Chapter 3, Problem 59P
- Using the characteristics of Fig. 3.38, determine the resistance of the photoconductive cell at 10 and 100 foot-candles of illumination. As in Problem 58, note that it is a log scale.
- Does the cell have a positive or a negative illumination coefficient?
- Is the coefficient a fixed value for the range 0.1 to 1000 foot-candles? Why?
- What is the approximate rate of change of R with illumination at 10 foot-candles?

ESSAY: What are your observations on the given table. How forward bias condition and reverse bias condition affects voltage and current?
This data is simulated using tinkercad. A series circuit with battery, 1 diode and 1 resistor (100ohms).
You can notice in 2nd column the batteries used in every row. Tinkercad AA battery is equivalent to 1.50 volts. Note that they are only different with the number of batteries used but the resistor(100ohms) and diode remains one only.
Nichrome ribbon resistor elements each has a resistance of 1 ohm. The element is made from sheet of nichrome alloy, 0.025cm thick. If the width of the ribbon is 0.3cm, what length is required per element? Assume specific resistance of nichrome allow to be 109micro ohm-cm.
The resistance of a resistor at 7 degrees Celsius is given as 42 ohms. Determine the resistance, in ohms, of the said resistor at 25 degrees Celsius. The
temperature coefficient at 0 degrees Celsius is 0.0086 per Celsius degree.
