Answer:

The weight should be added to the base of the sign to keep it from tipping is 65.6 lb

Explanation:

Given data:

A sigh weighs 40 pounds

Suported by an 18 in x 18 in square

Force of the wind 13.2 lb

Questions: Will the sign tip over, if yes, how much evelnly distributed weight should be added to the base of the sign to keep it from tipping, W = ?

The sign and the post have a length of 6 ft. You need to calculate the distance from the edge to the middle point:

18/2 = 9 in = 0.75 ft

Force acting in the base (40 lb):

F=\frac{40*0.75}{6} =5lb

The weight should be added to the base:

(40+W)*\frac{0.75}{6} =13.2\\W=65.6lb

What is Back EMF? How does it limits the speed of a permanent magnet DC?
ss7ja [257]

Answer and Explanation:

The DC motor has coils inside it which produces magnetic field inside the coil and due to thus magnetic field an emf is induced ,this induced emf is known as back emf. The back emf always acts against the applied voltage. It is represented by E_b

The back emf of the DC motor is given by E_b=\frac{NP\Phi }{60A}

Here N is speed of the motor ,P signifies the number of  poles ,Z signifies the the total number of conductor  and A is number of parallel paths

As from the relation we can see that back emf and speed ar dependent on each other it means back emf limits the speed of DC motor
