Grade 11 Mathematics Quiz: Topic - Electronics

Instructions

Answer the following questions to the best of your ability. Each question requires an open-ended response, and you will need to demonstrate your understanding of mathematics in the context of electronics.


Questions

  1. Ohm's Law states the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R). Write the formula representing Ohm's Law and explain what each variable stands for.

  2. In a circuit, if the resistance is halved while keeping the voltage constant, how does this affect the current? Provide a mathematical explanation.

  3. Calculate the total resistance in a series circuit with three resistors: 10 ohms, 20 ohms, and 30 ohms. Show your work and state the final resistance value.

  4. A circuit has a power supply that provides 240 volts with a load that draws 10 amps of current. Calculate the power consumed by the circuit. Include the formula used in your calculations.

  5. In a parallel circuit with two resistors of equal value (5 ohms each), derive the formula for the total resistance and calculate it.

  6. Define capacitance and explain how it is measured. Provide the unit of measurement and its relation to charge and voltage.

  7. Explain the difference between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). Include their applications in everyday electronics.

  8. Given a circuit with a capacitor that has a capacitance of 10 microfarads charged to a voltage of 50 volts, calculate the energy stored in the capacitor. Provide the formula used.

  9. Describe what is meant by 'voltage drop' in a circuit, and explain how it occurs across resistors in series.

  10. If an inductor has an inductance of 2 henries and the current through it increases at a rate of 3 amperes per second, calculate the induced electromotive force (EMF) across the inductor. Define the relevant formula.

  11. When connecting multiple capacitors in series, their total capacitance can be calculated. Derive the formula used for calculating the total capacitance of three capacitors in series.

  12. Discuss the significance of the power factor in an AC circuit. How is it calculated and what does it indicate about the circuit's efficiency?

  13. A resistor rated at 5 watts is used in a circuit. What is the maximum current that can safely pass through this resistor if it is connected to a voltage of 10 volts? Show your calculations.

  14. In a circuit, if the frequency of the AC voltage is doubled, explain how this affects the reactance of an inductor. Include the formula for inductive reactance.

  15. Explain what a diode does in an electronic circuit and the mathematical representation of its current-voltage characteristic.
