Chapter 6, Problem 6.9P
Consider a deflection bridge arrangement as shown in Figure 6.13. Initially all four arms of the bridge are equal to 120 ft. The resistance Ry is a sensor, whose resistance changes with input. The supply voltage to the bridge is 9 V dc. If the resistance R\ changes such that the bridge output is 0.5 V, determine the value of and the current flow through R\.

2. Figure 1 shows a sensor consists of a core, an armature and a variable air gap. The core with
3.0 cm depth and 10000 relative permeability has 200 coil turns. On the other hand, the armature
is a steel plate of thickness 0.2 cm and has similar relative permeability with the core. Assuming
the relative permeability of air is unity and the permeability of free space is equal to 4x x 10-7
H.m, calculate the inductance of the sensor for air gaps of 0 mm and 2 mm. Please write the
answers in 3 decimal places.

Figure I
A defibrillator passes a brief burst of current through the heart to restore normal beating. In one such defibrillator, a 36.4-μF capacitor is charged to 6.00 kV. Paddles are used to make an electric connection to the patient’s chest. A pulse of current lasting 1.00 ms partially discharges the capacitor through the patient. The electrical resistance of the patient (from paddle to paddle) is 240 Ω.
How much energy is dissipated in the patient during the 1.00 ms? (need answer in J )
