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.

Question is down below

The vertical components of velocity is 10.35 m/s and the horizontal component of velocity is 38.6 m/s

<h3>What are the components of velocity?</h3>

We know that velocity is a vector quantity, a vector often can be resolved into its components. The vertical components is V sinθ while the horizontal component is vcosθ.

Hence;

Vertical component = 40 m/s sin 15 degrees = 10.35 m/s

Horizontal component = 40 cos 15 degrees = 38.6 m/s
