The lab technician you recently hired tells you the following: Boss, an undisturbed sample of saturated clayey soil was brought

to me from the Mission Valley site. I measured the mass of the sample to be 600 grams. I then measured the mass of the sample after placing it in the oven for 24 hrs. I found this mass to be 200 grams. Can you help me determine the water content?" Determine the water content.

Answer:

The water of the saturated clayed soil is 66.67 %.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of saturated clayed soil, M_s = 600 g

mass of dry soil sample, M_d = 200 g

mass of water content, M_w = M_s - M_d = 600 g - 200 g = 400 g

The water content is determined as;

M_w(\%)  = \frac{M_s - M_d}{M_s} *100\%\\\\M_w(\%)  = \frac{600-200}{600} *100 \% \\\\M_w(\%)  = 66.67 \%

Therefore, the water of the saturated clayed soil is 66.67 %.

How many watts are consumed in a circuit having a power factor of 0. 2 if the input is 100 vac at 4 amperes?.
Anna71 [15]

The watts that are consumed is 80 watts.

<h3>What power factor?</h3>

The term power factor has to do with the measure of the efficiency of the use of energy. Recall that power is defined as the rate of doing work. The magnitude of the power factor shows the extent to which the power is used.

Now, to obtain the watts are consumed in a circuit having a power factor of 0. 2 if the input is 100 vac at 4 amperes we have;  V × I × PF = 100V × 4A × 0.2 = 80 watts.

A sensor produces a signal with amplitude 15 mV. A voltage amplifier must amplify the signal such that the amplitude of the outp
Nady [450]

Answer:

42.50 dB

Explanation:

Determine the minimum voltage gain

amplitude of input signal ( Vi ) = 15 mV

amplitude of output signal ( Vo) = 2 V

Vo = 2 v

therefore ; minimum gain = Vo / Vi =  2 / ( 15 * 10^-3 )

                                                         = 133.33

Minimum gain in DB = 20 log ( 133.33 )

                                  = 42.498 ≈ 42.50 dB
