Answer:

The Peak value of the output voltage is less or lower than that of the peak value of the input voltage by 0.6V reason been that the voltage is tend to drop across the diode.

Explanation:

This is what we called HALF WAVE RECTIFIER in which the Peak value of the output voltage is less or lower than that of the peak value of the input voltage by 0.6V reason been that the voltage is tend to drop across the diode.

Therefore this is the formula for Half wave rectifier

Vrms = Vm/2 and Vdc

= Vm/π:

Where,

Vrms = rms value of input

Vdc = Average value of input

Vm = peak value of output

Hence, half wave rectifier is a rectifier which allows one half-cycle of an AC voltage waveform to pass which inturn block the other half-cycle which is why this type of rectifiers are often been used to help convert AC voltage to a DC voltage, because they only require a single diode to inorder to construct.

A sum of $500,000 will be invested by a firm two years from now. If money is worth 12%, what will be the worth of this investmen

notka56 [123]

Answer:

investment 10 years from now is $1,238,000 .

Explanation:

given data

sum = $500,000

rate = 12% =0.12

total time = 10 year

solution

as present value After 2 years from now is $500,000

so time period is now = 8 year ( 10 - 2 )

so we apply future value formula that is

Future value = present value × $(1+r)^{t}$ ............1

put here value we get

Future value = $500,000 × $(1+0.12)^{8}$

Future value = $500,000 × 2.476

Future value = $1,238,000

so investment 10 years from now is $1,238,000 .

In a much smaller model of the Gizmo apparatus, a 5 kg mass drops 86 mm (0.086 m) and raises the temperature of 1 gram of water

Orlov [11]

Answer:

The amount of energy transferred to the water is 4.214 J

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the object that drops = 5 kg

The height from which it drops = 86 mm (0.086 m)

The potential energy P.E. is given by the following formula

P.E = m·g·h

Where;

m = The mass of the object = 5 kg

g = The acceleration de to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = The height from which the object is dropped = 0.086 m

Therefore;

P.E. = 5 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.086 m = 4.214 J

Given that the potential energy is converted into heat energy, that raises the 1 g of water by 1°C, we have;

The amount of energy transferred to the water = The potential energy, P.E. = 4.214 J.

water flows in a horizontal constant-area pipe; the pipe diameter is 75 mm and the average flow speed is 5 m/s. At the pipe inle

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Head loss = 28.03 m

Explanation:

According to Bernoulli's theorem for fluids we have

$\frac{P}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V^{2}}{2g}+z=Constant$

Applying this between the 2 given points we have

$\frac{P_{1}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{2g}+z_{1}=\frac{P_{2}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V_{2}^{2}}{2g}+z_{2}+h_{l}$

Here $h_{l}$ is the head loss that occurs

$\therefore h_{l}=\frac{P_{1}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{2g}+z_{1}-\frac{P_{2}}{\gamma _{w}}-\frac{V_{2}^{2}}{2g}-z_{2}$

Since the pipe is horizantal we have $z_{1}-z_{2}=0$

Applying contunity equation between the 2 sections we get

$A_{1}V_{1}=A_{2}V_{2}\\\\\therefore V_{1}=V_{2}(\because A_{1}=A_{2})$

Since the cross sectional area of the both the sections is same thus the speed

is also same

Using this information in the above equation of head loss we obtain

$h_{l}=\frac{1}{\gamma _{w}}(P_{1}-P_{2})$

Applying values we get

$h_{l}=\frac{1}{9810}\times (275\times 10^{3})m\\\\\therefore h_{l}=28.03m$
