 5. Engineering Ethics 


 5.1 (3 points) What is Ethics:

 5.2 (3 points) Engineers must perform under a standard of professional behaviour that requires adherence to the highest principles of ethical conduct. The National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) Ethics Reference Guide lists six Fundamental Canons for engineers to follow in the fulfillment of their professional duties, list the first three (3) Fundamental Canons in order:

 5.2.1 Canon #1:

 5.2.2 Canon #2:

 5.2.3 Canon #3:

 5.3 (4 points) List any four of the typical ethical issues that engineers may encounter in engineering practice:

 5.3.1: Ethical issue #1

 5.3.2: Ethical issue #2

 5.3.3: Ethical issue #3

 5.3.4: Ethical issue #4

 5.4 (5 points) Why is Ethics important in engineering practice:

a.Agent X and Agent Y are two spies who want to transmit a secret message to their headquarters. In order to ensure secrecy, half of this message is to be transmitted in Urdu by Agent x while the other half in Pashto by Agent Y Both halves when decoded together at the headquarters can convey the complete information and therefore must be sent in a single transmission

They have an AM transmitter but it has one problem that it can only transmit one carrier frequency. How can they simultaneously transmit both messages using this AM transmitter?

b. A radio transmitter TX1 is using amplitude modulation with maximum bandwidth of 10 kHz Due to some technical issue, the amplitude modulator stops working Technicians found out that it will take at least two days to repair the modulator. They have a frequency modulator and they want to use it to transmit the information using frequency modulation. Is it possible with the given constraints? Why or

why not?

Design a modified sequence counter (Student ID Counter) that will count out the following sequence: The first four unique digits in your StudentID (not including the digit 9) followed by the digit 9 and then repeat. Use the excitation table method for your design. Treat unused states as “don’t cares”. Include a switch to initialize the counter to the first count in your sequence. Your design should include the following:

• a state diagram (include only the valid states)

• a circuit excitation table used to determine JK flip-flop input connections

• the K-maps used to generate minimal expressions for JK inputs

(use: 72569, and repeat)

Q1. A station supplies 250 kVA at a lagging power factor (p.f) of 0·8. A synchronous motor is connected
in parallel with the load. If the combined load is 250 kW with a lagging p.f. of 0.9, determine :
(i) the leading kVAR taken by the motor.
(ii) kVA rating of the motor.
(iii) p.f. at which the motor operates.

Q2. A factory consists of the following
(i) An induction motor of 150 h.p with 0.7 p.f lagging and 80% efficiency.
(ii) A synchronous motor of 100 h.p with 0.85 p.f leading at 90% efficiency.
(iii) A lightning load of 50kW.
Find the annual electric charges if the tariff is Rs 100 per annum per kVA maximum demand plus 7
paise per kWh ; assuming the load to be steady throughout the year.
