    This document is a prelim exam from the College of Engineering at Camarines Norte State College in the Philippines for the course Basic Electrical Engineering. The exam contains two sections - a true/false section with 10 questions testing basic concepts of electrical engineering, and a problem solving section with 6 questions requiring calculations related to circuits, resistors, voltage, current, and Ohm's law. It was administered in the first semester of the 2020-2021 academic year to evaluate students' understanding of foundational electrical engineering topics covered up to that point.

    TEST I: TRUE or FALSE – Choose the correct answer in the following question.
    1. A single-line diagram is also called a one-line diagram.
    a. True b. False
    2. Color coding is shown on a wiring or connection diagram.

    conditions.
    a. True b. False
    4. Variable resistors are used to vary or change the amount of resistance in a circuit. Variable resistors are
    called potentiorneters or rheostats.

    5. A series circuit is a circuit in which there is only one path for current to flow along.
    a. True b. False
    6. When there is a voltage drop across a resistance, one end must be more positive or more negative than
    the other end.
    a. True b. False
    7. We found that Ohm’s law could be used for total values in a series circuit as well as for individual parts
    of the circuit.
    a. True b. False
    8. A parallel circuit is a circuit in which two or more components are connected across the same voltage
    source.
    a. True b. False
    9. It is sometimes necessary to find the individual branch currents in a parallel circuit if the resistances and
    total current are known, but the voltage across the resistance bank is not known.
    a. True b. False
    10. When two resistances are connected in parallel, the voltage across each is the same
    a. True b. False

    TEST II Problem Solving – Solve the following problems and show a complete solution.
    11 – 16. Since an electric circuit is a path for current to flow through, a break in this path would stop current
    flow. Switches are simply ways to break this path or to control the flow of current. Some more
    symbols for switches are shown in Fig. 2-10. To remember these switches, think of the number of
    poles as the number of wires coming to either side of the switch. The throws can be thought of as
    the number of on positions. Answer the following questions:
    (a) The number of wires coming to each side of a double-pole switch is _____
    (b) The number of on positions a DPST switch has is _____
    (c) The number of on positions a DPDT switch has is _____

    17 – 19. A circuit consists of a 6-V battery, a switch, and a lamp. When the switch is closed, 2 A flows in the
    circuit. What is the resistance of the lamp?
    20 – 22. A voltage of 20V is measured across a 200-R resistor. What is the current flowing through the
    resistor?
    23 – 28. Find the voltage at points A and B with respect to ground (Fig. 4-29).

    29 – 34. Find I2 and I4 in the parallel current-divider circuit (Fig. 5-36).
