19ECE04C Electric Circuits (2) Problem-Based Project

Instructions to Students

• The Problem based project is consisted of 6 problems.

• Assume any missing data or direction you need to solve the problems.
• The set of problems is based on each student ID number. So the key will
instruct you how to obtain the values mentioned on each problem.
• Any student ID no= XXAABC, which means if student ID =101953so:
o XX=10
o AA=19
o B=5, and C=3.
• R1=BC in Ω, R1=2*R2, R3=2*R1.
• Some of the below problems is having 2 models if C is even number the choice
will be model1 (C=0 is even number) else the choice will be model 2.
• Some of the below problems is having 3 models if :
o C < 4 so the choice will be model3.
o C >6 so the choice will be model2.
o Else(C is equal to 4, 5, or 6) the choice will be model 1.
o If any number of AA is equal to zero then its value will be 55.
o After choosing the models if you need B or C individually as a value of
an element and B or C individually each is equal to zero, then zero in
value will be replaced by 4.
• If student ID is having more than 6 digit remove the last digit (from the right
side. For example if the ID=1044674 so the number will be 104467.
