Connecting the 4 batteries in series multiplies their voltage while keeping their current the same yielding a 60V 15A configuration. Connecting the 4 batteries in parallel multiplies their current while keeping their voltage the same yieleding a 15V 60A configuration. Using a series-parallel connection, 2 batteries can be connected in series and 2 can be connected in parallel resulting in a 30V 30A configuration.
What is \( 5 \)\( \sqrt{28} \) + \( 7 \)\( \sqrt{7} \)
To add these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
5\( \sqrt{28} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
5\( \sqrt{4 \times 7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
5\( \sqrt{2^2 \times 7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
(5)(2)\( \sqrt{7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
10\( \sqrt{7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:
10\( \sqrt{7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)What is the frequency of most household electrical systems?
60Hz
Electricity is delivered from power stations to customers as AC because it provides a more efficient way to transport electricity over long distances. Most households use electricity with a frequency of 60Hz.
The piston moves downward in the cylinder creating a vacuum that pulls an air-fuel mix into the combustion chamber. This describes which engine stroke?
intake
The four-stroke piston cycle of internal combustion engines starts with the piston at top of the cylinder head (top dead center or TDC) during the intake stroke. The piston moves downward in the cylinder creating a vacuum that pulls an air-fuel mix into the combustion chamber through the now open intake valve.
What is the primary difference between internal and external combustion engines?
where the power is developed
The primary difference between internal and external combustion engines lies in where the power is developed. In an internal combustion engine fuel is ignited and burned inside the same container where the power is developed while in an external combustion engine the fuel is ignited outside the engine and the resulting power sent to it.
The rate of vibration of sound is called:
frequency
The rate of vibration of sound is called frequency and is measured in hertz (Hz). One hertz is one repetition per second and sounds with high frequency have a higher pitch than sounds with lower frequency. Humans can hear sounds in the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
What is the least common multiple of 6 and 12?
The first few multiples of 6 are [6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60] and the first few multiples of 12 are [12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96]. The first few multiples they share are [12, 24, 36, 48, 60] making 12 the smallest multiple 6 and 12 have in common.
