This quiz is about reading off the information on the oscilloscope grid. Voltage is vertical, and the reading will always be in divisions and hash marks. Four hash marks divide each division into five smaller intervals, to make it easier to measure a fraction of a division. The voltage division number in the reading will be 0 through 8 -- the bottom line is zero, the top line is 8, and the hash mark will be 0 to 4.
The horizontal axis is time, and the time scale is (hopefully) properly calibrated. There are ten divisions total. Each division is divided up by five hash-marks on the central horizontal line, to make measuring the time easier. If measured from the left side, the central line would be five divisions away, and would be div 5.
One sets the voltage and time units per division on the oscilloscope. The time knob is visible in the introductory figures. The voltage isn't calibrated, though. It will always be referred to in div.
Review the grid above. The time is 3 div, and 3 hash marks to the right of the central line. The knob is set to 2 ms/div. Calculate the time from the central line, in ms. (This requires an exact answer.)

- What is the total current if the total voltage is 180V?arrow_forwardYou start out by driving 233 miles south in 2 hours and 9 minutes, and then you stop and park for a while. Finally you drive another 159 miles north in 3 hours and 52 minutes. The average velocity for your entire trip was 9.84 mph to the south. How much time did you spend parked?arrow_forwardIn astronomy, distances are often expressed in light- years. One light-year is the distance traveled by light in one year. If the distance to a star is 4.9 light-years, what is this distance in meters? (There are 365.25 days in one year.) Number i Unitsarrow_forward
- A hot water heater in a residential home runs for an average of 3.7 hours per day with a heat energy input of 3.7 kW. What would be the annual cost for hot water in this home using an electric hot water heater if the cost of electricity is $0.19/kWh [round your final answer to zero decimal places]?arrow_forwardIf the cost to do business for a particular company is $4,000 for the startup fee plus $250 per day thereafter, write a graph linear equation that could represent the cost over time. How much cost will there be after 1 month (assume that there are 30 days in that month's time)?arrow_forwardYou drive out of a car dealership and go 10 miles east, and then 8 miles south. Then your friend drives 8 miles west, and 6 miles north. If you had a dealer's hominh pigeon in the car, how far would it have to fly to get back to the dealership?arrow_forward
- What is the diameter, to the nearest ruler fraction, of a wire with an area of 2900 circular mils?arrow_forwardA little boy slides down the slide on the playground. The slide is 3.2 meters long and it angles 400 down from the horizontal. How high was the boy when he was sitting at the top of the slide?arrow_forwardA hot water heater in a residential home runs for an average of 2.9 hours per day with a heat energy input of 3.5 kW. What would be the annual cost for hot water in this home using an electric hot water heater if the cost of electricity is $0.14/kWh [round your final answer to zero decimal places]?arrow_forward
