c) What is the phase angle of this circuit? Does the current lead the total voltage or lag behind it?
d) What is the average power delivered by the battery and dissipated by each component? e) What is the instantaneous current in the circuit, I, Vs, VR, VL, VC at t = 3 seconds?
e) What is the instantaneous current in the circuit, I, Vs, VR, VL, VC at t = 3 seconds?
h) Same questions but at the resonance frequency.
Answers according to my professor should be:
c) φ = -.938 rads, The current leads the source voltage by .938 rads or the source voltage lags behind the current by .938 rads.
d) PbatteryAvg = PresistorAvg = 23.60 watts, PinductorAvg = PcapacitorAvg = 0 watts
e) I(3) = +.0626 amps, Vsource = -128.65 volts, VR = +15.04 volts, VC = -288.85 volts, VL = +145.15, Vtot = -128.65 volts [Note: Vsource = Vtot = VL + VC + VR] For instantaneous voltages, they simply add up like a regular addition at any time t!
h) φ = 0 rads, The current is in phase with the source voltage.
PbatteryAvg = PresistorAvg = 67.42 watts,
PinductorAvg = PcapacitorAvg = 0 watts
I(3) = -.478 amps, Vsource = -114.74 volts, VR = -114.74 volts, VC = -269.51 volts, VL = +269.51 volts, Vtot = -114.74 volts

A pipe transporting a fluid has an internal diameter of 5.0 m. The fluid has a flow rate of 5.00 × 10−2 m3 /s and a viscosity of 1.00 × 10−3 N/m2 ∙s. The fluid has a density of 695 kg/m3 and a pressure of 1.62 × 104 Pa. Consider the fluid to be ideal. a) Calculate the speed of the fluid in the pipe. b) What is the maximum diameter that the pipe must have if the flow is to be laminar? c) The pipeline rises 10 m into a secondary pipe of internal diameter 2.4 m. What is the new pressure of the fluid in the secondary pipe? d) Under what flow conditions would you expect to have as little energy losses as possible when transporting the fluid? Clearly justify your response.

An object is formed by attaching a uniform, thin rod with a mass of mr = 7.04 kg and length L = 5.16 m to a uniform sphere with mass ms = 35.2 kg and radius R = 1.29 m. Note ms = 5mr and L = 4R.
1)What is the moment of inertia of the object about an axis at the left end of the rod?
2) If the object is fixed at the left end of the rod, what is the angular acceleration if a force F = 418 N is exerted perpendicular to the rod at the center of the rod?
3) What is the moment of inertia of the object about an axis at the center of mass of the object? (Note: the center of mass can be calculated to be located at a point halfway between the center of the sphere and the left edge of the sphere.)
