A voltage regulator with a no- load dc output of 15 V is connected to a load with a resistance of 12 ▲. If the load voltage decreases to 14.5 V, the percent regulation would be
A)96.7%.
B)100%.
C)3.45%.
D)3.33%.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The percent regulation is calculated as $\frac{V_{no-load} - V_{load}}{V_{load}} \times 100\% = \frac{15 - 14.5}{14.5} \times 100\% = 3.45\%$.
