Chapter 2, Problem 53E
For the circuit in Fig. 2.39, suppose that the resistor R2 represents a very sensitive and expensive piece of electronics. To ensure that the equipment is not damaged, R1 is incorporated to represent a fuse, with a rating of 5 A and resistance of 0.1 Ω. If the voltage source is 12 V, what is the lowest resistance that could be encountered as a short circuit condition for R2 before blowing the fuse?
