12 Q and 6 N
are connected in parallel and this
combination is connected in series with a
6.25 Q resistance R3 and a battery which
has an internal resistance (in series with
the battery e.m.f.) of 0.25 2. Determine
the e.m.f. of the battery.
(note: the current through 6 ohms is 0.8 A)
