Two technicians are discussing a fuel gauge on a General Motors vehicle. Technician A says that if the ground wire's connection

to the fuel tank sending unit becomes rusty or corroded, the fuel gauge will read lower than normal. Technician B says that if the power lead to the fuel tank sending unit is disconnected from the tank unit and grounded (ignition on), the fuel gauge should go to empty. Which technician is correct?
a. Technician A only
b. Technician B only
c. Both Technicians A and B
d. Neither Technician A nor B

Answer:

b. Technician B only

Explanation:

There is a float connected to the variable resistor in a fuel tank unit. The resistance of the variable resistor also changes as the fuel level changes. The tank unit's resistance changes, the dash mount gauge also changes and available on driver's display.  

If the tank transmitter is disconnected, the operation will not take place and the resistance change will not be transmitted to the dash unit. The needle will therefore remain the empty one at all times.Even after being rusty, the ground wire connection to the fuel tank will be able to conduct. Hence Technician B   is correct and Technician A is incorrect.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Voltage, V = 1.58 V

Power, P = 1 W

1 A.h

Charge, Q = 1 A.h = 1 x 3600 A.s = 3600 C

Power x time = Voltage x charge

1 x t = 1.58 x 3600

t = 1.58 x 3600 second

t = 1.58 hours

The electric field strength in the space between two closely spaced parallel disks is 1.0 10^5 N/C. This field is the result of
alex41 [277]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the capacitance in the disks, the difference of the potential and the load in the disc.

The capacitance can be expressed in terms of the Area, the permeability constant and the diameter:

C = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

Where,

\epsilon_0 = Permeability constant

A = Cross-sectional Area

d = Diameter

Potential difference between the two disks,

V = Ed

Where,

E = Electric field

d = diameter

Q = Charge on the disk equal to \rightarrow Q=ne=(3.9*10^9)(1.6*10^{-19})= 6.24*10^{-10}C

Through the value found and the expression given for capacitance and potential, we can define the electric charge as

Q = CV

Q = \frac{\epsilon A}{d}(Ed)

Q = \epsilon_0 AE

Q = \epsilon_0 \pi(\frac{d}{2})^2E

Q = \frac{\epsilon \pi d^2E}{4}

Re-arranging the equation to find the diameter of the disks, the equation will be:

d = \sqrt{\frac{4D}{\epsilon_0 \pi E}}

Replacing,

d = \sqrt{\frac{4(6.24*10^{-10})}{(8.85*10^{-12})\pi(1*10^{5})}}

d = 0.0299m

Therefore the diameter of the disks is 0.03m

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs

v²=31²+2×10×40

V=41.96ft/s

b. t=(v-u) /g

t=(41.96-31)/10

t=1.096s
