The resistance R3 & R4 are connected in series = (30 + 70) = 100Ω Now three resistor i.e 100Ω, 100Ω & 50Ω is connected in parallel 1/Rp = 1/100 + 1/100 + 1/50 Rp = 100/4 = 25 Ω Resistance 50Ω and 25Ω are connected in series. Rtotal = (50 + 25)Ω Rtotal = 75Ω
During the positive half cycle of the supply, diodes D1 and D2 conduct are forward biased and conduct current while diodes D3 and D4 are reverse biased and they act as an open circuit, the current flows through the load.
The centrifugal switch is used to disconnect the starting winding of the motor once the motor approaches its normal operating speed i.e 50% – 70% speed.
Galvanized steel conductors do not corrode, and possess high resistance. Hence such Wires are used in telecommunications circuits, earth wires, guard wire, stray wire, etc.
