Chapter 1, Problem 1R
What is the purpose of specifications?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Explain the purpose of specifications.
Explanation of Solution
Discussion:
In an architect plan, a standard practice to include a set of detailed specification with each set of plans to prevent confusing details in working drawings.
In the electrical specifications, the size, type, and rating of all electrical parts will be listed, which will be useful for an electrical contractor to estimate the cost of a residential wiring.
Conclusion:
Thus, the purpose of specifications is explained.

- The former expert solved the question, but I didn't understand how he simplified the fractions. A communication satellite is in stationary (synchronous) orbit about the carch (assume altitude of 22.300 statute miles). Its transmitter generates 8.0 W. Assume the transmit- ting antenna is isotropic. Its signal is received by the 210-ft diameter tracking parabo- loidal antenna on the earth at the NASA tracking station at Goldstone, California. Also assume no resistive loss in either antenna, perfect polarization match, and perfect impedance match at both antennas. At a frequency of 2 GHz, determine the: (a) power density (in watts/m²) incident on the receiving antenna. (b) power received by the ground-based antenna whose gain is 60 dB.arrow_forwardDon't use ai to answer I will report you answerarrow_forwardA communication satellite is in stationary (synchronous) orbit about the earch (assume altitude of 22.300 statute miles).
