A microwave transmitter has an output of 0.1W at 2 GHz. Assume that this transmitter is used in a microwave communication system

where the transmitting and receiving antennas are parabola, each 1.2m in diameter.
a. What is the gain of each antenna?

b. If the receiving antenna is located 24 km from the transmitting antenna over a free space path, find the available signal power out of the receiving antenna.

Answer:

gain = 353.3616

P_r = 1.742*10^-8 W

Explanation:

Given:

- The output Power P_o = 0.1 W

- The diameter of the antennas d = 1.2 m

- The frequency of signal f = 2 GHz

Find:

a. What is the gain of each antenna?

b. If the receiving antenna is located 24 km from the transmitting antenna over a free space path, find the available signal power out of the receiving antenna.

Solution:

- The gain of the parabolic antenna is given by the following formula:

                            gain = 0.56 * 4 * pi^2 * r^2 / λ^2

Where, λ : The wavelength of signal

            r: Radius of antenna = d / 2 = 1.2 / 2 = 0.6 m

- The wavelength can be determined by:

                            λ = c / f

                            λ = (3*10^8) / (2*10^9)

                            λ = 0.15 m

- Plug in the values in the gain formula:

                            gain = 0.56 * 4 * pi^2 * 0.6^2 / 0.15^2

                            gain = 353.3616

- The available signal power out from the receiving antenna is:

                            P_r = (gain^2 * λ^2 * W) / (16*pi^2 * 10^2 * 10^6)

                            P_r = (353.36^2 * 0.15^2 * 0.1) / (16*pi^2 * 10^2 * 10^6)

                            P_r = 1.742*10^-8 W

Answer:

A. Manufacturers rating capacity ↔  3. Must be marked on all jacks; must not be exceeded

B. Block Used to lift and hold heavy loads, allow them for travel ↔ 1. Place the jack head against this

C. Level surface ↔ 4. Place this under the base of the jack when it's necessary to provide a firm foundation

D. Jack ↔ 2. Used to lift and hold heavy loads, allow them for travel

Explanation:

The manufacturers rating for a jack is labelled on all jacks and should be referenced to compare with the load to be lifted so as to ensure a safe and successful lifting.

In order to lift a load, such as a car, it is required to place the jack on a level surface to provide balance during the lifting task

The head of the jack is placed against the block for lifting heavy objects for proper performance

What is the composition, in atom percent, of an alloy that consists of 4.5 wt% Pb and 95.5 wt% Sn?
jeka57 [31]

Answer: Option A is correct -- 2.6 at% Pb and 97.4 at% Sn.

Explanation:

Option A is the only correct option -- 2.6 at% Pb and 97.4 at% Sn. While option B, which is 7.6 at% Pb and 92.4 at% Sn. and option C, which is 97.4 at% Pb and 2.6 at% Sn. and option D, which is 92.4 at% Pb and 7.6 at% Sn. are wrong.

weight of 1000 pounds is suspended from two cables. The allowable stress in the cables is 1500 psi. Find the minimum diameter fo
kari74 [83]

Answer:

The minimum diameter for each cable should be 0.65 inches.

Explanation:

Since, the load is supported by two ropes and the allowable stress in each rope is 1500 psi. Therefore,

(1/2)(Weight/Cross Sectional Area) = Allowable Stress

Here,

Weight = 1000 lb

Cross-sectional area = πr²

where, r = minimum radius for each cable

(1/2)(1000 lb/πr²) = 1500 psi

500 lb/1500π psi = r²

r = √1.061 in²

r = 0.325 in

Now, for diameter:

Diameter = 2(radius) = 2r

Diameter = 2(0.325 in)

<u>Diameter = 0.65 in</u>
