Answer:
The area of solar panel needed in Buffalo is 22.83 m²
The area of solar panel needed in Phoenix is 31 m²
Explanation:
FOR BUFFALO:
First we, calculate the the annual power requirement by dividing the energy by the time of 1 year.
Therefore,
Power Requirement = P = 6000 KWhr/(1 yr)(365 days/yr)(24 hr/day)
P = 684.93 W
Now, to calculate the area we use the formula:
Area = A = P/(Annual Insolation)(Conversion Factor)
A = 684.93 W/(200 W/m²)(0.15)
A = 22.83 m²
FOR PHOENIX:
First we, calculate the the annual power requirement by dividing the energy by the time of 1 year.
Therefore,
Power Requirement = P = 11000 KWhr/(1 yr)(365 days/yr)(24 hr/day)
P = 1255.7 W
Now, to calculate the area we use the formula:
Area = A = P/(Annual Insolation)(Conversion Factor)
A = 1255.7 W/(270 W/m²)(0.15)
A = 31 m²
Light from a helium-neon laser (λ = 633 nm) illuminates two slits spaced 0.50 mm apart. A viewing screen is 2.5 m behind the slits. What is the spacing between two adjacent bright fringes?
The spacing between two adjacent bright fringes, when a helium-neon laser with a wavelength of 633 nm illuminates two slits 0.50 mm apart and a screen is placed 2.5 m behind the slits, is 3.16 mm.
Explanation:To answer the question on the spacing between two adjacent bright fringes for a helium-neon laser with a wavelength (λ) of 633 nm illuminating two slits spaced 0.50 mm apart, with a viewing screen 2.5 m behind the slits, we use the formula for the fringe spacing in a double-slit interference pattern, Δy = (λL) / d, where Δy is the fringe spacing, λ is the wavelength of the light, L is the distance from the slits to the screen, and d is the distance between the slits.
Given λ = 633 nm = 633 × 10-9 m, L = 2.5 m, and d = 0.50 mm = 0.50 × 10-3 m, plugging these values into the formula gives:
Δy = (633 × 10-9 m × 2.5 m) / (0.50 × 10-3 m) = 3.16 × 10-3 m = 3.16 mm
Therefore, the spacing between two adjacent bright fringes is 3.16 mm.

Answer:
The question is incomplete, below is the complete question "The electric potential difference between the ground and a cloud in a particular thunderstorm is [tex]3.0*10^{9}V[/tex]. What is the magnitude of the change in the electric potential energy of an electron that moves between the ground and the cloud?"
Answer:
[tex]U=3.0*10^{9}eV[/tex]
Explanation:
data given,
Potential difference,V=3.0*10^9V
charge on an electron, q=1e.
Recall that the relationship between potential difference (v), charge(Q) and the potential energy(U) is expressed as
[tex]U=qV[/tex]
from the question, we asked to determine potential energy given the charge and the potential difference.
Hence if we substitute values into the equation, we arrive at
[tex]U=qV\\U=3.0*10^{9}*1e\\U=3.0*10^{9}eV[/tex]
Hence the magnitude of the change in the electric potential energy of an electron that moves between the ground and the cloud is [tex]3.0*10^{9}eV[/tex]
A horizontal curve on a two-lane highway (10-ft lanes) is designed for 50 mi/h with a 6% superelevation. The central angle of the curve is 35 degrees and the PI is at station 482 + 72. What is the station of the PTand how many feet have to be cleared from the lane's shoulder edge to provide adequate stopping sight distance?
Answer:
The PT station is at 485+20.02 and 21.92 ft are to be cleared from the lane's shoulder to provide adequate stopping sight distance.
Explanation:
From table 3.5 of Traffic Engineering by Mannering
R_v=835
R=835+(10ft/2)= 840 ft.
Now T is given as
T=R tan(Δ/2)
Here Δ is the central angle of curve given as 35°
So
T=R tan(Δ/2)
T=840 x tan(35/2)
T=840 x tan(17.5)
T=264.85
Now
STA PC=482+72-(2+64.85)=480+07.15
Also L is given as
L=(π/180)RΔ
Here R is the radius calculated as 840 ft, Δ is the angle given as 35°.
L=(π/180)RΔ
L=(π/180)x840 x35
L=512.87 ft
STA PT=480+07.15+5+12.87=485+20.02
Now Ms is the minimum distance which is given as
[tex]M_s=R_v(1-cos(\frac{90 \times SSD}{\pi Rv}))\\[/tex]
Here R_v is given as 835
SSD for 50 mi/hr is given as 425 ft from table 3.1 of Traffic Engineering by Mannering
So Ms is
[tex]M_s=R_v(1-cos(\frac{90 \times SSD}{\pi Rv}))\\M_s=835(1-cos(\frac{90 \times 425}{\pi 835}))\\M_s=26.92 ft[/tex]
Now for the clearance from the inside lane
Ms=Ms-lane length
Ms=26.92-5= 21.92 ft.
So the PT station is at 485+20.02 and 21.92 ft are to be cleared from the lane's shoulder to provide adequate stopping sight distance.
P1.30 shows a gas contained in a vertical piston– cylinder assembly. A vertical shaft whose cross-sectional area is 0.8 cm2 is attached to the top of the piston. Determine the magnitude, F, of the force acting on the shaft, in N, required if the gas pressure is 3 bar. The masses of thepiston and attached shaft are 24.5kg and 0.5kg respectively. The piston diameter is 10cm. The local atmospheric pressure is 1 bar. The piston moves smoothly in the cylinder and g=9.81 m/s2
In the process of analyzing a thermodynamic system it is important to identify what system is being worked on and the processes and properties if the system
The magnitude of the force acting on the shaft, is approximately 1,336.5 N
The reason the value for the force magnitude acting on the shaft is correct is as follows:
The known parameters are:
The cross-sectional area of the shaft, Aₐ = 0.8 cm²
The required gas pressure in the cylinder, P = 3 bar
The mass of the piston, m₁ = 24.5 kg
The mass of the shaft, m₂ = 0.5 kg
The diameter of the piston, D = 10 cm
The atmospheric pressure, Pₐ = 1 bar
Required:
The magnitude of the force F acting on the shaft
Solution:
The force due to the gas in the cylinder, [tex]\mathbf{F_{gas}}[/tex], is given as follows;
[tex]F_{gas}[/tex] = 3 bar × π × (10 cm)²/4 = 2,359.19449 N
The force due to the atmosphere, [tex]\mathbf{F_{atm}}[/tex], is given as follows;
[tex]F_{atm}[/tex] = 1 bar × ((π × (10 cm)²/4) - 0.8 cm²) ≈ 777.4 N
The force due to the piston and shaft, [tex]\mathbf{F_{ps}}[/tex], is given as follows;
[tex]F_{ps}[/tex] = (24.5 kg + 0.5 kg) × 9.81 m/s² = 245.25 N
The magnitude of the force acting on the shaft, F = [tex]F_{gas}[/tex] - ([tex]\mathbf{F_{atm}}[/tex] + [tex]\mathbf{F_{ps}}[/tex])
∴ F = 2,359.19449 N - (777.4 N + 245.25 N) ≈ 1,336.5449 N
The magnitude of the force acting on the shaft, F ≈ 1,336.5 N

Answer:
The maximum temperature of the cycle is 1065⁰R
Explanation:
The maximum temperature in degree Rankin can be obtained using the formula below;
[tex]\frac{T_2}{T_1} =[\frac{V_1}{V_2}]^{1.4-1}[/tex]
Where;
T₂ is the maximum temperature of the cycle
T₁ is the initial temperature of the cycle = 520 deg R = 520 ⁰R
V₁/V₂ is the compression ratio = 6
[tex]T_2 = T_1(\frac{V_1}{V_2})^{0.4}[/tex]
[tex]T_2=T_1(6)^{0.4}[/tex]
[tex]T_2=520^0R(6)^{0.4}[/tex]
T₂ = 1064.96 ⁰R

explain the four functional blocks on an oscilloscope and describe the major controls within each block
Answer:
The cathode ray oscilloscope (CRO) consists of a set of blocks. Those are vertical amplifier, delay line, trip circuit, time base generator, horizontal amplifier, cathode ray tube (CRT) and power supply. The CRO block diagram is shown in attached figure.
The function of each CRO block is mentioned below,
Vertical amplifier amplifies the input signal, which will be displayed on the CRT screen.
Delay line provides a certain amount of delay to the signal, which is obtained at the output of the vertical amplifier. This delayed signal is then applied to the CRT vertical deflection plates.
Trigger circuit produces a trigger signal to synchronize the horizontal and vertical deviations of the electron beam.
Time base generator produces a sawtooth signal, which is useful for horizontal deviation of the electron beam.
Horizontal amplifier amplifies the sawtooth signal and then connects it to the CRT horizontal deflection plates.
Power supply produces high and low voltages. The high negative voltage and the low positive voltage apply to CRT and other circuits respectively.
Cathode ray tube (CRT)
it is the main important block of CRO and consists mainly of four parts. Those are electronic guns, vertical deflection plates, horizontal deflection plates and fluorescent display.
The electron beam, which is produced by an electron gun, is deflected both vertically and horizontally by a pair of vertical deflection plates and a pair of horizontal deflection plates, respectively. Finally, the deflected beam will appear as a point on the fluorescent screen.
In this way, CRO will display the input signal applied on the CRT screen. So, we can analyze the signals in the time domain using CRO.
Explanation:
The oscilloscopes which is widely used for analysis purpose of circuits is divided into four main groups: the horizontal and vertical controls, the input controls and the activation controls.
Found in the front panel section marked Horizontal, the oscilloscope's horizontal controls allow users to adjust the horizontal scale of the screen. This section includes the control of the horizontal delay (displacement), as well as the control that indicates the time per division on the x-axis. The first control allows users to scan through a time range, while the latter allows users to approach a particular time range by decreasing the time per division.
Meanwhile, the oscilloscope's vertical controls are usually found in a section specifically marked as Vertical. The controls found in this section allow users to adjust the vertical appearance of the screen and include the control that indicates the number of volts per division on the axis and the grid of the screen. Also in this section is the control of the vertical displacement of the waveform, which translates the waveform up or down on the screen.
Signal activation helps provide a usable and stable display and allows users to synchronize the oscilloscope acquisition in the waveform of interest. The oscilloscope trigger controls allow users to choose the vertical trigger level, as well as the desired trigger capability. Common types of activation include fault activation, edge activation and pulse width activation.
Useful for identifying random errors or failures, the activation of faults allows users to fire at a pulse or event whose width is less than or greater than a specific period of time. This activation mode allows users to capture errors or technical problems that do not occur very frequently, which makes them very difficult to see.
The most famous trigger mode, edge tripping occurs when the voltage exceeds a set threshold value. This mode allows users to choose between shooting on a falling or rising edge.
Although pulse width activation is comparable to fault activation when users search for pulse width, it is, however, more general since it allows users to fire pulses of specified width. Users can also select the polarity of the pulses to be activated and set the horizontal position of the trigger. This allows users to see what happened during pre-shot or post-shot.
The input panels of an oscilloscope usually include two or four analog channels. They are usually numbered and have a button associated with each channel that allows users to activate and deactivate them. This section may also include a selection that allows users to specify the DC or AC coupling. Selecting the DC coupling implies that the entire signal will be input. The AC pairing, on the other hand, blocks the DC component and focuses the waveform around zero volts. Operators can also identify the probe impedance of the channels through a selection button. In adding, the input panels permit users to select the type of sampling to be used.
Define the following terms in your own words: (a) elastic strain, (b) plastic strain, (c) creep strain, (d) tensile viscosity, (e) recovery, and (f) relaxation.
Answer:
Detailed Answer is given below,
Explanation:
(a) Elastic strain
Elastic deformation is defined as the limit for the deformation values up to which the object will bounce and return to the original shape when the load is removed.
When the object is subjected to an external load, it deforms. If the load exceeds the load corresponding to the elastic limit of the object, then, after removing the load, the object cannot return to its original geometric specification.
(b) Plastic strain
Plastic Strain is a deformation that cannot be recovered after eliminating the deforming force. In other words, if the applied tension is greater than the elastic limit of the material, there will be a permanent deformation.
(c) Creep strain
The deformation of the material at a higher temperature is much more than at the normal temperature known as creep.
Subsequently, the deformation produced in heated material is called creep deformation. Creep deformation is a function of temperature.
(d) Tensile viscosity
Viscosity is a main parameter when measuring flux fluids, such as liquids, semi-solids, gases and even solids. Brookfield deals with liquids and semi-solids. Viscosity measurements are made together with the quality and efficiency of the product. Any person involved in the characterization of the flow, in research or development, quality control or transfer of fluids, at one time or another is involved with some kind of viscosity measurement.
(e) Recovery
Recovery is a process whereby deformed grains can reduce their stored energy by eliminating or reorganizing defects in their crystalline structure. These defects, mainly dislocations, are introduced by plastic deformation of the material and act to increase the elastic limit of a material.
(f) Relaxation
Stress relaxation occurs in polymers when they remain tense for long periods of time.
These alloys have very good resistance to stress relaxation and, therefore, are used as spring materials.
Stress relaxation is a gradual reduction of stress over time in constant tension.

An urn contains r red, w white, and b black balls. Which has higher entropy, drawing k ~2 balls from the urn with replacement or without replacement? Set it up and show why. (There is both a hard way and a relatively simple way to do this.)
Answer:
The case with replacement has higher entropy
Explanation:
The complete question is given:
'Drawing with and without replacement. An urn contains r red, w white and b black balls. Which has higher entropy, drawing k ≥ 2 balls from the urn with replacement or without replacement?'
Solution:
- n drawing is the same irrespective of whether there is replacement or not.
- X to denotes drawing from an urn with r red balls, w white balls and b black balls. So, n = b + r + w.
We have:
p_X(cr) = r / n
p_X(cw) = w / n
p_X(cb) = b / n
- Now, if Xi is the ith drawing with replacement then Xi are independent and p_Xi (x) = pX(x) for x e ( cr , cb , cw ).
- Now, let Yi be the ith drawing with replacement where Yi are not independent p_Yi (x) = pX(x) for x ∈ X.
- To see this, note Y1 = X and assume it is true for Yi and consider Yi+1:
p_Y(i+1) (cr) = p(Y(i+1),Yi).(cr, cr) + p(Y(i+1),Yi).(cr, cw) + p(Y(i+1),Yi).(cr, cb)
= pY(i+1)|Yi (cr|cr)*pYi (cr) +pY(i+1)|Yi (cr|cw)*pYi (cw) + pY(i+1)|Yi (cr|cb)*pYi (cb)
= r*( r - 1 )/n*(n-1) + w*r/n*(n-1) + b*r/n*(n-1) = r / n = p_X(cr)
- This means, using the chain rule and the conditioning theore m:
H(Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn) = H(Y1) + H(Y2|Y1) + H(Y3|Y2, Y1) + ... H(Yn|Yn−1, . . . , Y1)
=< SUM H(Yi) = n*H(X) = H(X1, X2, . . . , Xn)
- with equality if and only if the Yi were independent:
H(Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn) < H(X1, X2, . . . , Xn)
Answer: The case with replacement has higher entropy
A constant torque of 5 Nm is applied to an unloaded motor at rest at time t ¼ 0. The motor reaches a speed of 1800 rpm in 3 s. Assuming the damping to be negligible, calculate the motor inertia.
Answer:
The motor inertia is 7.958 X 10⁻² kg.m²
Explanation:
To determine the motor inertia, the following formula applies.
Neglecting the damping effect,
[tex]T = \frac{J}{9.55}.\frac{\delta n}{\delta T}[/tex]
Where;
T is the constant torque applied to the motor = 5Nm
J is the motor inertia = ?
δn is the change in angular speed of the motor = 1800 r/min
δT is change in time of the unloaded motor from rest = 3 sec
[tex]J = \frac{9.55* \delta T* T}{\delta n}[/tex]
[tex]J = \frac{9.55* 3* 5}{1800}[/tex] = 0.07958 kg.m² = 7.958 X 10⁻² kg.m²
Therefore, the motor inertia is 7.958 X 10⁻² kg.m²

A firm has 62 employees. During the year, there are seven first-aid cases, three medicaltreatment injuries, an accident in which an injured employee was required to work 1 week in restricted work activity, a work-related illness in which the employee lost 1 week of work, a work-related illness in which the employee lost 6 weeks of work, and a fatality resulting from an electrocution. Calculate the total incidence rate, the number-of-lostworkdays rate, and the LWDI.
Answer:
The answers to the question are
11.2967.746.45Explanation:
The number of employees in the firm = 62
Number of first-aid cases = 7
Number of medical treatment injuries = 3
Injury resulting restricted work activity = 1
Illness resulting in one week loss work day = 1
Illness resulting in loss of 6 weeks of work =1
Incident resulting in fatality = 1
Total incidence rateTotal hours worked = 40×62×50 = 124000 Hrs
Where 200,000 is the number of hours worked by Full time employees numbering 100 that work for 40 Hours a week for 50 weeks in a year
Number of recordable incident = Those incident that results in lost work days, death, restricted ability to work, or transfer to another task or more severe injury treatment beyond first aid
Therefore number recordabe incident = 7
Recordable Incident Rate is calculated by
IR = (Number of recordable incident Cases X 200,000)÷(Number of Employee labor hours worked)
= (7×200000)/124000= 11.29

Lost Workday Rate = (Total number of days lost to injury or illness)÷( Cumulative number of hours employees worked) × 200000
Total number of days lost to injury or illness = 42 days
Lost Workday Rate = (42/124000) × 200000 = 67.74
LWDI. Lost Work Day InjuryLWDI = (Number of incident resulting in lost workdays and restricted activity) ×200000 /(Total number of hours worked by all employees in one year)
LWDI = LWD×200000/ EH = 4×200000/124000 = 6.45

In a wind-turbine, the generator in the nacelle is rated at 690 V and 2.3 MW. It operates at a power factor of 0.85 (lagging) at its rated conditions. Calculate the per-phase current that has to be carried by the cables to the power electronics converter and the step-up transformer located at the base of the tower.
To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to real power in 3 phases, which is defined as the product between the phase voltage, the phase current and the power factor (Specifically given by the cosine of the phase angle). First we will find the phase voltage from the given voltage and proceed to find the current by clearing it from the previously mentioned formula. Our values are
[tex]V = 690V[/tex]
[tex]P_{real} = 2.3MW[/tex]
Real power in 3 phase
[tex]P_{real} = 3V_{ph}I_{ph} Cos\theta[/tex]
Now the Phase Voltage is,
[tex]V_{ph} = \frac{V}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]
[tex]V_{ph} = \frac{690}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]
[tex]V_{ph} = 398.37V[/tex]
The current phase would be,
[tex]P_{real} = 3V_{ph}I_{ph} Cos\theta[/tex]
Rearranging,
[tex]I_{ph}=\frac{P_{real}}{3V_{ph}Cos\theta}[/tex]
Replacing,
[tex]I_{ph}=\frac{2.3MW}{3( 398.37V)(0.85)}[/tex]
[tex]I_{ph}= 2.26kA/phase[/tex]
Therefore the current per phase is 2.26kA

What properties should the head of a carpenter’s hammer possess? How would you manufacture a hammer head?
Properties of Carpenter's hammer possess
Explanation:
1.The head of a carpenter's hammer should possess the impact resistance, so that the chips do not peel off the striking face while working.
2.The hammer head should also be very hard, so that it does not deform while driving or eradicate any nails in wood.
3.Carpenter's hammer is used to impact smaller areas of an object.It can drive nails in the wood,can crush the rock and shape the metal.It is not suitable for heavy work.
How hammer head is manufactured :
1.Hammer head is produced by metal forging process.
2.In this process metal is heated and this molten metal is placed in the cavities said to be dies.
3.One die is fixed and another die is movable.Ram forces the two dies under the forces which gives the metal desired shape.
4.The third process is repeated for several times.
Consider the following incomplete code segment, which is intended to print the sum of the digits in num. For example, when num is 12345, the code segment should print 15, which represents the sum 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5.
int num = 12345;
int sum = 0;
/* missing loop header */
{
sum += num % 10;
num /= 10;
}
System.out.println(sum);
Which of the following should replace /* missing loop header */ so that the code segment will work as intended?
while (num > 0)
A
while (num >= 0)
B
while (num > 1)
C
while (num > 2)
D
while (num > sum)
E
Answer:
A) while (num >= 0)
Explanation:
To understand why we need to focus on the module and division operation inside the loop. num % 10 divide the number by ten and take its remainder to then add this remainder to sum, the important here is that we are adding up the number in reverse order and wee need to repeat this process until we get the first number (1%10 = 1), therefore, num need to be one to compute the last operation.
A) this is the correct option because num = 1 > 0 and the last operation will be performed, and after the last operation, num = 1 will be divided by 10 resulting in 0 and 0 is not greater than 0, therefore, the cycle end and the result will be printed.
B) This can not be the option because this way the program will never ends -> 0%10 = 0 and num = 0/10 = 0
C) This can not be the option because num = 1 > 1 will produce an early end of the loop printing an incomplete result
D) The same problem than C
E) There is a point, before the operations finish, where sum > num, this will produce an early end of the loop, printing an incomplete result
Loops are program statements that are used to carry out repetitive and iterative operations
The missing loop header is (a) while (num > 0)
To calculate the sum of the digits of variable num, the following must be set to be true
The loop header must be set to keep repeating the loop operations as long as the value of variable num is more than 0
To achieve this, we make use of while loop,
And the loop condition (as described above) would be num > 0
Hence, the true option is (a) while (num > 0)

The following laboratory tests are performed on aggregate samples:a. Specific gravity and absorptionb. Soundnessc. Sieve analysis test.What are the significance and use of each of these tests (1 point each)?
Answer:
Explanation:
A- Specific gravity and Absorption Test: Specific gravity is a measure of a material’s density as compared to the density of water at 73.4°F (23°C). Therefore, by definition, water at a temperature of 73.4°F (23°C) has a specific gravity of 1. Absorption is also determined by the same test procedure and it is a measure of the amount of water that an aggregate can absorb into its pore structure.
Specific gravity is used in a number of applications including Superpave mix design, deleterious particle identification and separation and material property change identification while
B- Soundness Test : This determines an aggregate's resistance to disintegration by weathering and in particular, freeze-thaw cycles. Aggregates that are durable (resistant to weathering) are less likely to degrade in the field and cause premature HMA pavement distress and potentially failure.It is used to identify the excess amount of lime in cement.
C - Sieve analysis Test: is a practice or procedure used to assess the particle size distribution (also called gradation) of a granular material by allowing the material to pass through a series of sieves of progressively smaller mesh size and weighing the amount of material that is stopped by each sieve as a fraction of the whole mass. This test is used to describe the properties of the aggregate and to see if it is appropriate for various civil engineering purposes such as selecting the appropriate aggregate for concrete mixes and asphalt mixes as well as sizing of water production well screens.
You are designing a three-story office building (Occupancy B) with 20,000 square feet per floor. What types of construction will you be permitted to use under the IBC if you do not install sprinklers?
Answer:
not provide the sprinklers, then the type of construction will be Type II B under IBC
Explanation:
given data
3 story office building = 20,000 square feet per floor
solution
we know when sprinkler is provide in high rise building to resist fire
and it provide in building as floor area exceed allowable permissible area of building as IBC
so IBC for Type II B allowable area = 19000 square feet per floor
and type III B allowable area = 23000 square feet per floor
so when we design the building by type III B construction, the sprinklers require to provide
but not provide the sprinklers, then the type of construction will be Type II B under IBC
An engine has a hot-reservoir temperature of 970 K and a cold-reservoir temperature of 480 K. The engine operates at three-fifths maximum efficiency. What is the efficiency of the engine?
Answer:
[tex]\eta=0.303[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that
Temperature of the hot reservoir ,T₁ = 970 K
Temperature of the cold reservoir ,T₂ = 480 K
We know that only Carnot engine is the ideal engine which gives us the maximum power.The efficiency of Carnot engine is given as
[tex]\eta_{max}=1-\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}[/tex]
[tex]\eta_{max}=1-\dfrac{480}{970}[/tex]
[tex]\eta_{max}=0.505[/tex]
Therefore the efficiency of the given engine will be
[tex]\eta=\dfrac{3}{5}\eta_{max}[/tex]
[tex]\eta=\dfrac{3}{5}\times 0.505[/tex]
[tex]\eta=0.303[/tex]

b. Determine the voltage gain (vO/vI), current gain (iL/iI), and power gain (PO/PI).
Answer:
View Image
Explanation:
You didn't provide me a picture of the opamp.
I'm gonna assume that this is an ideal opamp, therefore the input impedance can be assumed to be ∞ . This basically implies that...
no current will go in the inverting(-) and noninverting(+) side of the opampV₊ = V₋ , so whatever voltage is at the noninverting side will also be the voltage at the inverting sideSince no current is going into the + and - side of the opamp, then
i₁ = i₂
Since V₊ is connected to ground (0V) then V₋ must also be 0V.
V₊ = V₋ = 0
Use whatever method you want to solve for v_out and v_in then divide them. There's so many different ways of solving this circuit.
You didn't give me what the input voltage was so I can't give you the entire answer. I'll just give you the equations needed to plug in your values to get your answers.

e. Under the assumption of d), what is the maximum value of dBC such that the first car has passed C when the second car passes B?
Answer:
A. 36 minutes
B. 120 minutes
C.
i. 144 minutes
ii. 984 minutes
D. Car 1 is 1.67km ahead of Cat 2 when Car 2 passed the toll B.
E. 98.33km
Explanation
A.
Given
dAb = 10km
dBc = 10km
Propagation Speed = 100km/hr
Delay time = 1 minute
Numbers of cars = 8
Number of tolls = 3
Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay
Calculating Propagation Delay
Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed
Total distance = 10km + 10km = 20km
So, Propagation delay = 20km/100km/hr
Propagation delay = 0.2 hour
Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls * numbers of cars
Transitional delay = 1 * 3 * 8
Transitional delay = 24 minutes
Total End delay = 24 minutes + 0.2 hours
= 24 minutes + 0.2 * 60 minutes
= 24 minutes + 12 minutes
= 36 minutes
B.
Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay
Calculating Propagation Delay
Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed
Total distance = 10km + 10km = 20km
So, Propagation delay = 20km/100km/hr
Propagation delay = 0.2 hour
Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls ------ Cars traveling separately
Transitional delay = 1 * 3
Transitional delay = 3 minutes
Total End delay for one car = 3 minutes + 0.2 hours
= 3 minutes + 0.2 * 60 minutes
= 3 minutes + 12 minutes
= 15 minutes
Total End delay for 8 cars = 8 * 15 = 120 minutes
C.
Given
dAb = 100km
dBc = 100km
Propagation Speed = 100km/hr
Delay time = 1 minute
Numbers of cars = 8
Number of tolls = 3
i. Cars travelling together
Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay
Calculating Propagation Delay
Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed
Total distance = 100km + 100km = 200km
So, Propagation delay = 200km/100km/hr
Propagation delay = 2 hours
Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls * numbers of cars
Transitional delay = 1 * 3 * 8
Transitional delay = 24 minutes
Total End delay = 24 minutes + 2 hours
= 24 minutes + 2 * 60 minutes
= 24 minutes + 120 minutes
= 144 minutes
ii. Cars travelling separately
Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay
Calculating Propagation Delay
Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed
Total distance = 100km + 100km = 200km
So, Propagation delay = 200km/100km/hr
Propagation delay = 2 hours
Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls ------ Cars traveling separately
Transitional delay = 1 * 3
Transitional delay = 3 minutes
Total End delay for one car = 3 minutes + 2 hours
= 3 minutes + 2 * 60 minutes
= 3 minutes + 120 minutes
= 123 minutes
Total End delay for 8 cars = 8 * 123 = 984 minutes
D.
Distance = 100km
Time = 1 min/car
Car 1 is 1 minute ahead of car 2 --- at toll A and B
If car 1 leaves toll B after 10 minutes then cat 2 leaves after 11 minutes
Time delay = 11 - 10 = 1 minute
Distance = time * speed
= 1 minute * 100km/hr
= 1 hr/60 * 100 km/hr
= 100/60
= 1.67km
E.
Given
Distance = 100km
Distance behind = 1.67
Maximum value of dBc = 100km - 1.67km = 98.33km
The maximum distance that can be reached is 98.33km
Determine the following for a south facing surface at 30� slope in
Gainesville, FL (Latitude = 29.68�N, Longitude = 82.27�W) on September 21 at
noon solar time (Assuming a ground reflectivity of 0.2):
A. Zenith Angle
B. Angle of Incidence
C. Beam Radiation
D. Diffuse Radiation
E. Reflected Radiation
F. Total Radiation
G. Local Time (note Gainesville has daylight savings on Sep 21)
Answer:
z=60.32°, i=0.32°, Beam Radiation = 1097.2 W/m², Id = 94.2 W/m², Ir=14.1W/m², total radiation = 1205.4 W/m², Local time=1:21PM
Explanation:
A. Zenith Angle:
As we know that,
Zenith angle=z=90⁰-α=L(latitude)=29.68⁰
Another way to do it is to find α first,
At solar time hour angle is 0⁰. So, solar altitude becomes equal to latitude which could be written as
sinα=cosL
α=sin⁻¹(cosL)=sin⁻¹(cos29.68⁰)=60.32°
B. Angle of incidence:
angle of incidence= cosi=sin(α+β)=sin(60.32°+32°)=sin92.32°
i=cos⁻¹(sin92.32°)=0.32°
C. Beam Radiation:
First we need to calculate extra terrestrial radiations
Iext.=1353[1+0.034cos(360n/365)]
where n=264
=1345 W/m²
Now,
Beam Radiation=CIext⁻ⁿ
where n=0.1/sin60.32°
Beam Radiation = 1097.2 W/m²
D. Diffude Radiation:
difuse radiation = Id = 0.0921ₙcos²(β/2)
where β=30°
Id = 94.2 W/m²
E. Reflected Radiations:
Ir=pIn(sinα+0.092)sin²(β/2)
= (0.2)(1097.1)(sin60.32+0.092)sin²(30/2)
= 14.1W/m²
F. Total Radiation:
total radiation = beam radiation + diffuse radiation + reflected raddiation
= 1205.4 W/m²
G. Local Time:
LST= ST-ET-(lₓ-l(local))4min/₀
= 12:00-7.9min-(75°-82.27°)4min/₀
=12:21PM
Local time
LDT=LST+=12:21+1:00=1:21PM
A composite plane wall consists of a Li = 125 mm thick layer of insulation (ki = 0.05 W/m.K) and a Ls = 25 mm thick layer of siding (ks = 0.10 W/m.K). The inner temperature of the insulation is 20 C. The outer temperature of the siding is -10 C. Steady state conditions apply.
Determine the temperature at the interface between the two layers, in C, and the rate of heat transfer through the wall, in W per m2 of surface area.
Answer:
Interface temperature = -7.27C
Rate of heat transfer = 10.91W/m2
Explanation:
The steps and the application of fourier's law of heat conduction is as shown in the attached file.
For the given composite wall, the temperature at the interface between the two layers is 17.275 °C and the rate of heat transfer through the wall is -0.0109 W/m².
Explanation:To determine the temperature at the interface between the two layers, we can use the formula for 1-D steady-state heat conduction:
q = (T2 - T1) / ((L1 / k1) + (L2 / k2))
where q is the heat transfer rate per unit area, T1 and T2 are the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces, L1 and L2 are the thicknesses of the insulation and siding layers, and k1 and k2 are the thermal conductivities of the insulation and siding layers, respectively.
Plugging in the given values:
q = (-10 - 20) / ((125 / 0.05) + (25 / 0.10)) = -30 / (2500 + 250) = -30 / 2750 = -0.0109 W/m².
The negative sign indicates heat transfer from the siding to the insulation.
To find the temperature at the interface, we can use the formula:
T_interface = T1 + (q * (L1 / k1))
Plugging in the values:
T_interface = 20 + (-0.0109 * (125 / 0.05)) = 20 - 2.725 = 17.275 °C.
Therefore, the temperature at the interface between the two layers is 17.275 °C and the rate of heat transfer through the wall is -0.0109 W/m².
When a thin glass tube is put into water, the water rises 1.4 cm. When the same tube is put into hexane, the hexane rises only 0.4 cm. Complete the sentences to best explain the difference.
Answer:
Due to differences in the nature of the adhesive force and cohesive forces in the molecules of the individual substances and the glass tube.
Explanation:
To understand why this is so, a deep understanding of adhesive and cohesive force is required.
First, what is adhesive force?
Note: Adhesive and cohesive forces are best discussed under macroscopic level.
Adhesive force is the Intermolecular forces that exist between atoms of different molecules e g the forces explain when unlike charges stick together.
Cohesive force on the other hand is the Intermolecular force that exist between atoms of the same molecules e.g the force between hydrogen bonding.
Hence to explain the case scenario above, the adhesive force between the water molecules and the glass molecules is higher than the cohesive force between the water molecules. Hence the high rise.
For the case of the Hexane, the cohesive forces between the molecules hexane is far greater then the adhesive force between the glass molecules and the hexane molecules.
