Dangerous of overloading in a circuit,​

Engineering
1 answer:
Leto [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Exceeding the rated load for the circuit wiring causes the circuit breaker to trip, shutting off the power to the entire circuit. If there were no breaker in the circuit, an overload would cause the circuit wiring to overheat, which could melt the wire insulation and lead to a fire

A microwave transmitter has an output of 0.1W at 2 GHz. Assume that this transmitter is used in a microwave communication system
Len [333]

Answer:

gain = 353.3616

P_r = 1.742*10^-8 W

Explanation:

Given:

- The output Power P_o = 0.1 W

- The diameter of the antennas d = 1.2 m

- The frequency of signal f = 2 GHz

Find:

a. What is the gain of each antenna?

b. If the receiving antenna is located 24 km from the transmitting antenna over a free space path, find the available signal power out of the receiving antenna.

Solution:

- The gain of the parabolic antenna is given by the following formula:

                            gain = 0.56 * 4 * pi^2 * r^2 / λ^2

Where, λ : The wavelength of signal

            r: Radius of antenna = d / 2 = 1.2 / 2 = 0.6 m

- The wavelength can be determined by:

                            λ = c / f

                            λ = (3*10^8) / (2*10^9)

                            λ = 0.15 m

- Plug in the values in the gain formula:

                            gain = 0.56 * 4 * pi^2 * 0.6^2 / 0.15^2

                            gain = 353.3616

- The available signal power out from the receiving antenna is:

                            P_r = (gain^2 * λ^2 * W) / (16*pi^2 * 10^2 * 10^6)

                            P_r = (353.36^2 * 0.15^2 * 0.1) / (16*pi^2 * 10^2 * 10^6)

                            P_r = 1.742*10^-8 W

A tool chest has 650 N weight that acts through the midpoint of the chest. The chest is supported by feet at A and rollers at B.
erica [24]

Answer:

the value of horizontal force P is 170.625 N

the value of horizontal force at P = 227.5 N is that the block moves to right and this motion is due to sliding.

Explanation:

The first diagram attached below shows the free body diagram of the tool chest when it is sliding.

Let start out by calculating the friction force

F_f= \mu N_2

where :

F_f = friction force

\mu = coefficient of friction

N_2 = normal friction

Given that:

\mu = 0.3

F_f = 0.3 N_2

Using the equation of equilibrium along horizontal direction.

\sum f_x = 0

P - F_f = 0

P = 0.3 N_2   ----- Equation (1)

To determine the moment about point B ; we have the expression

\sum M_B  = 0

0 = N_2*70-W*35-P*100

where;

P = horizontal force

N_2 = normal force at support A

W = self- weight of tool chest

Replacing W = 650 N

0 = N_2*70-650*35-100*P

P = \frac{70 N_2-22750}{100} ----- equation (2)

Replacing  \frac{70 N_2-22750}{100}  for P in equation (1)

\frac{70N_2 -22750}{100} =0.3 N_2

N_2 = \frac{22750}{40}N_2 = 568.75 \ N

Plugging the value of N_2 = 568.75 \ N in equation (2)

P = \frac{70(568.75)-22750}{100} \\ \\ P = \frac{39812.5-22750}{100}  \\ \\ P = \frac{17062.5}{100}

P =170.625 N

Thus; the value of horizontal force P is 170.625 N

b)  From the second diagram attached the free body diagram; the free body diagram of the tool chest when it is tipping about point A is also shown below:

Taking the moments about point A:

\sum M_A = 0

-(P × 100)+ (W×35) = 0

P = \frac{W*35}{100}

Replacing 650 N  for W

P = \frac{650*35}{100}

P = 227.5 N

Thus; the value of horizontal force P, when the tool chest tipping about point A is 227.5 N

We conclude that the motion will be impending for the lowest value when P = 170.625 N and when P= 227.5 N

However; the value of horizontal force at P = 227.5 N is that the block moves to right and this motion is due to sliding.

Steam enters an adiabatic turbine at 10MPa and 500 C and leaves at 10 kPa with a quality of 90%. Neglecting the changes in kinet
Amanda [17]

Answer:

flow ( m ) = 4.852 kg/s

Explanation:

Given:

- Inlet of Turbine

        P_1 = 10 MPa

        T_1 = 500 C

- Outlet of Turbine

        P_2 = 10 KPa

        x = 0.9

- Power output of Turbine W_out = 5 MW

Find:

Determine the mass ow rate required

Solution:

- Use steam Table A.4 to determine specific enthalpy for inlet conditions:

          P_1 = 10 MPa

          T_1 = 500 C            ---------- > h_1 = 3375.1 KJ/kg

- Use steam Table A.6 to determine specific enthalpy for outlet conditions:

          P_2 = 10 KPa       -------------> h_f = 191.81 KJ/kg

          x = 0.9                  -------------> h_fg = 2392.1 KJ/kg

          h_2 = h_f + x*h_fg

          h_2 = 191.81 + 0.9*2392.1 = 2344.7 KJ/kg

- The work produced by the turbine W_out is given by first Law of thermodynamics:

          W_out = flow(m) * ( h_1 - h_2 )

          flow ( m ) = W_out / ( h_1 - h_2 )

- Plug in values:

          flow ( m ) = 5*10^3 / ( 3375.1 - 2344.7 )

          flow ( m ) = 4.852 kg/s

Use Excel, MatLab or a similar program to plot carrier thermal velocity as a function of temperature for both electrons and hole
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Solution 2:

The thermal energy of any particle is given as = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

where m= Effective mass of the particle,

v= Velocity of the particle

The average kinetic energy is given as =  \frac{3}{2}KT,

where K= Boltzmann Constant

T= Temperautre of the particle

At equilibrium,

1/2 mv² =  3/2 KT

Hence, v= \sqrt{\frac{3KT}{m}}

As, effective mass ratio is calculated with respect to rest mass of electron,

melectron = 0.11 * 9.11 *10-31 kg

mhole =  0.35 *9.11 *10-31 kg

K = 1.38 × 10-23 m2 kg s-2 K-1

Plotting, over a range of temperature of 0 K to 400 K, we obtain the attached Graphs (attached).

Solution 3:

The above two curves plotted are not identical as seen. From the same value of Temperature, and under identical conditons, the Thermal velocity solely depends on effective mass ratio. And it is inversely proportional to effective mass ratio. More the effective mass ratio, less the thermal velocity and flatter the slope of the curve and vice versa. As, the mass ratio of holes is more than that of electrons, the curve of electrons has a steeper slope than that of holes. Hence, the curves are not just identical.
