Answer:

The pipe is open ended and the length of pipe is 3.4 m.

Explanation:

For identification of the type of pipe checking the successive frequencies in both the open pipe and closed pipe as below

Equation for nth frequency for open end pipe is given as

f_n=\frac{nv}{2L}

For (n+1)th value the frequency is

f_{n+1}=\frac{(n+1)v}{2L}

Taking a ratio of both equation and solving for n such that the value of n is a whole number

\frac{f_{n+1}}{f_n}=\frac{\frac{(n+1)v}{2L}}{\frac{nv}{2L}}\\\frac{350}{300}=\frac{(n+1)}{n}\\350n =300n+300\\50n =300\\n =6\\

So n is a whole number this means that the pipe is open ended.

For confirmation the  nth frequency for a closed ended pipe is given as

f_n=\frac{(2n+1)v}{4L}

For (n+1)th value the frequency is

f_{n+1}=\frac{(2n+3)v}{4L}

Taking a ratio of both equation and solving for n such that the value of n is a whole number

\frac{f_{n+1}}{f_n}=\frac{\frac{(2n+3)v}{2L}}{\frac{(2n+1)v}{2L}}\\\frac{350}{300}=\frac{(2n+3)}{(2n+1)}\\700n+350 =600n+900\\100n =550\\n =5.5\\

As n is not a whole number so this is further confirmed that the pipe is open ended.

Now from the equation of, with n=6, v=340 m/s and f=300 Hz

f_n=\frac{nv}{2L}\\300=\frac{6 \times 340}{2L}\\L=\frac{2040}{600}\\L=3.4 m

The value of length is 3.4m.

Based on the pattern, what are the next two terms of the sequence? 9,94,916,964,9256,... A. 91024,94096 B. 9260,91028 C. 9260,92
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The answer is "Option A".

Explanation:

Series:

9, 94, 916, 964, 9256, ........

Solving the above series:

\to  9\\ \to  9(4) =94\\\to 9 (4^2) = 9(16) =916\\\to 9 (4^3) = 9(64) =964\\\to 9 (4^4) = 9(256) =9256\\\to 9 (4^5) = 9(1024) =91024\\\to 9 (4^6) = 9(4096) =94096\\

So, the series is:  9, 94, 916, 964, 9256, 91024, 94096, .................

Design a half-wave recti er which provides a peak voltage of 15 V, and anaverage voltage of 3.8 V when driven by a 120 V (rms) a
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

You need a 120V to 24V commercial transformer  (transformer 1:5), a 100 ohms resistance, a 1.5 K ohms resistance and a diode with a minimum forward current of 20 mA (could be 1N4148)

Step by step design:

  1. Because you have a 120V AC voltage supply you need an efficient way to reduce that voltage as much as possible before passing to the rectifier, for that I recommend a standard 120V to 24V transformer.  120 Vrms = 85 V and 24 Vrms = 17V = Vin
  2. Because 17V is not 15V you still need a voltage divider to step down that voltage, for that we use R1 = 100Ω and R2 = 1.3KΩ. You need to remember that more than 1 V is going to be in the diode, so for our calculation we need to consider it. Vf = (V*R2)/(R1+R2), V = Vin - 1 = 17-1 = 16V and Vf = 15, Choosing a fix resistance R1 = 100Ω and solving the equation we find R2 = 1.5KΩ
  3. Finally to select the diode you need to calculate two times the maximum current and that would be the forward current (If) of your diode. Imax = Vf/R2 = 10mA and If = 2*Imax = 20mA

Our circuit meet the average voltage (Va) specification:

Va = (15)/(pi) = 4.77V considering the diode voltage or 3.77V without considering it

What does the air change rate represent?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

  • The removal or addition of air volume to the space is the air change rate
  • The rate of air change is positive when air volume is added to the space and the rate of air change is negative when air volume is removed from the space.
  • The standard built home has a 0.5 to 1 of air change rate.
  • The rate of air change is dependent on the building (how the building form)
