The Heaviside function H is defined by H(t)={0 if t<0, 1 if t≥0 It is used in the study of electric circuits to represent the

sudden surge of electric current, or voltage, when a switch is instantaneously turned on. Sketch the graph of the voltage V(t) in a circuit if the switch is turned on at time t=5 seconds and 240 volts are applied instantaneously to the circuit. Write a formula for V(t) in terms of H(t). (Note that starting at t=5 corresponds to a translation.)

Answer:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

Explanation:

The heaviside function is defined as:

H(t) =1 \quad t\geq 0\\H(t) =0 \quad t

so we see that the Heaviside function "switches on" whent=0, and remains switched on when t>0

If we want our heaviside function to switch on when t=5, we need the argument to the heaviside function to be 0 when t=5

Thus we define a function f:

f(t) = H(t-5)

The -5 term inside the heaviside function makes sure to displace the function 5 units to the right.

Now we just need to add a scale up factor of 240 V, because thats the voltage applied after the heaviside function switches on. (H(t-5) =1 when t\geq 5, so it becomes just a 1, which we can safely ignore.)

Therefore our final result is:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

I have made a sketch for you, and added it as attachment.

A crate slides down a ramp that makes a 20∘ angle with the ground. to keep the crate from sliding too fast, paige pushes back on
shutvik [7]
The solution is:
Paige's force is (somewhat) against the direction of motion: Work = F * d Where F is the force; andd is the distance
Our f is 64 N and our distance is 20 and -3.6Plugging that in our equation will give us:
= 64N * cos20º * -3.6m = -217 J

What is a control,constant, independent variable, and a dependent variable in a science experiment?
vagabundo [1.1K]
A control is something you don't touch/change in a exprement, a constant is the same as the control, the independent is the one the you do vhange, the dependet is the one that you observe/ use your 5 sences with.

The volumes of the block is 10,500 mL and density is 8.52 g/mL. Find the block's mass Don't forget units and a space
Schach [20]

Answer:

<h2>89,460 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

From the question we have

mass = 8.52 × 10,500

We have the final answer as

<h3>89,460 g</h3>

Hope this helps you

If the radio waves transmitted by a radio station have a frequency of 76.5 mhz, what is the wavelength of the waves, in meters?
____ [38]
Given: Velocity of light    c = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

Frequency f = 7.65 x 10⁷/s

Required: Wavelength λ = ?

Formula:  λ = c/f

λ = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s/7.65 x 10⁷/s

λ = 3.92 m

A car with a mass of 2.0×10^3 kg is traveling at 15m/s .what is the momentum of the car ?
Maurinko [17]
Hello,

<span>A car with a mass of 2.0×10^3 kg is traveling at 15m/s. We need to find the momentum of the car. To do so, follow this formula:

p=mv

Where,

p = momentum 
m = mass
v = </span>velocity

The cars mass is 2.0E3 and its velocity is 15m/s. Therefore:

p=2.0  x 10^3 *15 or 2000(15)

p=30000

Thus, the cars momentum is 30000 kg m/s
