Answer:

Accuracy of measurement = ± 0.19%

Explanation:

For a 8-bit D/A converter,

Accuracy of measurement = 1/2ⁿ = 1/2⁸ = 1/256 = 0.0039 = 0.39% or ± 0.19%

Given that vertical scale is set to 2V/division so the absolute value of the error is 2*0.0019 = ± 3.8 mV

Example:

In a digital oscilloscope, 1 volt/division means that each division on the oscilloscope shows exactly 1 volt, similarly, 0.5 V/division means that each division shows exactly 0.5 volt so 1 V will take 2 divisions hence the signal will appear larger (zoomed in) on the other hand, setting it on 2V/division will make the signal appear smaller (zoomed out).

Note: Volts/division doesn't change the amplitude of the signals, it only makes them appear zoomed in or out so that the required signal can fit on the oscilloscope screen.

Okay it would be really heplful if there was a figure present, now its not clear that where the capacitor (2C) is connected ? is it parallel with the R+C combination or just with C ?
still im going to assume that 2C is being connected with C in parallel

lukranit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the time required for acceleration a₁ and deceleration a₂ be t₁ and t₂ .

Since final velocity during acceleration and initial velocity during deceleration are same

a₁ t₁ = a₂ t₂

5t₁ = 2 t₂ ------------------------------------------ ( 1 )

Distance travelled during acceleration = 1/2 a₁t₁²

= 1/2 x 5 x t₁² = 2.5 t₁²

Distance travelled during deceleration = 1/2 a₂t₂²

= 1/2 x 2 x t₂² = t₂²

Total distance travelled = 2 miles = 2 x 1760 x 3 ft = 10560

2.5 t₁² + t₂² = 10560

2.5 ( 2t₂ / 5  )² + t₂² = 10560

.4 t₂² + t₂² = 10560

1.4 t₂² = 10560

t₂ = 86.85 s

t₁ = 2t₂ / 5 = 34.75 s

t₁ + t₂ = 121.6 = 122 s

Total time taken = 122 s .

maximum velocity = a₁t₁

= 5 x 34.75 = 173.75 = 174 m/s .

Answer:

A leaf is falling from the tree.

Explanation:

If motion is in only one direction(x-direction) then it is know as one directional motion.

If motion is in only two direction (x and y directions) then it is know as two directional motion.

If motion is in only three direction (x , y and z directions) then it is know as three directional motion.

A bird is flying in the air -This is three directional motion.

A leaf is falling from the tree - This is two directional motion.

A train is running on track - This is  one directional motion

A lady is crawling  on the surface of the ball - This is three directional motion.

Therefore the answer is  ---

A leaf is falling from the tree.
