What is the non-linearity error, as a percentage of full range, produced when a 1K Ω potentiometer has a load of 10KΩ & is a

t one-third of its maximum displacement?

Answer:

2.28%

Explanation:

Being at one third of its maximum range a potentiometer should output V0/3.

However if this 1kΩ potentiometer has a 10kΩ load:

(1) I1 = I2 + I3

(2) V0 = I1 * 2/3*Rp + I3 * 1/*Rp

(3) Vp = I2 * Rl

(4) Vp = I3 * 1/3 * Rp

Where

I1: current entering the potentiometer

I2: current going to the load

I3: current going to the other leg of the potentiometer

V0: supply voltage

Vp: output voltage of the potentiometer

Rp: total resistance of the potentiometer

Rl: load resistance

First we determine the intensity of I3 in function of supply power

I3 = 3 * Vp / Rp  = 3 * Vp / 1000 = 0.003*Vp

Then the load current

I2 = Vp / Rl  = Vp / 10000 = 0.0001*Vp

With these we determine I1

I1 = 0.003*Vp + 0.0001*Vp = 0.0031*Vp

Then

V0 = 0.0031 * Vp * 2/3*Rp + 0.003*Vp * 1/3*Rp

V0 = 0.00207 * Vp * Rp + 0.001 * Vp * Rp

V0 = 0.00307 * Vp * 1000

V0 = 3.07 * Vp

Vp = V0 / 3.07

Vp = 0.3257 * V0

Now the percentage error is:

(100 * (0.3333 - 0.3257)) / 0.3333 = 2.28 %

Write a loop that sets each array element to the sum of itself and the next element, except for the last element which stays the
kotykmax [81]

Hi, you haven't provided the programing language in which you need the code, I'll explain how to do it using Python, and you can follow the same logic to make a program in the programing language that you need.

Answer:

#Python

array = [5,2,3,4,5,0,7,1,9,8,2,7]

for i in range(len(array)-1):

   array[i] = array[i]+array[i+1]

print(array)

Explanation:

First, we create an array, then a for loop that iterates from the beginning of the array to the penultimate value, this avoids changes in the last value of the array, we modify the array elements, except the last one, by adding the current element and the next element, finally, we print the result.

A journeyman electrician with 16 years experience on-the-job was removing metal fish tape from a hole at the base of a metal lig
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: He should have ensured the following before beginning work;

1) All circuits must be de-energized before beginning work

2) All controls must be deactivated during work. LOTO(Log out tag out) must be practiced irrespective of the experience of the electrian or worker.

3) Technicians and Electrical workers must be instructed to know the unsafe conditions associated with their work.

Explanation:

We cannot assume that because he is experienced he cannot be prone to all this wrong practices. Humans tend to think that with experience people become less prone to errors and study has shown that this is not true. Safety must be a priority.

A heat engine does 210 J of work per cycle while exhausting 440 J of waste heat. Part A What is the engine's thermal efficiency?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The engine's thermal efficiency is 0.32

Explanation:

Thermal efficiency = work done ÷ quantity of heat supplied

Work done = 210 J

Quantity of heat supplied = work done + waste heat = 210 + 440 = 650 J

Thermal efficiency = 210 ÷ 650 = 0.32

A positively charged electric has a charge of 2 Coulombs. If 12.5x10^18 free electrons are added to it, what will be the net cha
vitfil [10]

The net charge on the said dielectric is 0

1C = 6.25 * 10¹⁸ electrons; hence:

-12.5x10¹⁸ free electrons = (-12.5x10¹⁸ free electrons * (1C/ 6.25 * 10¹⁸ electrons))

-12.5x10¹⁸ free electrons = -2 C

A positively charged electric has a charge of 2 Coulombs, hence:

Q₁ = 2C

12.5x10¹⁸ free electrons are added to it, hence:

Q₂ = -2C

Net\ charge(Q_{net})=Q_1+Q_2=2C+(-2C)=0

Hence the net charge on the said dielectric is 0
