Give a specific example of an everyday device for
which one might want to insert a rectifier circuit (like the one
pictured), rather than directly powering the device from a wall
socket. Explain why this would be a good thing to do.Homework Answers
Ans
Charging car batteries (mobile battery) is one of the many examples where you want to insert a rectifier circuit, rather than directly powering the device from a wall socket. This is need to be done as the battery wont charge up. The power from socket is alternating(varying sinusoidally), so during the first half cycle batteries charge up and during next half cycle they discharge. This goes for all cycles. So the batteries wont charge at all.

11. Why might one expect managers to act in shareholders' interests? Give some reasons. 12. Many firms have devised defenses that make it more difficult or costly for other firms to take them over. How might such defenses affect the firm's agency problems? Are managers of firms with formidable takeover defenses more or less likely to act in the shareholders interests rather than their own? What would you expect to happen to the share price when management proposes...

Static Equilibrium Lab: Wheel and Axle
If you wanted to lift something heavy using this device, would
you have the heavy object connected to the larger disc and then
pull one the smaller disc, or vice-versa? Why? What would be the
effect of using this device on the speed that the object lifts?
That is, if you pulled your string at a speed of 10 cm/s, would the
object lift 10 cm/s, or would it lift faster or slower?

The most common component of a circuit is a resistor. A resistor is a device which resists electrical flow in a circuit. If you think of water flowing, a water resistor is a waterwheel; it reduces the flow while getting something useful out of the flow. We’ll make a few predictions before we start. Answer these questions on your whiteboard. Imagine a resistor in a circuit with current flowing around the circuit. The resistor is simply a wire of a...
