Answer: a) W(earth) = 935.62 lbs

b) Mass of rocks in slugs = 29.06 slugs

Explanation:

a) From Newton's law, W = mg. Whether on the moon or on earth. Although, the mass of the rocks everywhere is the same, that is, mass of rocks on the moon = mass of rocks on earth.

W(moon) = mg(moon)

W(moon) = 154 lbs

g(moon) = 5.30 ft/s2

m = W(moon)/g(moon) = 154/5.3 = 29.06 lb.s2/ft

W(earth) = m g(earth)

g(earth) = 32.2 ft/s2

W(earth) = 29.06 × 32.2 = 935.62 lbs.

b) A slug = 1 lb.s2/ft, therefore the mass of the rocks in slugs is 29.06 slugs.

Do the coil resistances have any effect on the plots?
PolarNik [594]
Because of the skin depth effect, the current at high frequency tends to flow at very low depth from radius. Then at high frequency the effective cross section of the wire is narrower than at DC.

Fro example skin depth at 100 kHz is 0.206 mm (0.008”), a wire more thicker than AWG26 could be a waste of copper, better use a bunch of thin wire (Litz wire) to rise the Q factor.

#<em>Finds the names that appear in both lists, just returns those</em>

neutral_names = male_names.intersection(female_names)

#<em>Returns names that are NOT in both lists</em>

specific_names = male_names.symmetric_difference(female_names)
