    Engineering Does a Thevenin Equivalent Circuit Accurately Predict Power in Variable Loads?

    In a thevenin equivalent circuit are you able to find the power used in the circuit by the variable load? I have a circuit where the variable load is in parrallel I was thinking the power used in the original circuit by the variable load would be different than in the equivalent because it is...

    Determine the probability that a random variable

    to do it on your casio classpad you can use the stats program. click on the calc dropdown, all the way at the bottom is distribution, click on that then you want to use normal CD, click next and use your lower value as -infinity then you should be able to figure the rest.

    What is the Torque Produced by a Beam and Sign on a Wall?

    the only thing i changed from the book is that it says a light rather than a sign.. but i think it may be a book error to. This book has many errors

    What is the Torque Produced by a Beam and Sign on a Wall?

    Homework Statement a uniform 2kg horizontal beam is 50cm long is bolted to a wall and supports a 5kg sign. calculate the tourqe produced by the combined weight of the beam and the sign about where it is mounted to the wall. Homework Equations tourqe = F x Perpendicular distance The...

    Prove Complex Conjugate: z=cisθ

    Ah that makes it a lot easyer, i totally forgot about when the denominator is imaginary that you multiply both numerator and denomiator by the conjugate. Thanks alot!

    Prove Complex Conjugate: z=cisθ

    Homework Statement i am supposed to prove that for the complex number z=cis\theta the conjugate is \frac{1}{\overline{z}} Homework Equations if z=a+bi \overline{z}=a-bi The Attempt at a Solution all that i can think of is that \frac{1}{cos\theta i sin \theta} =(cos \theta i sin...

    Calculating Loop Radius for Force of 5x Pilot Weight on Plane

    hmm yeah i think i may have answered my own question since it is at the top of the loop now we add weight force to the centripetal force which is in turn 4mg so it would be 5mg then??

    Calculating Loop Radius for Force of 5x Pilot Weight on Plane

    What if you had to find the force at the top of the loop would you use 6mg+(mv^2/r)?? because the weight force is acting downwards now?? Sorry Sirsh its everyones question now!

    Can a Molecule Share 4 Bonded Electrons?

    Ok cool i see this happens molybdenum. Also what would happen to phsical properties? ultra hard? Ultra unreactive?

    Can a Molecule Share 4 Bonded Electrons?

    Hmm so can actually happen just not with carbon, i get why now because of its tetrahedral shape. Also is there any special names for these substances, as well as would you know what the most amount of bonds there are possible?

    Can a Molecule Share 4 Bonded Electrons?

    I am wandering whether this can happen? When a molecule shares 4 pairs of bonded electons? Say like a C2 Molecule?? maybe. Could it happen or does it happen??

    Proving the Integral of sqrt(a^2-x^2) without a Prefix

    okay i was finally able to prove it! \int\sqrt{a^2-x^2} dx =\int a^2-a^2sin^2\Theta acos\Theta d\Theta =\int\sqrt{a^2(1-sin^2\Theta} acos\Theta d\Theta =\int\sqrt{a^2cos^2\Theta} acos\Theta d\Theta =\int a^2cos^2\Theta d\Theta =\frac{a^2}{2}(\Theta+sin\Thetacos\Theta) i know...

    Proving the Integral of sqrt(a^2-x^2) without a Prefix

    ok so if i do... \int\sqrt{9-9sin^2\Theta} =\int3-3sin\Theta =3\Theta+3cos\Theta is it going in the right direction now?? thanks for the help
