Question:

Augment the rectifier circuit of Problem 4.68 with a  capacitor chosen to provide a peak-to-peak ripple voltage of  (i) 10% of the peak output and (ii) 1% of the peak output. In  each case:

(a) What average output voltage results?

(b) What fraction of the cycle does the diode conduct?

(c) What is the average diode current?

(d) What is the peak diode current?

Problem 4.68:

A half-wave rectifier circuit with a 1-kΩ load operates from a 120-V (rms) 60-Hz household supply through  a 10-to-1 step-down transformer. It uses a silicon diode  that can be modeled to have a 0.7-V drop for any current.

Given Information:

Input voltage = 120 Vrms

10 to 1 step-down transformer

Voltage drop at diode = 0.7 V

Load resistance = R = 1 kΩ

Required Information:

 (i) 10% of the peak output and (ii) 1% of the peak output. In  each case:

(a) What average output voltage results?

(b) What fraction of the cycle does the diode conduct?

(c) What is the average diode current?

(d) What is the peak diode current?

Answer:

Case (i)

Vavg = 15.45 V

Conduction of diode = 7.11 %

Iavg = 0.232 A

Ip = 0.449 A

Case (ii)

Vavg = 16.18 V

Conduction of diode = 2.25 %

Iavg = 0.735 A

Ip = 1.453 A

Explanation:

Voltage at the secondary side of the transformer is

Vrms = Vpri/turn ratio

Vrms = 120/10 = 12 V

The relation between rms voltage and peak voltage is

Vp = Vrms/√2

Vp = 12√2 = 16.97 V

Vd = 0.7 V

First we will calculate all the required parameters for the 10% ripple voltage and then for 1% ripple voltage.

case (i) 10% of the peak output:

(a) What average output voltage results?

Average output voltage = Vavg = Vp - Vd - 0.5Vr

Where Vp is the peak output voltage Vd is the voltage drop of diode and Vr is the ripple voltage which is given as a percentage of Vp

Vavg = Vp - Vd - 0.5Vr

Vavg = 16.97 - 0.7 - 0.5[0.1(16.97 - 0.7)]

Vavg = 15.45 V

(b) What fraction of the cycle does the diode conduct?

ω = √2Vr/Vp - Vd

ω = √2*0.1(Vp-Vd)/Vp - Vd

ω = √2*0.1(16.97-0.7)/16.97 - 0.7

ω = 0.447 rad

Conduction of diode = (ω/2π)*100

Conduction of diode = (0.447/2π)*100

Conduction of diode = 7.11 %

(c) What is the average diode current?

Average current = Iavg = Vavg/R[ 1 + π( √2(Vp - Vd)/0.1(Vp-Vd))]

Average current = Iavg = 15.45/1000[ 1 + π( √2(16.97 - 0.7)/0.1(16.97-0.7))]

Average current = Iavg = 0.232 A

(d) What is the peak diode current?

Peak current = Ip = Vavg/R[ 1 + 2π( √2(Vp - Vd)/0.1(Vp-Vd))]

Peak current = Ip = 15.45/1000[ 1 + 2π( √2(16.97 - 0.7)/0.1(16.97-0.7))]

Peak current = Ip = 0.449 A

case (ii) 1% of the peak output:

(a) What average output voltage results?

Vavg = 16.97 - 0.7 - 0.5[0.01(16.97 - 0.7)]

Vavg = 16.18 V

(b) What fraction of the cycle does the diode conduct?

ω = √2*0.01(Vp-Vd)/Vp - Vd

ω = √2*0.01(16.97-0.7)/16.97 - 0.7

ω = 0.1417 rad

Conduction of diode = (0.1417/2π)*100

Conduction of diode = 2.25 %

(c) What is the average diode current?

Average current = Iavg = 16.18/1000[ 1 + π( √2(16.97 - 0.7)/0.01(16.97-0.7))]

Average current = Iavg = 0.735 A

(d) What is the peak diode current?

Peak current = Ip = 16.18/1000[ 1 + 2π( √2(16.97 - 0.7)/0.01(16.97-0.7))]

Peak current = Ip = 1.453 A

If the 50 kg boy were in a spacecraft 5.0r from the center of the earth, what would his weight be?
Lady_Fox [76]
·The acceleration of gravity is proportional to

                       1 / (the square of the distance from the center) .

When we're on the surface, we're 1 radius from the center of the Earth,
and the acceleration of gravity is  9.8 m/s² .

The boy's weight = (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²)

                                                             =      490 newtons .

At the distance of 5 radii from the center (4 radii altitude from the surface),
the acceleration of gravity is

                 (9.8 m/s²) · (1/5)²  =  0.39 m/s² .

The boy's weight is    (mass) · (gravity)  =  (50kg) · (0.39 m/s²)

                                                                  =     19.6 newtons .

Just as we expected, his weight at that distance is

         (19.6 / 490) = 0.04  =  1/25  =  1/5²  of his weight on the surface.

What happens when the temperature of the medium that sound is passing through increases?
MaRussiya [10]
Speed of sound through a medium depends on
● temperature
● density of medium
● speed of wind
● humidy
● moisture
Speed of sound increases with increase in temperature. Because when temperature increases the molecules get higher energy and they vibrate quickly. Due to this vibration sound waves can travel fastly.
