Question A-004-004-003

When discussing a power supply the_______ resistance is equal to the output voltage divided by the total current drawn, including the current drawn by the bleeder resistor:

Correct Answer

load

Explanation

The equivalent load resistance (R_load) as seen by the power supply is calculated by Ohm's Law: R_load = V_output / I_total_drawn, where I_total_drawn includes current to the actual load and any internal paths like a bleeder resistor.
