Vilka [71]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Bimetallic strips are used in thermostats for measuring and controlling temperature. The strip is connected to a switch and as the temperature changes, the strip flexes and opens or closes a contact. They are also used in ovens for measuring temperature. An electromechanical thermostat typically contains either a bi-metal coil or a metal strip. When the temperature changes, this coil or strip will move, causing a vial containing mercury to tip to one side. The mercury flows to one end of the vial, signaling that the heating or cooling needs to be turned on.

An EM wave has a wave length of 956 m, What type of electromagnetic waves is this wave
Assoli18 [71]

The electromagnetic spectrum allows finding the result for the question of type of electromagnetic wave has a wavelength of 956 nm

  • The wave is in the near infrared range.

The electromagnetic wave is an oscillation of electric fields and magnets field that sustain each other, this wave time has the characteristics that it can travel without a material medium, for which they are of extreme importance.

Consequently the spectrum of electromagnetic waves to each part has been given a different name second to its use, for example

Range                        Name  

Ultraviolet light          200 to 400 nm

Visible light               400 to 700 nm

Infrared light (heat  ) 700 nm to 1 mm

The latter is subdivided into:

 Near infrared          700 nm to 1000 nm (1 μm)

 Medium infrared        1 μm  to 30 μm

 Far infrared             50 μm to 1000 μm

It indicates that the wavelength of the measured radiation is 956 nm, therefore it is in the near infrared range.

Calculate the energy needed to heat 4 kg of water from 25°C to 45°C.
inna [77]
(1 cal/g °C) x (4000 g) x (45 - 25)°C = 80000 cal = 80 kcal. So the answer is 80 kcal .

if the instantaneous current in the circuit is giveen by I=3 sin theta amperes, the rms value of the current will be
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

I_{rms}=2.12\ A

Explanation:

Given that,

The instantaneous current in the circuit is giveen by :

I=3\sin\theta\ A

We need to find the rms value of the current.

The general equation of current is given by :

I=I_o\sin\theta

It means, I_o=3\ A

We know that,

I_{rms}=\dfrac{I_o}{\sqrt2}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt2}\\\\=2.12\ A

So, the rms value of current is 2.12 A.
