There are six wires which need to be attached to a circuit board. A robotic device will attach the wires. The wires can be attached in any order, and the production manager wishes to determine which order would be fastest for the robot to use. Use the multiplication rule of counting to determine the number of possible sequences of assembly that must be tested. (Hint: There are six choices for the first wire, five for the second wire, four for the third wire, etc. Enter an exact number.)

Compute C5,3. (Enter an exact number.)

Solutions

Expert Solution

Number of possible sequences = 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 720

5C3 = 5! / (3! * (5 - 3)!) = 10

A basic electrical circuit consists of a battery, a light bulb, a switch and wires connecting them. As soon as the switch is closed, even the light bulb is one mile away, the light bulb will be on IMMEDIATELY.  This means that the electrical current (made of moving electrons) starts to run everywhere in the wire as soon as the switch is closed. Explain: a) the origin of these free moving electrons (where do they come from), b) the force(s) that...

(Please just show the design of the circuit) A printed circuit board manufacturing laboratory needs to have controlled environmental conditions, such as temperature, pressure, and humidity. These variables are measured by means of sensors that deliver an electrical signal which must be conditioned before being sent to a microcontroller for processing. The challenge is to perform signal conditioning with pressure sensor op amps with part number MPX4250. The conditions that this signal conditioning must meet are the following: Required work...
