Answer:

v_{min} \approx 17.153\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The roller coaster begins with maximum kinetic energy and no gravitational potential energy. The gravitational potential energy reaches its maximum when roller coaster is upside down at the top of the circle. The physical model for the roller coaster is constructed by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{min}^{2} = m\cdot g \cdot h

The minimum velocity is:

v_{min} = \sqrt{2\cdot g \cdot h}

Let assume that radio of curvature is measured in meters. Hence:

v_{min} = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot(15\,m)}

v_{min} \approx 17.153\,\frac{m}{s}

A standard inverting op-amp circuit has an R1 of 10 kΩ and an Rf of 220 kΩ. If the offset current is 100 nA the output offset vo
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The value is  V_{os} = 0.001 \  V

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The circuit resistance is  R_1 =  10 \ k \Omega

     The feedback resistance  is  R_f =  220 \ k \Omega

      The offset current is  I_{os } = 100 \  nA  =  100 * 1)^{-9} \ A

Generally the offset voltage is mathematically reparented as

           V_{os} =  R_f * I_{os}

=>        V_{os} = 10 *10^{3}*  100 *10^{-9}

=>        V_{os} = 0.001 \  V
