Answer:
1500Ω
Explanation:
Given data
voltage = 15 V
total Resistance = 4000Ω
potential drop V = 9.375 V
To find out
R2
Solution
we know R1 +R2 = 4000Ω
So we use here Ohm's law to find out current I
current = voltage / total resistance
I = 15 / 4000 = 3.75 × A
Now we apply Kirchhoffs Voltage Law for find out R2
R2 = ( 15 - V ) / current
R2 = ( 15 - 9.375 ) / 3.75 ×
R2 = 1500Ω
Answer:
W = 112 lb
Explanation:
Given:
- δb = 0.025 in
- E = 29000 ksi (A-36)
- Area A_de = 0.002 in^2
Find:
Compute Weight W attached at C
Solution:
- Use proportion to determine δd:
δd/5 = δb/3
δd = (5/3) * 0.025
δd = 0.0417 in
- Compute εde i.e strain in DE:
εde = δd / Lde
εde = 0.0417 / 3*12
εde = 0.00116
- Compute stress in DE, σde:
σde = E*εde
σde = 29000*0.00116
σde = 33.56 ksi
- Compute the Force F_de:
F_de = σde *A_de
F_de = 33.56*0.002
F_de = 0.0672 kips
- Equilibrium conditions apply:
(M)_a = 0
3*W - 5*F_de = 0
W = (5/3)*F_de
W = (5/3)* 0.0672 = 112 lb
