What is a cultural bias example?
One cultural bias example that is particularly prevalent nowadays is the notion that "all Americans are lazy and fat." The problems with that bias is if a person is American, fit, and works hard, then they must automatically be a foreigner since they do not fit into that role of "an American slob."
Draw the equivalent circuit of UJT?
we can draw an equivalent circuit for UJT USING a DIODE and two resistors.draw a diode in emitter lead ..draw the two resistors in series.As rb1 in base 1 lead ..and rb2 in base 2 lead ..draw rb1 as variable resistor.And put a voltage to the ujt in order to get a positive voltage in base two lead.
Burn-in time for Electronic Devices?
As burn-in for electronic devices is the term used to describe the quality control testing phase of an electronic device then life gets very interesting, very quickly. Integrated Circuits are burned in, assembled devices are test for a time set by the manufacturer which is long enough to find any faulty devices and short enough to save the company money
What is the formula of ohms law?
Ohm's law describes the relationship between ideal resistance, voltage, and current. Voltage is resistance times current. It is a useful rule of thumb for non-technical people and not an absolute law.
Another Answer
Ohm's Law is probably the most misunderstood so-called 'law' in electrical engineering. What it states, in essence, is that 'the ratio of voltage to current is constant for variations in voltage'. Unfortunately, and this is where the misunderstanding comes in, is that Ohm's Law applies to hardly any load! It doesn't apply to most conductors, and it doesn't apply to most electronic components such as diodes, etc. For Ohm's Law to apply, a graph of current against voltage, for variations in voltage, MUST produce a straight line -and this is hardly ever the case! For example, if we tried to draw this graph for, say, tungsten, we'd end up with a curve -which means Ohm's Law doesn't apply to tungsten!
It's also incorrect to say that Ohm's Law is represented by the equation, R = V/I. This equation is derived from the definition of the ohm, and NOT from Ohm's Law.
To summarise, Ohm's 'Law' is NOT a law at all! To be a 'law', it must be universal (i.e. must apply in every case), and that is not the case with Ohm's 'Law'.
How do you connect oscilloscope probe to 120 v outlet to view voltage waveform?
You do this carefully. It might be better to use a plug on a wire where the other end is bare (aptly named suicide cables), connect the oscilloscope, first to the bare wire (firmly), then plug into the wall. This will prevent potential arcing to your probes, which can be relatively expensive depending on your o-scope. I believe last time I looked, they can run upwards of $100 for a good one, so you don't want to ruin them. Make sure hands and equipment are dry.
An even BETTER way is to NOT look at the 120 volts directly, but through a step down transformer; this will keep the voltage at a safer level. If you do this, it's a good idea to fuse the primary connection so you aren't banking on your home breakers. Besides, why do you need to look at the 120v? On o-scope isn't going to show much, other than a nice pretty 60 or 50 Hz signal (harmonic content, flicker, etc. are very small, and if large will be very short lived - thus hard to catch).
Why is it important that the core of a transformer pass through both coils?
If it doesn't, you don't have a transformer. The core is where the magnetic flux will pass, which induces voltage on the secondary (voltage applied to the primary winding induces a magnetic flux in the core, which induces a voltage on the secondary winding); If the core is not passed through one coil, it will not induce a voltage in that winding.
Leakage flux outside the core can result in some inductive coupling, but the job of the core is to couple the primary winding to the secondary winding.
What is burnout protection in temperature transmitter?
Transmitter burnout means failure due to some unknown reasons. Burnout direction means what would you like, your transmitter to output when it fails show maximum value (i.e burnout in high direction) or make it show minimum value (i.e burnout in low direction ). The type of burnout direction would depend upon the different factors such as quality of product, safety of personel, equipment protection.
In embedded system what is 'RTC?
"RTC" is nothing but a Real time clock.....In embedded devices, "Strict dead" lines are are usually incorporated, so in order to maintain its dead lines, a rtc is used.....
The effect of resistance on the rate of charging or discharging a capacitor?
If the resistance is in series with the capacitor, the charge/discharge time is extended.
Formula to calculate min insulation resistance?
insulation resistance = (2 * operating voltage +1000V)
at operating temperature
if you define what you mean by minimum insulation resistance maybe i could help
132,000V on the towers is usually happy with 6' of air
some insulation is far better than air
dry air 500v/mill
thermoplastics 6000v/mill
your power drill has 1/8" - 1/4" of plastic on the cord
and perhaps .001" on the wire in the coils
the cord gets rougher handling
anything practical insulation resistance (2 * operating voltage +1000V)
witch means a 1500Vdc megger is ok for 120V appliances
should be safe to handle if its more than 10megohms
the 1500V will bridge any pinholes or airgaps
NEVER use a vom the 9v battery wont find a pinhole or an air gap
ceramic on heaters and toasters has a way of letting metals diffuse in it lowering the resistance over time also it usually lowers with temperature
so the resistance reading will be a lot lower while its hot
Application of a common - collector amplifier circuit?
Common collector amplifier can be used as a voltage buffer and in impedance matching
What do the first three bands help determine on a resistor?
The first three bands on a resistor tell you what its resistance is. The first band is the first digit, the second band is the second digit, and the third band is the number of zeros to add. Use the resistor color code to convert...
0 Black
1 Brown
2 Red
3 Orange
4 Yellow
5 Green
6 Blue
7 Violet
8 Grey
9 White
As an example, a 27000 ohm resistor would be Red - Violet - Orange.
If the third band is Silver, the multiplier is 0.1 and, if the third band is Gold, the multiplier is 0.01. For example, a 0.39 ohm resistor would be Orange - Gray - Gold.
What are the disadvantages of servo motors?
Top Ten DC Servo (brush type) Disadvantages (besides higher relative cost):
1) Requires "tuning" to stabilize feedback loop.
2) Motor "runs away" when something breaks. Safety circuits required.
3) Complex. Requires encoder.
4) Brush wear limits life to 2,000 hrs. Service is then required. This system causes friction between the brush and commutator, which requires replacing and maintenance
5) Peak torque is limited to a 1% duty cycle.
6) Motor can be damaged by sustained overload.
7) Bewildering choice of motors, encoders, servo drives.
8) Power supply current 10 times average to use peak torque. See (5).
9) Motor develops peak power at higher speeds. Gearing often required.
10) Poor motor cooling. Ventilated motors are easily contaminated.
In a series circuit each device that is added to the circuit decreases the what?
Depends on the device. If it is a resistor and you have a fixed voltage then the circuit will obey Ohms law. Voltage = Current x Resistance. So if R increases by adding more resistors in series and the voltage is constant, the current will decrease.
What is the difference is 22D and 22M for connector contact size ratings?

Why are capacitors cylindrical?
Capacitors are cylindrical to limit the capacitors physical size.
Capacitors are basically two conducting sheets with an insulating sheet between them, this means that the way to make them more compact is to roll them up and hence this gives the cylindrical shape.
Another Answer
Capacitors are not necessarily cylindrical. Those that are, are manufactured by winding the two plates and the dielectric, swiss-roll style.
