Answer:

Both Technician A and technician B are correct.

Explanation: A transistor must have a P-N junction as that is where the positive and negative charges are connected.

A transistor also can be described as a semiconductor which acts as a switch and can be used to amplify currents. Transistors are very key and vital to electronic devices especially the mobile phones in recent times, it helps to ensure that electronic systems perform optimally.

The charges in the P-N junction is controlled by the availability of Positive and negative electrons.

4.2 A vapor compression refrigeration machine uses 30kW of electric power to produce 50 tons of cooling. What is
stellarik [79]

Answer:

5.833

Explanation:

Coefficient of Perfomance (COP) is the ratio of refrigeration effect to power input.

COP=\frac {RE}{P} where RE is refrigeration effect and P is power input

Here, the power input is given as 30 kW

We also know that 1 ton cooling is equivalent to 3.5 kW hence for 50 tons, RE=50*3.5=175 kW

Now the COP=\frac {175}{30}=5.833

Brut [27]

Answer:

μ=0.329, 2.671 turns.

Explanation:

(a)   ln(T2/T1)=μβ         β=angle of contact in radians

take T2 as greater tension value and T1 smaller, otherwise the friction would be opposite.

T2=5000 lb and T1=80 lb

we have two full turns which makes total angle of contact=4π  radians

μ=ln(T2/T1)/β=(ln(5000/80))/4π  

μ=0.329

(b) using the same relation as above we will now compute the angle of contact.

take greater tension as T2 and smaller as T1.

T2=20000 lb     T1=80 lb   μ=0.329

β=ln(20000/80)/0.329=16.7825 radians

divide the angle of contact by 2π to obtain number of turns.

16.7825/2π =2.671 turns

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%

b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)

Please kindly see explaination and attachment.

Explanation:

a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%

b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)

The Isentropic efficiency of a turbine is a comparison of the actual power output with the Isentropic case.

Entropy can be defined as the thermodynamic quantity representing the unavailability of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system.

Please refer to attachment for step by step solution of the question.

A battery is connected to a resistor. Increasing the resistance of the resistor will __________. A battery is connected to a res
belka [17]

Answer: the increase in the external resistor will affect and decrease the current in the circuit.

Explanation: A battery has it own internal resistance, r, and given an external resistor of resistance, R, the equation of typical of Ohm's law giving the flow of current is

E = IR + Ir = I(R + r)........(1)

Where IR is the potential difference flowing in the external circuit and Or is the lost voltage due to internal resistance of battery. From (1)

I = E/(R + r)

As R increases, and E, r remain constant, the value (R + r) increases, hence the value of current, I, in the external circuit decreases.
