A single strain gage has a nominal resistance of 120 ohm. For a quarter bridge with 120 ohm fixed resistors, strain gauge factor

natita [175]

Answer:

Output voltage is 1.507 mV

Solution:

As per the question:

Nominal resistance, R = $120\Omega$

Fixed resistance, R = $120\Omega$

Gauge Factor, G.F = 2.01

Supply Voltage, $V_{s} = 3\ V$

Strain, $\epsilon = 1000\times 10^{-6}\ strain$

Now,

To calculate the output voltage, $V_{o}$ :

WE know that strain is given by:

$\epsilon = \frac{(R + R')^{2}V_{o}}{RR'V_{s}\times G.F}$

Thus

$V_{o} = \frac{RR'V_{s}\epsilon \times G.F}{(R + R')^{2}}$

Now, substituting the suitable values in the above eqn:

$V_{o} = \frac{120\times 120\times 3\times 1000\times 10^{-6}\times 2.01}{(120 + 120)^{2}}$

$V_{o} = 1.507\ mV$

The weight y of a fiddler crab is directly proportional to the 1.25 power of the weight x of its claws. A crab with a body weigh

frez [133]

Answer:

The weight of body is 1.3040 gram.

Explanation:

Given that,

The weight y of a fiddler crab is directly proportional to the 1.25 power of the weight x of its claws.

Suppose a crab with a body weight of 1.8 gram has claws weighing 1.1 gram.

Estimate the weight of a fiddler crab with claws weighing 0.85 gram.

Determine the weight of crab body

We need to calculate the value of proportional constant

$y\propto x^{1.25}$

$y=kx^{1.25}$

$k=\dfrac{y}{x^{1.25}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{1.8}{1.1^{1.25}}$

$k=1.5978$

We need to calculate the crab weight

$y=kx^{1.25}$

Here, x = 0.85 g

Put the value into the formula

$y=1.5978\times(0.85)^{1.25}$

$y=1.3040\ gram$

Hence, The weight of body is 1.3040 gram.

A person sits on a freely spinning lab stool that has no friction in its axle. When this person extends her arms, A. her moment

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

C. her moment of inertia increases and her angular speed decreases

D. her moment of inertia increases and her angular speed decreases

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of a body is the sum of the products of an increment of mass and the square of its distance from the center of rotation. When a spinning person extends her arms, part of her mass increases its distance from the center of rotation, so increases the moment of inertia.

The kinetic energy of a spinning body is jointly proportional to the moment of inertia and the square of the angular speed. Hence an increase in moment of inertia will result in a decrease in angular speed unless there is a change in the rotational kinetic energy.

This effect is used by figure skaters to increase their spin rate by drawing their arms and legs closer to the axis of rotation. Similarly, they can slow the spin by extending arms and legs.

When the person extends her arms, her moment of inertia increases and her angular speed decreases.
