Distinguish between constant parameter and time varying parameter system?

A constant parameter is one that does not vary over time, or varies so slowly, or within a very small, allowable range, that it can be used as a constant. One such parameter is the average temperature of the universe, which is 3 Kelvin. We theorize that over time it will gradually decrease with the expansion of the universe, but in practical terms, in a period of billions of years, it is held as a constant.

Diurnal light and dark cycles (day time and night time) is an example of a time varying parameter. The intensity of solar radiation, measured in a specific location, varies continuously during each day, and the length of each day varies continously through the year.

How do you find the voltage at a point in a circuit with respect to a negative voltage?

First of all, 'voltage' means potential difference -and you cannot have a potential difference 'at a point'. Similarly, you cannot have a 'negative' potential difference, so it doesn't make sense to talk about a 'negative voltage'.

Your question, therefore, should read: 'How do you find the potential at a point in a circuit with respect to a negative potential?'

The answer is that you simply connect a voltmeter between the two points. The reading will give you the value of the potential. If it reads upscale, then it'll be positive; if it reads downscale, then it will be negative (i.e. even more negative tan the reference potential).

Why you use resistor in a circuit?

I=V/R, this is a most basic equation to use to understand what a resistor is and what it does, from the equation it can be seen that an increase of V, will result in an increase of I, also an increase of R will result in a decrease of I, because of that, resistors are used to reduce I so as to control the level of V in a circuit.

Is TWO OR MORE batteries and two or more loads can be defined as series circuit Or a series circuit has only just ONE source (battery) and 2 or more loads?

Your question is very muddled and it is difficult to understand exactly what you are asking.

Something is in "series" if it is connected in the circuit as a "daisy chain". Thus both loads AND batteries may be placed in series.

How much load carrys in 160a 3 pole TP isolator?

A 160A three-pole (TP) isolator can typically handle a maximum load of 160 amperes per phase. However, the actual load it can carry depends on factors such as the type of load, ambient temperature, and installation conditions. It's important to ensure that the isolator is used within its rated capacity to prevent overheating or damage. Always refer to the manufacturer's specifications and local electrical codes for precise guidelines.

How do you make improvised generator?

To make an improvised generator, you can use a bicycle dynamo or a small DC motor connected to a bicycle wheel. As you pedal or spin the wheel, the dynamo or motor generates electricity. You can connect the output to a battery or LED light for simple applications. Ensure proper connections and safety precautions when handling electrical components.

What is the significant relationship of the no load loss in excitation current test in transformer?

The no load losses are the losses caused by energizing the transformer. These are constant losses, regardless of loading. This in effect tells you the efficiency of the transformer. (Power in) - (no load losses) = (Power out)

How does the amount of current in a home circuit differ from the amount of current in a reading lamp?

The current in a reading lamp would be a small part of the total current in a home. For example, a home may have 100 amp service, while a reading light may draw less than 1 amp, so about 1% of the total.

Is it possible to synchronize two or three generators of different KVA ratings?

Yes. In fact hundreds of generators of different sizes are run in sync with each other every day ;-) Now, it may require some special equipment, depending on how you're setting this up.

What size motor overloads to put on a 3 phase motor.i how to go about to calculate this. its a 5 HP Motor208-230 volt12.9amp at 208SF1.25 SFA 16.1. the motor is a outdoor motor replacing and old o?

5 HP is equal to 3.7 KW. 415 Volts 3 phase 50 hz system takes 6.29 amps. Same 3.7 KW motor with 230 volts, single phase 50 hz takes 18.9 amps. Same 3.7 kw motor with 230 volts three phase 50 Hz takes 11.1 amps. These are full load current with 0.85 assumed power factor.

To arrive at over load, you may 5 to10% over load and set the over load setting.

What is meant by phantom loading?

The phantom loading is that no external load is connected in actual sense and the current and pressure coils are connected seperatly so that it will consume only less power. In this connection the voltage across pressure coil will be supply voltage even if the variac is in minimum position. CONNECTION Connect a single phase supply through a single phase variac. Connect the currect coil of wattmeter M and energy meter c1 and an ammeter in series to phase terminal of singlephase variac. The pressure coil of both wattmeter and energymeter should be shorted and connected to phase of supply (not to the variac). The terminal V of wattmeter and p2, c2 of energy meter should be connected to neutral terminal of variac. PROCEDURE Keeping the variac in minimum position and switch on supply. Adjust the variac to get different reading in ammeter and note the time for 5 Revolution of energy meter disc and obtain the wattmeter reading. FORMULAE %error = (R.E - A.E)*100/A.E , WHERE, R.E is the recorded energy = n/N (n=5 & N=energymeter const.) A.E is the actual energy A.E= (wattmeter reading*time)/(3600*1000) while plotting a error graph it will be having a zig-zag shape. Normally the error can be upto 10%

500 volts rms is equivalent to what dc voltage level?

it will be no DC not unless diodes and capacitors are applied. rephrase the question

What occurs to voltage in a series and parallel circuit?

In a DC parallel circuit, equal voltage is applied to each device that is connected in parallel. For example, if three devices are connected in parallel to a 9 volt battery, each device will have 9 volts applied to it. In a DC series circuit, the sum of the voltage drops across each device connected in series equals the source voltage. So say you have three devices connected in series, and they are connected across a 9 volt battery. Each device will have less than 9 volts across it, but if you add the voltage drops across each device togther, it will equal 9 volts. Batteries in series have an additive effect to the voltage. A single AA battery has 1.5V. Two in series will have 3.0V. Batteries in parallel do not experience an additive effect to voltage. To answer this question briefly there is a big difference. The major difference is the resistance the circuit offers when the same components are wired in series or parallel. I do not know how much you want to know, but resistance of a component is measured in Ohms. An easy way to think of ohms is how much force or energy is required to move an object. The less ohms a circuit has the more it can do with the same amount of energy, which in some cases can be a bad thing. To move on, lets say you have two light bulbs, to give a cliche example, and both are 2 ohm load. Now if you wired these two light bulbs in series, connect positive of one bulb to negative of the other and then the others to a battery, the bulbs would be half as bright as one bulb to the same battery. Yet if you wired these in parallel there brightness would be the same as if one light bulb was connected to the circuit. This is because the voltage in the parallel circuit doesn't decrease when you add a light bulb, whereas on the series circuit it does decrease. Hope that helps

What is the difference between mechanical and electrical degrees?

There is no such difference between any of the technical degree because these all are separate fields related with tere own applications but they were connected internally.

Answer

When a device rotates through a complete circle, we say that it has 'rotated through 360o'. In a very simple, two-pole, generator, when the armature (loop of wire) rotates through a 360o, it generates a complete 360o sine wave across its terminals. But with a four-pole machine, the armature needs only to rotate 180o to generate the same 360o sine wave.

To differentiate between the physical rotation of the armature, and the resulting sine wave, we call the former 'mechanical degrees' and the latter we call 'electrical degrees'.

What kind of current used in train?

Trains use DC currents!

It's predominantly AC now but more dc in the early days. Both still in use. See DC and AC section below article-

Why Does resistance cause voltage drop?

According to Ohm's law i.e. E=IR. When we increase resistance, keeping current constant, voltage will increase as in the above formula since E and R are directly proportional.

What is the difference between guassian laplacian and gabor pyramids?

It is simple - An input image is subsampled in the same way - the only difference is that a smoothing kernel one might use, which is {gaussian, laplacian, or gabor kernel}. Hope this helps!
