R1 + R4 = 1430 + 1350 = 2780 = R14 series combination of R1 & R4

R2 + R5 = 1350 + 1150 = 2500 = R25

The circuit has been reduced to 3 resistors in parallel

R314 = 2780 * 1100 / (2780 + 1100) = 788 this is the resistance of the parallel combination of R14 and R3

R31425 = 2500 * 788 / (2500 + 788) = 599 which is the equivalent of the circuit - you can also use the formula for 3 resistors in parallel but this seems simpler

The y-component of the force F which a person exerts on the handle of the box wrench is known to be 86 lb. Determine the x-compo

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

x-component of force is 38.18 lb where as magnitude of Force is 93.16

Explanation:

Fy of the force F exerted on the handle of the box wrench = 86 lb

Considering the triangle in Fig 1

magnitude of perpendicular = P = 12

magnitude of base = B = 5

using Pythagoras theorem

$H= \sqrt{P^{2} + B^{2}}$

$H= \sqrt{12^{2} + 5^{2}}$

$H=13\\\implies cos \theta = \frac{5}{13} \\\implies sin \theta = \frac{12}{13}\\$

y-component of force is given given as:

$86 = Fsin\theta\\F = 86 (\frac{13}{12})\\F = 93.16 lb\\F_{x} =F cos \theta\\F_{x} = 93.16 (\frac{5}{13})\\F_{x} =38.18 lb.$

I wish to use a step up transformer to turn an initial RMS AC voltage of 100 V into a final RMS AC voltage of 200 V. What is the

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

1:2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial RMS AC voltage is 100 V and final RMS AC voltage is 200 V.

We need to find the ratio of the number of turns in the primary to the secondary for step up transformer.

For a transformer, $\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}$

So,

$\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{100}{200}\\\\\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

So, the ratio of the number of turns in the primary to the secondary is 1:2.

(d) Suppose you use a spring to launch a payload horizontally from the asteroid so that the payload ends up far from the asteroi

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

ks= 133.2 N/m

Explanation:

Assuming that we can neglect the gravitational potential energy of the mass, and that no other forces acting on the payload, total mechanical energy must be conserved.
This energy, at any time, is part elastic potential energy (stored in the spring) and part kinetic energy.
When the spring is initially compressed, the payload is at rest, so all energy is elastic potential.
Once the spring has returned to its natural state, all this elastic potential energy must have been turned into kinetic energy.
If the payload is launched horizontally, and no gravity is present,this means that its final speed will be horizontal only also, according to Newton's First Law.
So, we can write the following equation:

$\Delta U + \Delta K = 0 (1)$

where ΔU = -1/2*k*(Δx)² (2)
and ΔK = 1/2*m*v² (3)
Replacing in (2) and (3) by the givens, and simplifying, we can find the stiffness ks as follows:

$k_{s} =\frac{m*v^{2}}{\Delta x^{2}} = \frac{29 kg*(3m/s)^{2}}{(1.4m)^{2}} = 133.2 N/M (4)$
