Sir, Coherent sources are defined as sources having same frequency and constant phase difference. In some books it is given that coherent sources have constant phase difference only. Which is correct?

The voltage of an AC source is given by the equation v=180sin377t where v is the instantaneous voltage and t is in seconds. (a) what is the rms value of the voltage? (b) what is the frequency of the ac source? (c) if this voltage is connected to a 40 ohm resistor, find the equation that...

hi, I am not an US citizen, but have a plan to study phD in US. However, I have financial problem. My question is: If I am awarded a phD scholarship, is there still any other "financial sources" that I can work for to earn some more money? If I spend just enough for basic living...

Give three sources of error in your calculation in Part B. Which of these contributions the greatest source of error? Explain. In part B i did 6 steps in determination of Faraday's Constant. 1. I marked two copper strips (to distinguish them) and weigh them 2. Attach these to the...

Hey There, Can anyone help me and maybe can tell when interconnections of ideal dependent or independent ideal sources are valid? I need it please and if anyone got any link, i will be very thankfull, thank you

i keep getting stuck in this problem, i don't see what I am doing wrong. the problem says to determine which sources absorb positive power, then show that algebraic sum of the five absorbed power values is zero. i have attached a picture of the circuit, and here is what i have done: Starting...

I am new to this forum, and am not certain whether this question merits a serious response, or will be laughed out. I have studied undergrad relativity (Various metrics etc), but have not made much headway with tensor maths - yet. So here goes... Something i have often wondered, is whether...

I have to write an error analysis for my lab report, but am having some trouble making my sources of error clear and precise. The lab itself was a very basic investigation of the relationship between the tension, frequency, and mass per unit length (mu) in a standing wave pattern. Some...

What is the difference between a current source using an op amp and one using a single transistor? Why would you use one over the other, etc? Thanks!

Hi. I am thinking aout purchasing a three or four channel low-end DJ Mixer for the multiple sound sources I have in my car. A few questions: What's the deal with all the microphone inputs? I just want to plug in an MP3 Player, a CD Player, and another sound source all at once. There won't...

Basic setup is a photo-detector coupeled with an amplifier. Questions is what are possible sources of non-linear behaviour ? Now, one possible source is obviously the amplification of background noise, but what other sources are there ? Alternatively could one give me a book or website to...

I would like you know everybody's general thoughts on alternative fuels, and aleternative energy. Personally, I think ethanol is a great thing and I'm hoping it gets picked up by more manufacturers. Hydro-fuel cells also seem quite promising, being more efficient and not producing hazardous...

This is a thing that I would like help with. If I was sitting on the sun (impossible I know) would I see light from any other source entering my location? If not why not?

If everyone could tell me exactly what news organizations or whatever, they would consider legitimate sources? For me, I mostly trust any most mainstream news organizations to an extent. Even CNN and FOX can't bend the truth too much, but I will need to double check things if I see them...

Dear Friends, I have some questions about the efects of sink, sources and vortices. Both sink and source in fluids mechanics, are a region near a point that attracts or repels, for example, a particle. In the case of a vortice, in adition, a particle will be atract and approach towards the...

when two souces are used, how many sources must be blocked by the object to produce the unbra? and the penumbra? I looked it up in my textbook and on the internet and i still can't find the answer.

(Any help whatsoever is greatly appreciated) I am looking for good online sources to help me understand relativistic formula's for the equations of Maxwell, and all the stuff that follows from it (like Cherenkov radiation). I realize that's a pretty vague description, so if there is no...

I think we have 3 primary sources on the Earth. 1st – Sun (nuclear fusion) Coal, oil, water dam – it would not exist without the Sun 2nd – Earth (nuclear fission) Hot geysers 3rd – Moon (gravitational force) When it moves ocean waters Anything else is just a secondary energy...

any of you guyes know some decent sources for tight-binding (LCAO) theory? i wish to use the orbitals and the position of the atoms and the angle between the orbitals for calculating the resonance and overlap integrals, but it's hard to find specific sources... so if you happen to know any...

Power Sources in Series/Parallel...? hey, I've got a question. say you had one power source that's about 4v and another that's about 3v. if you hooked them up in parallel the following power source would be (now im' pretty sure I am doing this right..if not..well I am not an electrical...

Consider the current loop in the figure below. Figure: http://east.ilrn.com/graphing/bca/user/appletImage?dbid=1450953670 Determine the magnetic field (in terms of a, I and d) at the origin. So I will use mu as the permeability of free space. Since the two vertical wires have opposite...

I've been attending at high school and I have some ideas about complex numbers. I shared my thoughts with my math teacher. He decided to search. I want to make sure if none have thought them so I need some information about complex numbers. Could you offer me some written sources and the...

I have problem with a circuit. It has two sources of emf, and I'm not sure how to calculate the magnitued of the current in the circuit due to this. Here's what the circuit looks like (R's are resistors, *'s are just for spacing): |----------+|1|------| |*************** | R = 5...

i am a little confused as to whether light intensity at a point source is critical to how the energy will fall off(i know inverse sq ). if there is equivalent intensity from 2 sources will there be the same energy at any given distance? sorry if that is a little convoluted... here is a more...

As many may know, the bacteria Rhodoferax ferrireducens has the ability to take various types of sugar and "convert" it into electricity. Many of you also know that gas prices have sky rocketed. Where am I getting here? I plan on doing a experiment using R. ferrireducens and ethanol from...

positive charges are sources of electric field and -ve charges are sink. what are sources and sink of gravitational fields?

When the age of the universe is estimated via Hubble's Law (v = Hr), the photons that are received were emitted from sources that are now further away - so in the limit of the theory, H = c/R where R is the Hubble scale factor or Hubble Radius at the time the photon was emitted. Closeby...

Does solar cell really only absorbs energy from sunlight? What about other sources of radiation such as thermal radiation? Wouldn't it be great if there are some devices that can recycles energy produced in major cities and convert it into electrical energy?

A train is traveling toward you at 120km/h. The train blows its 400Hz whistle. take the speed of sound to be 340m/s. what's the frequency do you hear? f'=f/(1-vs/vo) 400/(1-(4.32x10^8 / 340)) i got 4.32x10^8 = 120000m * 3600sec what am i doing wrong? The possible answers are: which is...

As we know, the United States consumes more power than any other country in the world. The success of the U.S. can be directly related to its power consumption. Most of our electricity comes from burning fossil fuels (Coal) that puts Co2 in the atmosphere, this is causing major pollution. The...

what is the difference between a phosphorescent source and a fluorescent source? How does a flashlight can be luminous? How can it also be nonluminous? Which kind of light source would be safest to use in building or mines that may be filled with explosive gas?
