Consider a thin rod of mass 3.2 kg, length 1.2 m and uniform density. The rod is pivoted at one end on a frictionless horizontal

pin. The rod is initially held in horizontal position but eventually allowed to swing down. 1.2 m 3.2 kg O 38◦ What is its angular acceleration at the instant it makes an angle 38 ◦ with the horizontal?

Answer:

the angular acceleration is 9.7 rad/s^{2}

Explanation:

given information:

mass of thin rod, m = 3.2 kg

the length of the rod, L = 1.2

angle, θ = 38

to find the acceleration of the rod, we can use the torque's formula as below,

τ = Iα

where

τ = torque

I = inertia

σ = acceleration

moment inertia of this rod, I

I = \frac{1}{3} mL^{2}

τ = F d, d = \frac{L}{2}cosθ

τ = m g \frac{L}{2}cosθ

now we can substitute the both equation,

τ = Iα

α = τ/I

  = (m g \frac{L}{2}cosθ)/(\frac{1}{3} mL^{2})

  = 3gcosθ/2L

  = 3 (9.8)cos 38°/(2 x 1.2)

  = 9.7 rad/s^{2}

Who invented the transistor
erma4kov [3.2K]

A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical power. It is composed of semiconductor material usually with at least three terminals for connection to an external circuit. A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor's terminals changes the current through another pair of terminals. Because the controlled (output) power can be higher than the controlling (input) power, a transistor can amplify a signal. Today, some transistors are packaged individually, but many more are found embedded in integrated circuits.

Some of the earliest work on semiconductor amplifiers emerged from Eastern Europe. In 1922-23 Russian engineer Oleg Losev of the Nizhegorod Radio Laboratory, Leningrad, found that a special mode of operation in a point-contact zincite (ZnO) crystal diode supported signal amplification up to 5 MHz. Although Losev experimented with the material in radio circuits for years, he died in the 1942 Siege of Leningrad and was unable to advocate for his place in history. His work is largely unknown.

Austro-Hungarian physicist, Julius E. Lilienfeld, moved to the US and in 1926 filed a patent for a “Method and Apparatus for Controlling Electric Currents” in which he described a three-electrode amplifying device using copper-sulfide semiconductor material. Lilienfeld is credited with inventing the electrolytic capacitor but there is no evidence that he built a working amplifier. His patent, however, had sufficient resemblance to the later field effect transistor to deny future patent applications for that structure.

<span>German scientists also contributed to this early research. While working at Cambridge University, England in 1934, German electrical engineer and inventor Oskar Heil filed a patent on controlling current flow in a semiconductor via capacitive coupling at an electrode – essentially a field-effect transistor. And in 1938, Robert Pohl and Rudolf Hilsch experimented on potassium-bromide crystals with three electrodes at Gottingen University. They reported amplification of low-frequency (about 1 Hz) signals. None of this research led to any applications but Heil is remembered in audiophile circles today for his air motion transformer used in high fidelity speakers.</span>

A fish finder uses a sonar device that sends 20,000-Hz sound pulses downward from the bottom of the boat, and then detects echoe
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:  The minimum time between pulses (in fresh water)

= 0.3106 s

Explanation:

To calculate the speed of echoes sounds, we will use

Speed = 2x/t

Where x = distance and t = total time.

Please note that:

sound travels at 343 m/s in air. But it travels at 1,481 m/s in water (almost 4.3 times as fast as in air); 

Total distance = 2 × 230 = 460m

Using speed of sound in water

1481 = 460/t

t = 460/1481

t = 0.3106
