can u help me about this question?
How far have you gotten? Show us your work.
how can i calculate total resistance? that is can i calculate just 220 ohm there?Yes if you make two assumptions: That the ammeter has zero resistance (a perfect ammeter); that the resistor shown as variable is set to the resistance written next to it, 2.2kΩ.
You are given the voltage across the zener. The voltage across the ammeter/220Ω/2.2kΩ is the same as the zener voltage so you can calculate the total resistance of this branch and therefore the current through it (IL).
You are given the voltage at both sides of the 100Ω resistor so you can calculate the current through it.
Now Kirchoff's first law will give you the current through the zener.
2200+220 ? namelyWhat about the 2.2kΩ?
Does that seem right to you?2200+220 ? namely
i did 10-5.6 / 100 = 0.044 A = Iz and then 5.6/220+2.2k= 2.3mA=IL and then already vo=vz namely vo=5.6V But this is wrong.Does that seem right to you?
Is the current in the 100Ω resistor equal to the current in the zener?i did 10-5.6 / 100 = 0.044 A = Iz
if i sketch 100ohm's next to ix , namely, ix=iz+iL =2.3mA+56mA= 58.3mA= ix ?????Is the current in the 100Ω resistor equal to the current in the zener?
You found IL in post #11but i couldn't find iL
Yes.if i draw 100ohm's next to Ix current, ix=iz+iL is this true ?
iz= 5.6/100= 56mA so that iz=56mA and then il=2.3mAYes.
10/100= 0.1A = ix therefore, 0.1A= 2.3*10^-3+ iz if i solve this equation, iz= 97.7mA is it true?ix = iz + iL Correct.
Now ix is the current in the 100Ω. So what is the voltage across that resistor and therefore what is the current?
The voltage across the 100Ω is not 10V. Use the right voltage and then do that sum above again.10/100= 0.1A = ix therefore, 0.1A= 2.3*10^-3+ iz if i solve this equation, iz= 97.7mA is it true?
5.6/100= 56mA=ixThe
The voltage across the 100Ω is not 10V. Use the right voltage and then do that sum above again.
