Quiz 5-6 Answers

  1. LaTeX: R_{Tot}=4700Ω   
    1. Note: some students may want to put 4.7 kΩ, but the answer asks for Ω.
    2. The student should measure between 4465 and 4935 Ω.
  2. LaTeX: R_{Tot}=\:240\:+\:680\:=\:920Ω 
    1. The student should measure between 874 and 966 Ω
  3. There is infinite resistance between these 2 resistors.
    1. There is infinite resistance between these 2 resistors.
  4. R1 and R2 should be 390 and 430Ω to get a total of 820 Ω
    1. The student should measure between 779 and 861 Ω.
  5. There will be differences. Most often, the measured value is lower. Also, each resistor has a tolerance. Most of ours are + or - 5%.
