Answer:
0.0659 A
Explanation:
Given that :
( saturation current )
at 25°c = 300 k ( room temperature )
n = 2 for silicon diode
Determine the saturation current at 100 degrees = 373 k
Diode equation at room temperature = I = Io
next we have to determine the value of V at 373 k
q / kT = (1.6 * 10^-19) / (1.38 * 10^-23 * 373) = 31.08 V^-1
Given that I is constant
Io = = 0.0659 A
Answer:
Rate of heat transfer to river=1200MW
So the actual amount of heat rejected ti the river will be less as there will some heat loss to surrounding and in pipes
Explanation:
In order to find the actual heat transfer rate is lower or higher than its value we will first find the rate of heat transfer to power plant:
From First law of thermodynamics:
Rate of heat transfer to river=heat transfer to power plant-work done
Rate of heat transfer to river=2000-800
Rate of heat transfer to river=1200MW
So the actual amount of heat rejected ti the river will be less as there will some heat loss to surrounding and in pipes.
Answer:
Half-wave rectifier converts an AC signal into a DC signal. It's called a half-wave because it only rectify the positive part of an AC signal.
AC Signal = An electrical signal that alternates between positive and negative voltage.
DC Signal = An electrical signal that only has positive voltage.
Rectify = A fancy word for converting something.
Adding a capacitor helps the positive part of the signal stay on longer. This work because the capacitor stores energy kinda like a battery. During the negative part of the AC signal, the energy stored in the capacitor will be drained and used, then the cycle repeats.
The load resistor is just there to prevent a short circuit from happening.
