Two capacitors C1 = 3.2 ?F, C2 = 13.5 ?F are charged individually to V1 = 19.0 V, V2 = 5.6 V. The two capacitors are then connected together in parallel with the positive plates together and the negative plates together.


1.Calculate the final potential difference across the plates of the capacitors once they are connected.


2.Calculate the amount of charge (absolute value) that flows from one capacitor to the other when the capacitors are connected together.


3.By how much (absolute value) is the total stored energy reduced when the two capacitors are connected?

The rechargeable batteries for a laptop computer need a much smaller voltage than what a wall socket provides. Therefore, a transformer is plugged into the wall socket and produces the necessary voltage for charging the batteries. The batteries are rated at 9.0 V, and a current of 272 mA is used to charge them. The wall socket provides a voltage of 120 V.

This involves the following:

-DC and AC analysis and the frequency response of the amplifier.

-Use a 2N2222 transistor

-Power supply (VCC): 6 V

-An input impedance near to 3 kΩ

-Overall midband voltage gain of -30 V/V

-A load resistance of 2 kΩ

-The input signal has an RSignal of 500 Ω

-Choose a good Qpoint and select the coupling and bypass capacitors to obtain an fL-3dB of 100 Hz.

-The capacitors and resistors should have commercial values

-Part of the design requirement is that the amplifier will exhibit maximum symetrica1 swing in the voltage collector.

The Total Harmonic Distortion of the output voltage should be less than 5% when a sine wave with an amplitude of 5 mV is applied by the signal.

Determine the analytical fH-3dB of the final design of the amplifier. When the final design is completed, obtain the frequency response of the amplifier to verify the midband voltage gain, fL-3dB and fH-3dB.
