A circuit contains a 40 ohm resistor and a 60 ohms resistor connected in parallel. If you test this circuit with a DMM you shoul
lorasvet [3.4K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

24Ω

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When resistors are connected in parallel, the reciprocal of their combined resistance, when read with a DMM (Digital Multimeter - for measuring various properties of a circuit or circuit element such as resistance...) is the sum of the reciprocals of their individual resistances.

For example if two resistors of resistances R₁ and R₂ are connected together in parallel, the reciprocal of their combined resistance Rₓ is given by;

\frac{1}{R_x} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}

Solving for Rₓ gives;

R_{x} = \frac{R_1 * R_2}{R_1 + R_2}          ------------------(i)

From the question;

Let

R₁ = resistance of first resistor = 40Ω

R₂ =  resistance of second resistor = 60Ω

Now,

To get their combined or total resistance, Rₓ, substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;  

R_{x} = \frac{40 * 60}{40 + 60}

R_{x} = \frac{2400}{100}

R_{x} = 24 Ω

Therefore, the total resistance is 24Ω

A composite wall is composed of 20 cm of concrete block with k = 0.5 W/m-K and 5 cm of foam insulation with k = 0.03 W/m-K. The
wariber [46]

Answer:

4.8°C

Explanation:

The rate of heat transfer through the wall is given by:

q=\frac{Ak}{L}dT

\frac{q}{A}=\frac{k}{L}dT

Assumptions:

1) the system is at equilibrium

2) the heat transfer from foam side to interface and interface to block side is equal. There is no heat retention at any point

3) the external surface of the wall (concrete block side) is large enough that all heat is dissipated and there is no increase in temperature of the air on that side

{k_{fi}= 0.03 W/m.K

{L_{fi}= 5 cm = 0.05 m

{T_{fi}= 25 \°C

{k_{cb} = 0.5 W/m.K

{L_{cb}= 20 cm = 0.20 m

{T_{cb}= 0 \°C

{T_{m}= ? \°C = temperature at the interface

Solving for {T_{m} will give the temperature at the interface:

\frac{q}{A}=\frac{k_{fi} }{L_{fi} }(T_{fi} -T_{m})=\frac{k_{cb} }{L_{cb} }(T_{m} -T_{cb})

\frac{0.03}{0.05 }(25 -T_{m})=\frac{0.5}{0.2}(T_{m} -0})

15 -0.6T_{m}=2.5T_{m}

3.1T_{m}=15

T_{m}=4.8

Explicar el funcionamiento de un multímetro analógico.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Un multímetro analógico funciona como un medidor de bobina móvil de imán permanente (PMMC) para tomar mediciones eléctricas

Explanation:

El multímetro analógico es un medidor o galvanómetro D'Arsonval que funciona según el principio de los medidores de bobina móvil de imán permanente (PMMC)

Un multímetro analógico está formado por un puntero de aguja unido a una bobina móvil colocada entre el polo norte y sur de un imán permanente dispuesto de tal manera que, cuando una corriente eléctrica fluye a través de la bobina, genera una fuerza de campo magnético que interactúa con el imán fuerza de campo de los imanes permanentes que hace que la bobina se mueva junto con el puntero de la aguja sobre un dial graduado

Para controlar el movimiento del puntero de la aguja, de modo que el par requerido para producir una cantidad de movimiento por corriente detectada por el multímetro, se colocan dos resortes a través de la bobina para proporcionar resistencia al movimiento en ambas direcciones y para permitir la calibración del multímetro analógico.

A rigid tank contains an ideal gas at 40°C that is being stirred by a paddle wheel. The paddle wheel does 240 kJ of work on the
Sergeu [11.5K]

To solve the problem it is necessary to consider the concepts and formulas related to the change of ideal gas entropy.

By definition the entropy change would be defined as

\Delta S = C_p ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1})-Rln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})

Using the Boyle equation we have

\Delta S = C_p ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1})-Rln(\frac{v_1T_2}{v_2T_1})

Where,

C_p = Specific heat at constant pressure

T_1= Initial temperature of gas

T_2= Final temprature of gas

R = Universal gas constant

v_1= Initial specific Volume of gas

v_2= Final specific volume of gas

According to the statement, it is an isothermal process and the tank is therefore rigid

T_1 = T_2, v_2=v_1

The equation would turn out as

\Delta S = C_p ln1-ln1

<em>Therefore the entropy change of the ideal gas is 0</em>

Into the surroundings we have that

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T}

Where,

Q = Heat Exchange

T = Temperature in the surrounding

Replacing with our values we have that

\Delta S = \frac{230kJ}{(30+273)K}

\Delta S = 0.76 kJ/K

<em>Therefore the increase of entropy into the surroundings is 0.76kJ/K</em>

Which statement best describes how a hearing aid works?
Verizon [17]

The following statement best describes how a hearing aid works, An implant bypasses parts of the cochlea and sends messages to the brain, where they are then recognized as sound.

Explanation:

  • The hearing aid works as An implant bypasses parts of the cochlea and sends messages to the brain, where they are then recognized as sound.
  • A hearing aid is a device designed to improve hearing by making sound audible to a person with hearing loss.
  • Modern devices uses all sophisticated digital signal processing to try and improve the speech understanding, intelligibility and comfort for the user, such as signal processing
  • Almost all hearing aids in use in the US are digital hearing aids Devices similar to hearing aids include cochlear implant.
  • Early devices, such as ear trumpets or ear horns, were the passive amplification cones which were designed to gather the sound energy and directly goes into the ear canal.
  • Most common issues with hearing aid fitting and use are the occlusion effect, loudness recruitment, and understanding speech in noise.
