Jeremy has a handful of resistors. All of them, except one, have four bands. The exception has three. Why? A. He should use anot

her because the band may haven't been printed or worn out, and using the resistor could damage the circuit since there's no way to tell its value due to the missing band. B. The resistor has a tolerance of 20%. C. The resistor has a non-decimal value, like 10 ohms, instead of 10.4 ohms. D. The resistor has a low resistance value so it properly only has three bands.

Answer: option B: The resistor has a tolerance of 20%.

Explanation:

Resistors are color coded to identify their value and function. For a 3- Band resistor, reading from the left, first band denotes first digit, second band depicts second digit and third color depicts the multiplier. The absence of fourth band means the resistor has tolerance 20%.

Hence, the correct answer is option B. The resistor has a tolerance of 20%.

(a) Consider the initial-value problem dA/dt = kA, A(0) = A0 as the model for the decay of a radioactive substance. Show that, i
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

a) t = -\frac{ln(2)}{k}

b) See the proof below

A(t) = A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

c) t = 3T \frac{ln(2)}{ln(2)}= 3T

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we have the following differential equation:

\frac{dA}{dt}= kA

With the initial condition A(0) = A_o

We can rewrite the differential equation like this:

\frac{dA}{A} =k dt

And if we integrate both sides we got:

ln |A|= kt + c_1

Where c_1 is a constant. If we apply exponential for both sides we got:

A = e^{kt} e^c = C e^{kt}

Using the initial condition A(0) = A_o we got:

A_o = C

So then our solution for the differential equation is given by:

A(t) = A_o e^{kt}

For the half life we know that we need to find the value of t for where we have A(t) = \frac{1}{2} A_o if we use this condition we have:

\frac{1}{2} A_o = A_o e^{kt}

\frac{1}{2} = e^{kt}

Applying natural log we have this:

ln (\frac{1}{2}) = kt

And then the value of t would be:

t = \frac{ln (1/2)}{k}

And using the fact that ln(1/2) = -ln(2) we have this:

t = -\frac{ln(2)}{k}

Part b

For this case we need to show that the solution on part a can be written as:

A(t) = A_o 2^{-t/T}

For this case we have the following model:

A(t) = A_o e^{kt}

If we replace the value of k obtained from part a we got:

k = -\frac{ln(2)}{T}

A(t) = A_o e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{T} t}

And we can rewrite this expression like this:

A(t) = A_o e^{ln(2) (-\frac{t}{T})}

And we can cancel the exponential with the natural log and we have this:

A(t) = A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

Part c

For this case we want to find the value of t when we have remaining \frac{A_o}{8}

So we can use the following equation:

\frac{A_o}{8}= A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

Simplifying we got:

\frac{1}{8} = 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

We can apply natural log on both sides and we got:

ln(\frac{1}{8}) = -\frac{t}{T} ln(2)

And if we solve for t we got:

t = T \frac{ln(8)}{ln(2)}

We can rewrite this expression like this:

t = T \frac{ln(2^3)}{ln(2)}

Using properties of natural logs we got:

t = 3T \frac{ln(2)}{ln(2)}= 3T

Define the physics quantity of work
umka2103 [35]

Explanation:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through a specific or particular direction.

It is also the difference in the amount of energy expended in using an effort.

 Work done is given as;

 Work done  = F x d CosФ

F is the force applied

d is the displacement

Ф is the angle

 The unit of work done is in Joules.
