A thermistor is a temperature‐sensing element composed of a semiconductor material, which exhibits a large change in resistance

proportional to a small change in temperature. A particular thermistor has a resistance of 5 kΩ at 25°C. Its resistance is 340 Ω at 100°C. Assuming a straight‐line relationship between these two values, at what temperature will the thermistor's resistance equal 1 kΩ?

The temperature at which the resistance is 1 k\Omega is 89.4^{\circ}C

Explanation:

For the thermistor in this problem, the relationship between temperature and resistance is linear.

We have:

R_1 = 5000 \Omega when the temperature is T=25^{\circ}C

R_2=340 \Omega when the temperature is T=100^{\circ}C

Assuming a straight-line relationship, we can find the slope of the line:

m=\frac{R_2-R_1}{T_2-T_1}=\frac{340-5000}{100-25}=-62.1 \Omega/^{\circ}C

Now that we know the slope, we can extrapolate the temperature when the resistance is

R_3 = 1 k\Omega = 1000 \Omega

In fact, we can write:

m=\frac{R_3-R_2}{T_3-T_2}

And solving for T_3,

m(T_3-T_2)=R_3-R_2\\T_3 = T_2 +\frac{R_3-R_2}{m}=100 + \frac{1000-340}{-62.1}=89.4^{\circ}C

goblinko [34]

Answer:

A retaining of a wall is a protective structure, first and foremost.

Explanation:

Its main aim is to provide functional support for keeping soil in place. It acts as a wall to keep the soil on one side and the rest of the landscape area on the other, providing a platform for a garden to be created.

A soil has the following Green-Ampt parameters Effective porosity 0.400 Initial volumetric moisture content-15% Hydraulic Conduc
Rudik [331]

Answer:

The graphs are attached below

Explanation:

Ans) We know,

F(t) = K(t - to) + zΔ∅ ln[(1 + F(t)/zΔ∅]

where K = hydraulic conductivity =0.1 cm/hr

z = capillary suction =20cm

 Δ∅ = ∅ (1 - Se)

 ∅ = effective porosity , Se = initial moisture content

 Δ∅ = 0.40(1 - 0.15)

Δ∅ = 0.34

Now, F(t) = 0.1(t - to) + 20(0.34) ln[ 1 + F(t)/6.8]

F(t) = 0.1(t - to) + 6.8 ln [1+ 0.147 F(t)]

Also, infiltration rate (f),

f = K [(zΔ∅ + F)/F]

f = 0.40 [6.8 + F]/F

Condition of ponding,

Ponding time tp = K zΔ∅ i(i-k)

where, i = rainfall rate (1cm/hr)

tp = 0.40(6.8) / 0.60

tp= 4.53 hours

Now, cumulative infiltraton at ponding Fp = i tp

Fp = 1 x 4.53 or 4.53 cm

For infiltration at time less then ponding time , infiltration rate = rainfall rate

For t = 0.25 hr , f = 1cm/hr ; F = 0.25 x 1 = 0.25 cm

For t = 0.50 hr , f = 1cm/hr ; F = 0.50 cm

For t = 0.75 hr , f = 1cm/hr ; F = 0.75 cm

For t = 1 hr , f = 1cm/hr ; F = 1cm/hr

For t > tp ,

Equivalent time origin(to),

to = tp - 1/K [ Fp - z Δ∅ ln (1+ Fp/zΔ∅)

to = 4.53 - 1/0.40[ 4.53 - 6.8 ln(1 + 0.66)

to = 4.53 - 2.5 ( 4.53 - 3.44)

to = 1.82 hr

Hence,

F = 0.10( t - 1.82) + 6.8 ln[ 1+ 0.147F(t)]

Solving above equation for t by assuming F, and further solving equation for infiltration rate

Ans (a) Following is required curve :

O.S 1-5 2 time Chr)ホー Lt 2 time Chr)

Ans (c) Following is required table :

Ans (d) For time step t = 0.25 hrs

At t < tp ; i = f = 1 cm/hr

F = i x t

F = 1 x 0.25

F = 0.25 cm

A digital automatic level is used to profile a road centerline. The backsight reading is 3.57 ft on BM #1, which has an elevatio
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

209.55 ft

Explanation:

Given Data:

Benchmark:

Reduced Level or Elevation = 210.50

Height of Instrument = Reduced Level + Back sight Reading

Height of Instrument = 210.50 + 3.57 = 214.07 ft

Turning Point:

Back sight Reading = 2.91 ft

Fore Sight Reading = 4.52

Reduced Level or Elevation of Turning Point = Height of Instrument – fore sight Reading

Reduced Level or Elevation of Turning Point = 214.07 – 4.52 = 209.55 ft

Height of Instrument at Turning Point = Reduced Level + Back sight Reading

Height of Instrument at Turning Point = 209.55 + 2.91 = 212.46 ft

The phasor technique makes it pretty easy to combine several sinusoidal functions into a single sinusoidal expression without us
devlian [24]

Answer:

The phasor technique can't be applied directly in the following cases:

a) 45 sin(2500t – 50°) + 20 cos(1500t +20°)

b) 100 cos(500t +40°) + 50 sin(500t – 120°) – 120 cos(500t + 60°)

c)  -100 sin(10,000t +90°) + 40 sin(10, 100t – 80°) + 80 cos(10,000t)

d)  75 cos(8t+40°) + 75 sin(8t+10°) – 75 cos(8t + 160°)

Explanation:

For a) and c), it is not possible to use the phasor technique, due this technique is only possible when the sinusoidal signals to be combined are all of the same frequency.

This is due to the vector representing a signal is showed as a fixed vector in the graph( which magnitude is equal to the amplitude of the sinusoid and his angle is the phase angle with respect to cos (ωt)), which is rotating at an angular speed equal to the angular frequency of the sinusoidal signal that represents, like a radius that shows a point rotating in a circular uniform movement.

This rotating vector represents a sinusoidal signal, in the form of a cosine (as the real part of the complex function e^{j(wt+\alpha)}), so it is not possible to combine with functions expressed as a sine, even though both  have  the same frequency.

If we look at the graphs of cos (ωt) and sin (ωt) we can say that the sin lags the cos in 90º, so we can say the following:

sin (ωt) = cos (ωt-90º)

This means that in order to be able to represent a sine function  as a cosine, we need to rotate it 90º in the plane clockwise.

This is the reason why before doing this transformation, it is not possible to use the phasor technique for b) and d).
