 Question :

Present average age of A, B and C is 22 years. Three years ago, Average age of B and C is 18 years, then find A’s age 9 years hence? 

(a) 24 years

(b) 27 years

(c) 30 years

(d) 33 years

(e) 36 years


Solution :

Sum of present ages = A+B+C  = 22

                                               3

                                        A+B+C = 66


3 years ago sum of age of B and C

(B+C) + (C-3) = 18

           2

B+C- 6 = 18

     2

B+C-6 = 36

B+C = 42


Present age of A

A+B+C = 66

A+42 = 66

A = 66-42

A = 24


A's age 9 years hence

= 24 + 9

= 33 years

Superposition Theorem Requirement: Power System is a complex network having number of voltage and current sources and number of loads. Now to analyze the network we need to find voltage/current at particular branch or load.  In such cases calculations for thevenin's and norton's theorem becomes difficult. We can use superposition theorem to find voltage/current at any branch or load in complex network. In this theorem only one source considered at a time and total voltage/current is sum of voltage/current obtained by considering individual source.   Statement of Superposition Theorem:

(Solved) An LVDT is connected to an amplifier of gain 250 the output terminals of which are connected to a 5 V voltmeter. The meter's scale can be read to 1/5th of a division and has 100 divisions in all. Given that a core displacement of 0.5 mm provides an output of 2 mV from the LVDT, find, 1. The sensitivity of the LVDT 2. The sensitivity of the whole system 3. The resolution of the instrument in centimeters

 Question : An LVDT is connected to an amplifier of gain 250 the output terminals of which are connected to a 5 V voltmeter. The meter's scale can be read to 1/5th of a division and has 100 divisions in all. Given that a core displacement of 0.5 mm provides an output of 2 mV from the LVDT, find,  1. The sensitivity of the LVDT  2. The sensitivity of the whole system  3. The resolution of the instrument in centimeters Explanation : (a) Sensitivity of LVDT = Output voltage /displacement  Sensitivity of LVDT = 2mV/0.5 mm = 4 mV/mm (b)Sensitivity of whole setup = amplification factor*sensitivity of LVDT  Sensitivity of whole setup = 250*(4 mV/mm) = 1000 mV/mm (c) The resolution of the instrument in centimeters = minimum voltage that can be read by instrument /sensitivity of whole setup  There are 100 divisions to measure upto 5V.  So 1 division can read 5/100 = 0.05V Scale can read 1/5 of a division.  So minimum voltage that can be read = 0.05/5 ...
