    Name: Sample Test 2 Electricity Duration : 60 min
    This exam, including four obligatory exercises, is formed of two pages.
    The use of non-programmable calculators is allowed

    Exercise 1: (4 points) AC voltage


    The adjacent document (Doc 1) represents the waveform of
    an alternating voltage u delivered, across its terminals, by a
    low frequency generator (LFG).
    The maximum value of the voltage u is Um = 11 V where as
    the voltage measured by the voltmeter is 6.35 V.
    Given Vb = 5 ms/div.

    Choose, with justification, the correct answer.


    1) The type of the voltage is:
    a) Sinusoidal b) triangular c) DC
    2) The vertical sensitivity is:
    a) 2 V/div b) 5 V/div c) 10 V/div
    3) The frequency is: (Doc 1)
    a) 0.052 Hz b) 52.64 Hz c) 1315 Hz
    4) The relation between the maximum and effective voltage is:
    𝑈𝑚 𝑈𝑚 𝑈𝑚
    a) = √2 b) = √3 c) = √5
    𝑈 𝑈 𝑈

    Exercise 2: (6.5 points) Laws of voltages and laws of current


    The circuit, shown in the document
    (Doc 2), consists of:
     A battery supplying across its
    terminals a constant voltage:
    UPN = 20 V.
     A switch k.
     Three electric components D1, D2
    and D3.

    1. Switch k is open
    1.1. Determine the value of voltage and current across the three electric components D1, D2 and D3.
    1.2. Indicate the voltage across open switch.

    2. Switch k is closed
    2.1. Specify the voltage UPA across closed switch.
    2.2. Redraw the figure with an ammeter that measures the main current send by the dry cell.
    2.3. Draw on the same circuit a voltmeter that measures the voltage UBA.
    2.4. Determine the voltage across the component D2 if the voltmeter indicates “- 12 V”.
    2.5. Determine the voltage across component D3.
    2.6. The main electric current carried by the battery is I; I1 is the current carried by component
    D1, ; I2 is the current carried component D2; and I3 is the current carried by component D3.
    Indicate on the previous diagram the direction of current through each component.
    2.7. If I = 100 mA and I2 = 40 mA. Determine currents I1 then I3.

    Exercise 3: (4 points) Electrical appliances
    The given schematic diagram, in document (Doc 3), represents the domestic electric installations of
    a house. It contains:
     13 lamps ( 0.2 A each)
     T. V of 1 A
     an iron of 3 A
     a refrigerator of 2 A
     a washing machine of 6 A

    1) These electrical appliances are connected


    in parallel. Why?
    2) To identify the terminals of a wall outlet
    we can use a tester. Name the tester and
    explain how it is used.
    3) Explain the risks (dangers) of the voltage
    of the mains. (Doc 3)
    4) Name the protections that are installed in
    the house in document 3. Give the role of each one.
    5) Determine the maximum current that must be supported by the circuit breaker in the house.

    Exercise 4: (5.5 points) The effect of variation of the resistance of rheostat


    The aim of the exercise is to study the effect of variation of the resistance of rheostat on the current
    in the circuit.
    For this aim, consider a circuit, connected in series, consists of:
    -Dry cell of voltage U = 12 V.
    -A resistor R = 20 .
    -A rheostat of variable resistance 0   Rh  100 .
    -An ammeter of negligible resistance.
    -A switch k.
    1- Draw the above circuit.
    𝑈
    2- Show that the main current sent by dry cell is given by: I = 𝑅+𝑅ℎ .
    3-3.1- Copy and complete the following table.

    Rh () 0 10 40 60 100
    I (mA)

    3.2- Plot, on a graph paper, the variation of the current I as function of resistance of rheostat Rh
    using the following scale:
    horizontally: 1 cm for 10 
    vertically: 1 cm for 100 mA
    3.3- According to the graph, does the main current increase or decrease when the resistance of the
    rheostat increases?
    4- Determine the voltage across the resistor R as function of resistance of the rheostat Rh.
    5- Indicate if the voltage across the resistor R increases or decreases when the resistance of the
    rheostat decreases.
