The performance of the starter circuit in a car can be significantly degraded by a small amount of corrosion on a battery terminal. Figure 26–88a depicts a properly functioning circuit with a battery (12.5-V emf, 0.02-Ω internal resistance) attached via corrosion-free cables to a starter motor of resistance Rs = 0.15Ω. Sometime later, corrosion between a battery terminal and a starter cable introduces an extra series resistance of only RC = 0.10Ω into the circuit as suggested in Fig. 26–88b. Let P0 be the power delivered to the starter in the circuit free of corrosion, and let P be the power delivered to the starter with corrosion. Determine the ratio P/P0.

Step 1: Start by understanding the circuit. In the first case (corrosion-free), the total resistance in the circuit is the sum of the internal resistance of the battery (Rᵢ = 0.02Ω) and the resistance of the starter motor (Rₛ = 0.15Ω). In the second case (with corrosion), an additional resistance R_C = 0.10Ω is introduced in series, so the total resistance becomes Rᵢ + Rₛ + R_C.
Step 2: Use Ohm's Law to calculate the current in each case. The current in the corrosion-free circuit is I₀ = ε / (Rᵢ + Rₛ), where ε is the emf of the battery (12.5 V). For the circuit with corrosion, the current is I = ε / (Rᵢ + Rₛ + R_C).
Step 3: Recall that the power delivered to the starter motor is given by P = I²Rₛ. For the corrosion-free circuit, the power is P₀ = I₀²Rₛ. For the circuit with corrosion, the power is P = I²Rₛ.
Step 4: Substitute the expressions for I₀ and I into the power formulas. For P₀, substitute I₀ = ε / (Rᵢ + Rₛ) into P₀ = I₀²Rₛ. For P, substitute I = ε / (Rᵢ + Rₛ + R_C) into P = I²Rₛ.
Step 5: Calculate the ratio P/P₀. This is given by (I²Rₛ) / (I₀²Rₛ). Simplify the ratio using the expressions for I and I₀, which results in P/P₀ = [(Rᵢ + Rₛ) / (Rᵢ + Rₛ + R_C)]². This is the final expression for the ratio of the power delivered to the starter motor with and without corrosion.

Ohm's Law

Ohm's Law states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage (V) across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance (R) of the conductor. This relationship is expressed mathematically as V = IR. Understanding this law is crucial for analyzing how changes in resistance, such as those caused by corrosion, affect the current and power in an electrical circuit.

Resistance and Ohm's Law

Power in Electrical Circuits

The power (P) delivered in an electrical circuit can be calculated using the formula P = IV, where I is the current and V is the voltage. Additionally, power can also be expressed in terms of resistance as P = I²R or P = V²/R. This concept is essential for determining how the introduction of additional resistance from corrosion affects the overall power delivered to the starter motor.

Series Resistance

In a series circuit, the total resistance is the sum of the individual resistances. When corrosion introduces an additional resistance, it increases the total resistance in the circuit, which in turn reduces the current flowing through the circuit according to Ohm's Law. This concept is vital for understanding how the performance of the starter motor is impacted by the added resistance from corrosion.

Measurements made on circuits that contain large resistances can be confusing. Consider a circuit powered by a battery ε = 15.000 V with a 10.00-MΩ resistor in series with an unknown resistor R. As shown in Fig. 26–92, a particular voltmeter reads V1 = 366 mV when connected across the 10.00 -MΩ resistor and this meter reads V2 = 7.317 V when connected across R. Determine the value of R. [Hint: Define RV as the voltmeter’s internal resistance.]

The circuit shown in Fig. 26–89 is a primitive 4-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC). In this circuit, to represent each digit (2n) of a binary number, a “1” has the nᵗʰ switch closed whereas zero (“0”) has the switch open. For example, 0010 is represented by closing switch n = 1, while all other switches are open. Show that the voltage V across the 1.0 - Ω resistor for the binary numbers 0001, 0010, 0100, and 1010 (which represent 1, 2, 4, 10) follows the pattern that you expect for a 4-bit DAC.
