The Type K thermocouple has a sensitivity of about 41 micro-Volts/℃, i.e. for each degree difference in the junction temperature

, the output changes by 41 micro-Volts. If you have a 32-bit ADC, what is the smallest temperature change you can detect if the ADC range is 10 V?

Answer:

5.68*10^-5 °C

Explanation:

ADC is an acronym that means analog to digital conversion.

The numbers of bit in any ADC is the level of Voltage it possess.

The question states 32 bits, this means that it's total voltage levels is 2^32

Also, the question gives us a range of 10 V for the ADC. Now we can evaluate the resolution of the voltage as:

Δv = 10 / (2^32)

Δv = 10 / 4.29^9

Δv = 2.33*10^-9

The thermocouple sensitivity is 41 micro volts/°C

Thermocouple sensitivity = Δv/ΔT, where ΔT is the temperature change

ΔT = Δv/thermocouple sensitivity

ΔT = 2.33*10^-9 / 41*10^-6

ΔT = 5.68*10^-5 °C

Thus, the smallest temperature change is 5.68*10^-5 °C

If Pete ( mass=90.0kg) weights himself and finds that he weighs 30.0 pounds, how far away from the surface of the earth is he
shutvik [7]

Answer: 9938.8 km

Explanation:

1 pound-force = 4.48 N

30.0 pounds-force = 134.4 N

The force of gravitation between Earth and object on the surface of is given by:

F = \frac{GMm}{R^2} = mg

Where M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the object, R (6371 km) is the radius of the Earth.

At height, h above the surface of the Earth, the weight of the object:

(mg)'= \frac{GMm}{(R+h)^2}

we need to find "h"

taking the ratio of two:

\frac{mg}{(mg)'}=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{90kg \times 9.8 m/s^2}{134.4 N}=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}\\ \Rightarrow 6.56 R^2= (R+h)^2 \Rightarrow h= (2.56-1)R\\ \Rightarrow h = 1.56 R = 1.56 \times 6371 km = 9938. 8 km

Hence, Pete would weigh 30 pounds at 9938.8 km above the surface of the Earth.

Sharks are generally negatively buoyant; the upward buoyant force is less than the weight force. This is one reason sharks tend
Tresset [83]

Answer:

8.67807 N

34.7123 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of shark = 92 kg

\rho_{se} = Density of seawater = 1030 kg/m³

\rho_{f} = Density of freshwater = 1000 kg/m³

\rho_{sh} = Density of shark = 1040 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Net force on the fin is (seawater)

F_n=mg-V_s\rho_{se}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=mg-\frac{m}{\rho_{sh}}\rho_{se}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=92\times 9.81-\frac{92}{1040}\times 1030\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=8.67807\ N

The lift force required in seawater is 8.67807 N

Net force on the fin is (freshwater)

F_n=mg-V_s\rho_{f}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=mg-\frac{m}{\rho_{sh}}\rho_{f}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=92\times 9.81-\frac{92}{1040}\times 1000\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=34.7123\ N

The lift force required in a river is 34.7123 N

If a 1,300 kg car with no people inside is on the edge of a cliff 1,500 m above the ground, what is its potential energy?
Ghella [55]

<u>Given that</u>

mass (m) = 1300 Kg ,

height (h) = 1500 m

Determine the potential energy ?

     P.E = m × g × h

           = 1300 × 9.81 × 1500

           = 19129500  Joules

           = 19129.5 KJ

The statements below are all true. Some of them represent important reasons why the giant impact hypothesis for the Moon’s forma
Molodets [167]

Answer:

the order of importance must be     b e a f c

Explanation:

Modern theories indicate that the moon was formed by the collision of a bad plant with the Earth during its initial cooling period, due to which part of the earth's material was volatilized and as a ring of remains that eventually consolidated in Moon.

Based on the aforementioned, let's analyze the statements in order of importance

b) True. Since the moon is material evaporated from Earth, its compassion is similar

e) True. If the moon is material volatilized from the earth it must train a finite receding speed

a) True. The solar system was full of small bodies in erratic orbits that wander between and with larger bodies

f) False. The moon's rotation and translation are equal has no relation to its formation phase

c) false. The amount of vaporized material on the moon is large

Therefore, the order of importance must be

         b e a f c

A chair of mass 30.0 kg is at rest on a horizontal floor. The floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of 8
miv72 [106K]
First make sure you draw a force diagram. You should have Fn going up, Fg going down, Ff going left and another Fn going diagonally down to the right. The angle of the diagonal Fn (we'll call it Fn2) is 35° and Fn2 itself is 80N. Fn2 can be divided into two forces: Fn2x which is horizontal, and Fn2y which is vertical. Right now we only care about Fn2y.

To solve for Fn2y we use what we're given and some trig. Drawing out the actual force of Fn2 along with Fn2x and Fn2y we can see it makes a right triangle, with 80 as the hypotenuse. We want to solve for Fn2y which is the opposite side, so Sin(35)=y/80. Fn2y= 80sin35 = 45.89N

Next we solve for Fg. To do this we use Fg= 9.8 * m. Mass = 30kg, so Fg = 9.8 * 30 = 294N.

Since the chair isn't moving up or down, we can set our equation equal to zero. The net force equation in the vertical direction will be Fn + Fn2y -Fg = 0. If we plug in what we know, we get Fn + 45.89 -294 = 0. Then solve this algebraically.

Fn +45.89 -294 = 0
Fn +45.89 = 294
Fn = 248.11 N

You'll get a more accurate answer if you don't round Fn2y when solving for it, it would be something along the lines of 45.88611 etc
