Answer:
(i) 12 V in series with 18 Ω.
(ii) 0.4 A; 1.92 W
(iii) 1,152 J
(iv) 18Ω — maximum power transfer theorem
Explanation:
<h3>(i)</h3>
As seen by the load, the equivalent source impedance is ...
10 Ω + (24 Ω || 12 Ω) = (10 +(24·12)/(24+12)) Ω = 18 Ω
The open-circuit voltage seen by the load is ...
(36 V)(12/(24 +12)) = 12 V
The Thevenin's equivalent source seen by the load is 12 V in series with 18 Ω.
__
<h3>(ii)</h3>
The load current is ...
(12 V)/(18 Ω +12 Ω) = 12/30 A = 0.4 A . . . . load current
The load power is ...
P = I^2·R = (0.4 A)^2·(12 Ω) = 1.92 W . . . . load power
__
<h3>(iii)</h3>
10 minutes is 600 seconds. At the rate of 1.92 J/s, the electrical energy delivered is ...
(600 s)(1.92 J/s) = 1,152 J
__
<h3>(iv)</h3>
The load resistance that will draw maximum power is equal to the source resistance: 18 Ω. This is the conclusion of the Maximum Power Transfer theorem.
The power transferred to 18 Ω is ...
((12 V)/(18 Ω +18 Ω))^2·(18 Ω) = 144/72 W = 2 W
Answer:
Airplanes' wings are curved on top and flatter on the bottom. That shape makes air flow over the top faster than under the bottom. As a result, less air pressure is on top of the wing. This lower pressure makes the wing, and the airplane it's attached to, move up.
Explanation:
Answer:
(a) Surface energy is greater than grain boundary energy due to the fact that the bonds of the atoms on the surface are lower than those of the atoms at the grain boundary. The energy is also directly proportional to the number of bonds created.
(b) The energy of a high-angle grain boundary is higher than that of a small-angle grain boundary because the high-angle grain boundary has a higher misalignment and smaller number of bonds than a small-angle grain boundary.
