4.72 A full-wave bridge-rectifier circuit with a 1-k load operates from a 120-V (rms) 60-Hz household supply through a 12-to-1 s

tep-down transformer having a single secondary winding. It uses four diodes, each of which can be modeled to have a 0.7-V drop for any current. What is the peak value of the rectified voltage across the load? For what fraction of a cycle does each diode conduct? What is the average voltage across the load? What is the average current through the load? D 4.73 I

Answer:

a) 12.74 V

b) Two pairs of diode will work only half of the cycle

c) 8.11 V

d) 8.11 mA

Explanation:

The voltage after the transformer is relationated with the transformer relationshinp:

V_o=Vrms*\frac{1}{12}\\V_o=10Vrms

the peak voltage before the bridge rectifier is given by:

V_{op}=Vo*\sqrt{2}\\V_{op}=14.14V

The diodes drop 0.7v, when we use a bridge rectifier only two diodes are working when the signal is positive and the other two when it's negative, so the peak voltage of the load is:

V_l=V_{op}-2(0.7)\\V_l=12.74V

As we said before only two diodes will work at a time, because the signal is half positive and half negative,so two of them will work only half of the cycle.

The averague voltage on a full wave rectifier is given by:

V_{avg}=2*\frac{V_l}{\pi}\\V_{avg}=8.11V

Using Ohm's law:

I_{avg}=\frac{V_{avg}}{R}\\\\I_{avg}=8.11mA

In complete sentences describe the energy flow between the Sun, the Earth, and space
agasfer [191]
Answer: The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.
Explanation:
The amount of incoming energy from the Sun decides the weather and climate of earth. If the energy that is incoming and outgoing on the earth, then climate is in equilibrium. The balance is depending on the scattering, absorption, reflection and transformation of energy.
The energy from sun passes through space and reaches the earth’s surface. On reaching surface, the solar energy warms the atmosphere releasing heat energy which gets transferred throughout the planets system by radiation, conduction and convection. Conduction happens in the atmosphere within first several millimeters close to the surface. This heated air expands as it is dense and rises causing transfer of heat to atmosphere through convection process. It results in formation of clouds.
The radiant energy from sun is transmitted via space in form of invisible waves. But much of the suns radiant energy, is transmitted back to atmosphere. The objects on earth like land, plants, animals absorb radiant energy as heat of which one third gets re-radiated back to atmosphere that is absorbed by carbon dioxide and water vapor. The atmosphere radiates heat energy back to earth increasing the earth temperature. This trapping of radiation is greenhouse effect.
The thermal energy obtained by convection currents are responsible for wind, cloud formation, and weather formation. The hydrosphere that comprises of 70% of earth’s surface absorbs solar energy.
On the basis of the above explanation is:
The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

  θ = 28.9

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the law of refraction

          n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where we use index 1 for air and index 2 for water where the fish is

        sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

in this case the air repair index is 1 and the water 1.33

we substitute

        sin θ₂ = 1 / 1.33 sin t 40

        sin θ = 0.4833

         

        θ = sin⁻¹ 0.4833

        θ = 28.9
