Get started for freeA rule of thumb used to determine the internal resistance of a source is that it is the open circuit voltage divide by the short circuit current. Is this correct? Why or why not?
In the circuit, in Fig. E26.47 the capacitors are initially uncharged, the battery has no internal resistance, and the ammeter is idealized. Find the ammeter reading (a) just after the switch S is closed and (b) after S has been closed for a very long time.
An idealized ammeter is connected to a battery as shown in Fig.
E25.28. Find (a) the reading of the ammeter, (b) the current through the
resistor, (c) the terminal voltage of the battery.

A fuse is a device designed to break a circuit, usually by melting when the current exceeds a certain value. What characteristics should the material of the fuse have?
The energy that can be extracted from a storage battery is always less than the energy that goes into it while it is being charged. Why?
