Answer to Problem 1RQ

The north magnetic pole of the earth is a south polarity.

Explanation of Solution

Description:

The earth itself contains magnetic poles. As unlike poles attract each other, the north magnetic pole of a compass needle is attracted to the south magnetic pole of the earth and vice versa.

Hence the north magnetic pole is a geographic south pole.

Conclusion:

The north magnetic pole is a geographic south pole.

Create the PLC ladder logic diagram for the logic gate circuit displayed in Figure 7-35. The pilot light red (PLTR) output section has three inputs: PBR, PBG, and SW. Pushbutton red (PBR) and pushbutton green (PBG) are inputs to an XOR logic gate. The output of the XOR logic gate and the inverted switch SW) are inputs to a two-input AND logic gate. These inputs generate the pilot light red (PLTR) output. The two-input AND logic gate output is also fed into a two-input NAND logic PBR PBG SW TSW PLTR Figure 7-35. Logic gate circuit for Example 7-3. PLTW Goodheart-Willcox Publisher gate. The temperature switch (TSW) is the other input to the NAND logic gate. The output generated from the NAND logic gate is labeled pilot light white (PLTW).

Note that when all poles are real, the step response has no overshoot. c) Smallest possible peak time of the system. Note that peak time is the smallest when wa is the largest for the dominant pole. d) Smallest possible settling time of the system. Note that peak time is the smallest when σ is the largest for the dominant pole.
For a band-rejection filter, the response drops below this half power point at two locations as visualised in Figure 7, we need to find these frequencies. Let's call the lower frequency-3dB point as fr and the higher frequency -3dB point fH. We can then find out the bandwidth as f=fHfL, as illustrated in Figure 7. 0dB Af -3 dB Figure 7. Band reject filter response diagram Considering your AC simulation frequency response and referring to Figure 7, measure the following from your AC simulation. 1% accuracy: (a) Upper-3db Frequency (fH) = Hz (b) Lower-3db Frequency (fL) = Hz (c) Bandwidth (Aƒ) = Hz (d) Quality Factor (Q) =
