A sensor produces a signal with amplitude 15 mV. A voltage amplifier must amplify the signal such that the amplitude of the outp

ut signal is at least 2 V. What is the minimum voltage gain (in dB) for the amplifier to meet the requirements

Nady [450]2 years ago

Answer:

42.50 dB

Explanation:

Determine the minimum voltage gain

amplitude of input signal ( Vi ) = 15 mV

amplitude of output signal ( Vo) = 2 V

Vo = 2 v

therefore ; minimum gain = Vo / Vi =  2 / ( 15 * 10^-3 )

                                                         = 133.33

Minimum gain in DB = 20 log ( 133.33 )

                                  = 42.498 ≈ 42.50 dB

Answer:

Metals have high melting points thus unlikely to degrade when temperatures increase, they can be fabricated and are cost effective due to availability.

Explanation:

Aluminum is the most abundant in the Earth's crust with good thermal and electric properties. It is soft, malleable ,ductile and lighter making it a vital metal in construction industry. An alloy of copper and tin, bronze is a better connector of heat and electricity ,commonly used in automobile industry for bearings and springs production. Steel a carbon alloy has applications in forging and automotive.

An insulated piston-cylinder device contains 0.15 of saturated refrigerant-134a vapor at 0.8 MPa pressure. The refrigerant is no
Stells [14]

Answer:

Assumption:

1. The kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible

2. The cylinder is well insulated and thus heat transfer is negligible.

3. The thermal energy stored in the cylinder itself is negligible.

4. The process is stated to be reversible

Analysis:

a. This is reversible adiabatic(i.e isentropic) process and thus s_{1} =s_{2}

From the refrigerant table A11-A13

P_{1} =0.8MPa   \left \{ {{ {{v_{1}=v_{g}  @0.8MPa =0.025645 m^{3/}/kg } } \atop { {{u_{1}=u_{g}  @0.8MPa =246.82 kJ/kg } -   also  {{s_{1}=s_{g}  @0.8MPa =0.91853 kJ/kgK } } \right.

sat vapor

m=\frac{V}{v_{1} } =\frac{0.15}{0.025645} =5.8491 kg\\and \\\\P_{2} =0.2MPa  \left \{ {{x_{2} =\frac{s_{2} -s_{f} }{s_{fg }}=\frac{0.91853-0.15449}{0.78339}   = 0.9753 \atop {u_{2} =u_{f} +x_{2} }(u_{fg}) =  38.26+0.9753(186.25)= 38.26+181.65 =219.9kJ/kg \right. \\s_{1} = s_{2}

T_{2} =T_{sat @ 0.2MPa} = -10.09^{o}  C

b.) We take the content of the cylinder as the sysytem.

This is a closed system since no mass leaves or enters.

Hence, the energy balance for adiabatic closed system can be expressed as:

E_{in} - E_{out}  =ΔE

w_{b, out}  =ΔU

w_{b, out} =m([tex]u_{1} -u_{2)

w_{b, out}  = workdone during the isentropic process

=5.8491(246.82-219.9)

=5.8491(26.91)

=157.3993

=157.4kJ

Which material would cause a more severe burn if equal masses of two distinct metals are heated to a temperature of 100 °C: the
densk [106]

Answer:

The material with the higher specific heat capacity would cause a more severe burn.

Explanation:

Quantity of heat (Q) = mass of material (m) × specific heat capacity (C) × temperature difference (∆T)

From the formula above, the relationship between Q and C is direct in which increase in one quantity (C) leads to a corresponding increase in the other quantity (Q)

The material with the higher specific heat capacity would produce more heat, thus cause a more severe burn.

Write a function call with arguments tensPlace, onesPlace, and userInt. Be sure to pass the first two arguments as pointers. Sam
Trava [24]

Answer:

#include <stdio.h>

void SplitIntoTensOnes(int* tensDigit, int* onesDigit, int DecVal){

  *tensDigit = (DecVal / 10) % 10;

  *onesDigit = DecVal % 10;

  return;

}

int main(void) {

  int tensPlace = 0;

  int onesPlace = 0;

  int userInt = 0;

  userInt = 41;

  SplitIntoTensOnes(&tensPlace, &onesPlace, userInt);

  printf("tensPlace = %d, onesPlace = %d\n", tensPlace, onesPlace);

  return 0;

}
