Consider NiMH hobbyist batteries depicted in Figure P2.39. a. If V1 = 12.0V, R1 = 0.15?, and Ro = 2.55 ?, find the load current Io and the power dissipated by the load. b. If battery 2 with V2 = 12 V and R2 = 0.28? is placed in parallel with battery 1, will the load current Io increase or decrease? Will the power dissipated by the load increase or decrease? By how much?
What will be an ideal response?
Known quantities:
Schematic of the circuit in Figure P2.39.
Find:
a) If , the load current and the power dissipated by the load
b) If a second battery is connected in parallel with battery 1with , determine the variations in the load current and in the power dissipated by the load due to the parallel connection with a second battery.
