A budding electronics hobbyist wants to make a simple 1.0-nF capacitor for tuning her crystal radio, using two sheets of aluminu

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

a. 8 sheets of paper is needed between her plates to get the proper capacitance

b. Area of Aluminum Foil needed = 0.45m²

c. To keep a 1.0-nF, a larger area of Teflon is required.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the distance between two plates.

This is given by

d = Kε0A/C

Where

K = 3

ε0 = Physical Constant = 8.854 * 10^-12 C²/Nm²

A = Area = 22 * 28 = 616cm² = 0.0616m²

C = 1.0-nF = 1 * 10^-12F

So, d = (3 * 8.854 * 10^-12 C²/Nm² * 0.0616) / (1 * 10^-12F)

d = 1.64 * 10^-3m

d = 1.64mm

Now, that the distance has been solved.

The Number of Sheets, N is given by

N = d/d,sheet where d, sheet =the sheet thickness = 0.2mm

N = 1.64/0.2

N = 8.2

N = 8 sheets --- Approximated

Here, she's changed the diameter of the sheets to 12mm

Well make use of the formula in (a) above

Using d = Kε0A/C

Where

d = 12 * 10^-3m

Other constraints remain unchanged

Make A the subject of formula

A = dC/Kε0

A = (12 * 10^-3m * 1 * 10^-12F)/(3 * 8.854 * 10^-12 C²/Nm²)

A= 0.45m²

c. From (b) above

A ∝ 1/K

As the dielectric constant increase, the area decreases

The dielectric constant of a Teflon is 2.1

This means that if she used a Teflon instead, the area will be larger.

So, to keep a 1.0-nF, a larger area of Teflon is required.

In an apartment the interior air temperature is 20°C and exterior air temperatures is 5°C. The wall has inner and outer surface

ELEN [110]

Answer:

20 W/m², 20 W/m², -20 W/m²

Yes, the wall is under steady-state conditions.

Explanation:

Air temperature in room = 20°C

Air temperature outside = 5°C

Wall inner temperature = 16°C

Wall outer temperature = 6°C

Inner heat transfer coefficient = 5 W/m²K

Outer heat transfer coefficient = 20 W/m²K

Heat flux = Concerned heat transfer coefficient × (Difference of the temperatures of the concerned bodies)

q = hΔT

Heat flux from the interior air to the wall = heat transfer coefficient of interior air × (Temperature difference between interior air and exterior wall)

⇒ Heat flux from the interior air to the wall = 5 (20-6) = 20 W/m²

Heat flux from the wall to the exterior air = heat transfer coefficient of exterior air × (Temperature difference between wall and exterior air)

⇒Heat flux from the wall to the exterior air = 20 (6-5) = 20 W/m²

Heat flux from the wall to the interior air = heat transfer coefficient of interior air × (Temperature difference between wall and interior air)

⇒Heat flux from the wall and interior air = 5 (16-20) = -20 W/m²

Here the magnitude of the heat flux are same so the wall is under steady-state conditions.

Answer:

If you're talking about a field engineer then here is the basic description of their job.

Explanation:

They usually inspect and install equipment, direct workers, and report project status. They are in charge of making sure everything works smoothly. Engineers who work in the field oversee projects and are usually traveling.

In a paragraph of 125 words, distinguish the engineering design process from the reverse engineering process, citing at least th

Yuki888 [10]

The difference between the engineering design process and the reverse engineering process are there, but very subtle. The engineering design process is a process based on careful planning and months of designing to create a blueprint for a certain project. The reverse engineering process is the base of learning to create something by working backwards on a previously made inspiration for your project. Three differences are that that the engineering design process doesn't require any physical learning and is more based on mental and written learning (unlike the reverse engineering process). Another difference includes that in the reverse engineering process you don't need to take anything apart and learn how things work based on the on hands aspect of this variety of engineering. The final difference is that the engineering design project is made fresh from your own thoughts and not based off of a similar project.
