Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution

For the component that are used to start are generally normally open as initially they have open contacts and as the component is turned on the contacts get closed and the circuit starts to work.

Consider the Figure 28-2 the start button here is used to start the operation of the circuit and the other start button here is used to start the operation of the circuit. Where the other start button is connected in parallel to the already existing start button. So any one of both the switches can energize the coil M. Thus, the energized coil changes the position of the M contacts of the circuit. The contacts between the line and the load is then closed and the work starts. As the start button is released, the parallel connected auxiliary contacts gets closed and the circuit operation continues.

Thus, the switch is of normally open type.

(An ellipsoidal trapping region for the Lorenz equations) Show that there is a certain ellipsoidal region E of the form rx2 + σy2 + σ(z − 2r)2 ≤ C such that all trajectories of the Lorenz equations eventually enter E and stay in there forever. For a much stiffer challenge, try to obtain the smallest possible value of C with this property.
A) In a factory, an s-type pitot tube was used to calculate the velocity of dry air for a point inside a stack. Calculate the velocity at that point (ft/sec) using following conditions: ● • • Pressure = 30.23 ± 0.01 in Hg (ambient) Pitot tube coefficient = 0.847 ± 0.03 Temperature = 122 ± 0.1 F (stack) Temperature = 71.2 ± 0.1 F (ambient) AP = 0.324 ± 0.008 in H2O (pitot tube) • AP = 0.891 ± 0.002 in H2O (stack) B) Find the dominant error(s) when determining precision for the problem. C) For part A, what is the precision in ft/sec for the velocity?
