Listed below are the homework assignments for the entire
course. Before attempting the problems for a particular unit, first
complete that unit's reading assignment and e-Lesson.
All problems are from Thomas Floyd's Principles of Electric Circuits (7th
edition).
- Show your work for any problem that requires a calculation.
- Unless otherwise specified, record all answers in engineering
notation, rounded to three significant digits.
- For odd-numbered problems, check your answers against
the answers at the back of the book.

Problems 23, 24, 25, 36, 43, 45*, 46*, 47, 48, 50 on pages
285-290.
*In Problems 45 and 46, if a meter reading is not correct, say
what the reading should be.
Homework #6 (Unit 6:
Circuit Theorems):
Problems 2*, 4*, 5, 6, 7, 8 on pages 336-337.
*As part of your answers to Problems 2 and 4, draw diagrams of your equivalent
current sources and voltage sources.
Homework #7 (Unit 7:
More Circuit Theorems):
Problems 12, 17, 18, 26, 27 on pages 338-341.
Homework #8 (Unit 8:
Capacitors in DC Circuits):
If you have the 8th edition of Thomas Floyd's Principles
of Electric Circuits, turn in solutions to Problems 1, 2, 4,
5, 16, 21, 22, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 31, 32,
and 39* on pages 517-520.
If you have the 7th edition of Thomas Floyd's Principles
of Electric Circuits, turn in solutions to Problems 1, 2, 4,
14, 19, 20, 23, 24, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30,
and 37* on pages 549-551. Also answer the
following:
How much energy is stored in a 1000 µF capacitor that is charged
to 500 V?
* For Problem #39 in the 8th edition (or Problem
#37 in the 7th edition), the book gives an answer of 3.00 µs,
but the correct answer is 3.23 µs.
Homework #9 (Unit 9:
Inductors in DC Circuits):
If you have the 8th edition of Thomas Floyd's Principles
of Electric Circuits, turn in solutions to Problems 1, 2, 13,
14, 17, 18, 19, 20, and 21 on pages 557-559.
