A set of circuit analysis problems from the eecs 40, fall 2006 midterm 1 exam. The problems involve constructing differential equations, finding closed-form expressions, plotting voltage over time, and determining thevenin equivalents. Students are expected to use techniques such as nodal analysis and thevenin equivalent circuits to solve the problems.

Don't miss anything!
(a) (12 pts) Construct the differential equation of V Hint: you may solve this use Mesh of Nodal analysis, or even simpler, Thevnin equivalent out in terms of all the given quantities. circuit. Write all your steps.
(b) (5pts) Write a closed-form expression for Vout (t) for t>
(c) (8 pts) Plot V points: starting value, 1 time constant value, value at infinityout as a function of time t = 0 to t = 100ms. Label the y-axis and all key
(d) (5pts) As t approaches infinity, what value will i 3 approach?
(e) (5 pts) Now, suppose someone disturbed the circuit and S1 is re-opened at 40 ms again!Construct the new differential equation.
(f) (6pts) What is the new time constant? What is the new expression for Vout (t) for t>40 ms.
(g) (5pts) in this case, as t approached infinity, what value will i 3 approach?
(h) (5pts) plot the newV40 ms. Label the y-axis and all key points: out from t = 0ms to 100 ms to include the re-opening of the switch at starting value, value at switching point, 1 time constant values, value at infinity.
(e) (5 pts) Solve for Vout (this is simply the Thevenin Voltage)
(f) Now we short the two end terminals
(5 pts) What is V 1?
(g) (5 pts) What is Vx?
(h) (5 pts) what is Isc?
(i) (5 pts) what is the Thevenin Resistance?
(j) (5 pts) draw the Thevernin Equivalent Circuit.
