Answer:
19 N
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Pressure (P) = 1.9 kPa
Length (L) = 10 cm
Force (F) =?
Next, we shall convert 1.9 KPa to N/m². This can be obtained as follow:
1 KPa = 1000 N/m²
Therefore,
1.9 KPa = 1.9 KPa × 1000 N/m² / 1 KPa
1.9 KPa = 1900 N/m²
Thus, 1.9 KPa is equivalent to 1900 N/m².
Next, we shall convert 10 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:
100 cm = 1 m
Therefore,
10 cm = 10 cm × 1 m / 100 cm
10 cm = 0.1 m
Thus, 10 cm is equivalent to 0.1 m
Next, we shall determine the area of the square. This can be obtained as follow:
Length (L) = 0.1 m
Area of square (A) =?
A = L²
A = 0.1²
A = 0.01 m²
Thus, the area of the square is 0.01 m².
Finally, we shall determine the force that must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red. This can be obtained as follow:
Pressure (P) = 1900 N/m²
Area (A) = 0.01 m²
Force (F) =?
P = F/A
1900 = F / 0.01
Cross multiply
F = 1900 × 0.01
F = 19 N
Therefore, a force of 19 N must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red.
Answer:
d. The ideal diode acts as a short circuit for forward currents and as an open circuit with reverse voltage applied.
Explanation:
Ideal diode acts like an ideal conductor. In case of forward voltage it acts like an ideal conductor. However when it is reverse biased then it behaves like an ideal insulator. You can understand it bu considering a switch. When the voltage is forward then ideal diode acts like a closed switch. When the voltage is reverse biased then ideal diode behaves like an open switch.
That is why we can say that the ideal diode acts as a short circuit (higher conduction) for forward currents and as an open circuit ( zero conduction) with reverse voltage applied.
