Please answer !!!A company wants to install a sensor to monitor the light level in the offices of their buildings. The sensor co

ntains an LDR which has a resistance of 10kohlms in daylight and 100kohlms in the dark . The choice of resistor in the circuit is between one of 25kohlms and 1 megaohlm. The input p.d to the sensing circuit of 12 v . State and explain which resistor is the best choice for the circuit in light and dark which each of the resistors . You could put your calculations in a table .

Answer:

Explanation:

The sensor contains an LDR which has a resistance of 10kohlms in daylight and 100kohlms in the dark.

If the resistor in the circuit is 1 megaohlm, the total resistance in daylight and darkness will be 1.01 megaohms and 1.1 megaohlms.

The percentage difference = (1.1-1.01)/1.1*100% = 8.18%

If the resistor in the circuit is 25 kohlm, the total resistance in daylight and darkness will be 35 kohms and 125 kohlms.

The percentage difference = (125-35)/125*100% = 72%

With the input p.d to the sensing circuit fixed at 12 v, the sensing current will change according to the total resistance. A 72% difference is much more detectable. So the 25 kohm resistor is the better choice.

Answer:

Explanation:

V=IR

I=12/(R of resistor + R of LDR)

R of LDR = 10kohm in light and = 100kohm in dark

R1 =  25kohm

R2 = 1Mohm

solve 4 current

                       light                                       dark

R1        12/(25+10)=0.343mA          12/(25+100)=0.096mA

R2       12/(1000+10)=0.012mA       12/(1000+100)=0.011mA

so R1 is better as its easier 2 tell its light or dark

The sun is the center of the solar system which is surrounded by the nine planets and they tend to orbit the sun in concentric circles with the sun as the center.

<h3>What is the solar system?</h3>

The term solar system has to do with the arrangement of the sun and the planets. The sun lies at the focus of the solar system. Now we know that there are nine planets that orbit around the sun. The distance between the planets and the sun depends on their relative proximity to each other.

Thus, the sun is the center of the solar system which is surrounded by the nine planets and they tend to orbit the sun in concentric circles with the sun as the center.
