QUESTION:

The resistance \(R_{\mathrm{L}}\) in Figure DP 3-2 is the equivalent resistance of a pressure transducer. This resistance is specified to be \(200 \Omega \pm 5\) percent. That is, \(190 \Omega \leq R_{\mathrm{L}} \leq 210 \Omega\). The voltage source is a \(12 \mathrm{~V} \pm 1\) percent source capable of supplying 5 W. Design this circuit, using 5 percent, 1/8-watt resistors for \(R_1\) and \(R_2\), so that the voltage across \(R_{\mathrm{L}}\) is

                                             \(v_{\mathrm{o}}=4 \mathrm{~V} \pm 10 \%\)

(A 5 percent, 1/8-watt \(100-\Omega\) resistor has a resistance between 95 and \(105 \Omega\) and can safely dissipate 1/8-W continuously.)
