A mercury thermometer has a glass bulb of interior volume 0.100 cm3 at 10°c. the glass capillary 10) tube above the bulb has an

inner cross-sectional area of 0.012 mm2. the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 1.8 × 10-4 k-1. if the expansion of the glass is negligible, how much will the mercury rise in the capillary tube when the temperature rises from 5°c to 35°c if the bulb was full at 5°c?

Initial volume of mercury is
V = 0.1 cm³

The temperature rise is 35 - 5 = 30 ⁰C = 30 ⁰K.

Because the coefficient of volume expansion is 1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K, the change in volume of the mercury is
ΔV = (1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K)*(30 ⁰K)(0.1 cm³) = 5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³

The cross sectional area of the tube is
A = 0.012 mm² = (0.012x10⁻² cm²).
Therefore the rise of mercury in the tube is
h = ΔV/A
= (5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³)/(0.012x10⁻² cm²)
= 4.5 cm

Answer: 4.5 cm

This problem is about Density.

Density is the ratio of mass to the volume of the object.

$\large {\boxed {\rho = \frac{ m }{ V } } }$

<em>ρ = density of object ( kg / m³ )</em>

<em>m = mass of object ( kg )</em>

<em>V = volume of object ( m³ )</em>

$\texttt{ }$

The volume expansion of object could be calculated using this following formula.

$\boxed {V = Vo ( 1 + 3 \alpha \Delta t )}$

where:

<em>V = final volume after expansion ( m³ )</em>

<em>Vo = initial volume before expansion ( m³ )</em>

<em>α = coefficient of expansion ( /K )</em>

<em>Δt = change in temperature ( K )</em>

<em>Let's tackle the problem!</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<u>Given:</u>

initial volume = Vo = 0.100 cm³

cross-sectional area = A = 0.012 mm² = 0.012 × 10⁻² cm²

coefficient of volume expansion of mercury = γ = 1.8 × 10⁻⁴ /K

change in temperature = Δt = 35 - 5 = 30°C

<u>Asked:</u>

the rise of mercury column = h = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

$h = \Delta V \div A$

$h = (V_o \gamma \Delta t) \div A$

$h = (0.100 \times 1.8 \times 10^{-4} \times 30) \div (0.012 \times 10^{-2})$

$h = 4.5 \texttt{ cm}$

drek231 [11]

Answer:

Technician A and Technician B both are right.

Explanation:

In an AC alternator, there are two windings

1. Stator winding (stationary)

2. Rotor winding (rotating)

The current is induced in the stationary coils due to the magnetic field produced by the rotor. The DC suppy is provided to the rotor winding via slip rings and brushes and a voltage regulator precisely controls this supply to control the current flow through the rotor.

Therefore, both technicians are right.

to 10 Hz. Superimposed on this signal is 60-Hz noise with an amplitude of 0.1 V. It is desired to attenuate the 60-Hz signal to

givi [52]

Answer:

$G \sqrt{1 +(\frac{f}{f_c})^{2n}} = 1$

If we square both sides we got:

$G^2 (1+\frac{f}{f_c})^{2n}= 1$

We divide both sides by $G^2$ and we got:

$(1+\frac{f}{f_c})^{2n} = \frac{1}{G^2}$

Now we can apply log on both sides and we got:

$2n ln(1+\frac{f}{f_c}) = ln (\frac{1}{G^2})$

And solving for n we got:

$n = \frac{ ln (\frac{1}{G^2})}{2ln(1+\frac{f}{f_c})}$

And replacing we got:

$n = \frac{ln (\frac{1}{0.1^2})}{2ln(1+\frac{60}{10})}$

$n = \frac{4.60517}{3.8918}=1.18$

And since n needs to be an integer the correct answer would be n=2 for the filter order.

Explanation:

For this case we can use the formula for the Butterworth filter gain given by:

[tec] G = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 +(\frac{f}{f_c})^{2n}}}[/tex]

Where:

G represent the transfer function and we want that G =0.1 since the desired signal is less than 10% of it's value

$f_c = 10 Hz$ represent the corner frequency

$f= 60 Hz$ represent the original frequency

n represent the filter order and that's the variable that we need to find

$G \sqrt{1 +(\frac{f}{f_c})^{2n}} = 1$

If we square both sides we got:

$G^2 (1+\frac{f}{f_c})^{2n}= 1$

We divide both sides by $G^2$ and we got:

$(1+\frac{f}{f_c})^{2n} = \frac{1}{G^2}$

Now we can apply log on both sides and we got:

$2n ln(1+\frac{f}{f_c}) = ln (\frac{1}{G^2})$

And solving for n we got:

$n = \frac{ ln (\frac{1}{G^2})}{2ln(1+\frac{f}{f_c})}$

And replacing we got:

$n = \frac{ln (\frac{1}{0.1^2})}{2ln(1+\frac{60}{10})}$

$n = \frac{4.60517}{3.8918}=1.18$

And since n needs to be an integer the correct answer would be n=2 for the filter order.

The frequency of the George Washington Bridge is 2.05 Hz. What is its period?

Zina [86]

Answer: 0.5 seconds

Explanation:

Given that:

Frequency of the George Washington Bridge F = 2.05 Hz

Period T = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles a wave can complete in one second. Hence, frequency is the inverse of period.

i.e F = 1/T

2.05Hz = 1/T

T = 1/2.05Hz

T = 0.488 seconds (Rounded to the nearest tenth as 0.5seconds)

Thus, the period of the George Washington Bridge is 0.5 seconds
