Question 1 - Consider an ohmic circuit with equivalent resistance (impedance) constant of

220 Ohms and that has a load defined according to the following functions:

Based on this, determine the current intensity at t=3s well as the potential difference
registered in the circuit and the power consumed at the same time under analysis. Also
explain what would happen were it not an ohmic circuit. Give examples.

Question 2 - Consider the electrical potential difference between the distribution of negative
charges at the base of a cloud (shown alongside) and the ground to be of the order of

Simply put, consider a height of 1.5 km between the cloud base and the earth.

Based on this describe and determine:

a) The best approximation for the modulus of the electric field vector between the cloud and
the ground;
b) The equivalent capacitance of the ground-to-cloud system;
c) The existence or not of equipotential surfaces (indicating their locations, if any).
d) Describe the dielectric of this capacitor
Question 3 - Calculate the equivalent (or total) resistance at points A and B and the current
intensity when the given circuit is subjected to a potential difference of 12 V considering the
resistors discriminated in the figure itself. (Deduce the resulting expression and only then
calculate the values numerics). After this is done, suppose they are capacitors with their
respective capacitances and also determine the equivalent capacitance.

Question 4 - Usually, electrical appliances have an instruction manual or a nameplate that


informs the power they absorb from the electrical network to work. However, if this
information is not available, it is possible to obtain it using the electricity meter at the
entrance to the residence. In addition to dials that allow you to read each month's
consumption, the meter has a disk that spins when electrical energy is being consumed. The
more energy consumed, the faster the disc turns. Using this meter, a student proceeded
from the following way to find out the electrical potency of a device he owned.

With this initially, he unplugged all the appliances from the sockets and turned off all the
lights. The disk has ceased to spin. Then he turned on only a light bulb of known wattage,
and measured the time it took the disk to make a complete turn. Continuing, he connected
two, then three, then four, known lamps, repeating the measurement procedure. From the
data obtained, he constructed a graph of the time spent by the disk to make a complete
revolution as a function of the power absorbed by the network, shown in the graph below.
Finally, turning on only the device whose power he wanted to know, he observed that the
disk took approximately 30 s to make a complete revolution. Based on this determine:

a) What is the potency (power) of the device?


b) Are the time spent by the disk and the power absorbed directly proportional or inversely
proportional quantities? Justify your answer.
