What is the example of first order instrument?
A first order linear instrument has an output which is given by a non-homogeneous first order linear differential equationtau.dy(t)/dt + y(t) = K.x(t),where tau is a constant, called the time constantof the instrument.In these instruments there is a time delay in their response to changes of input. The time constant tau is a measure of the time delay.Thermometers for measuring temperature are first-order instruments. The time constant of a measurement of temperature is determined by the thermal capacity of the thermometer and the thermal contact between the thermometer and the body whose temperature is being measured.A cup anemometer for measuring wind speed is also a first order instrument. The time constant depends on the anemometer's moment of inertia.
What did farhrenheit do for science?
Fahrenheit created the first thermometer for measuring temperature. Before he created his thermometer, people did not have a precise way to describe temperature.
Why do you move the middle rider first on a triple beam balance?
your not suppossed to... move the top one first, then the middle, then the lowest. stop at the one that points up then go from there
What kind of joint is the joint between the trapezium and the first metacarpal?
saddle joint
What dose abstract mean?
An abstract is usually the first part of any scientific research paper or journal. It summarizes the main points from the article allowing the reader to know what to expect.
What is the first thing you have to do when measuring the grid azimuth between two points?
plot the points
Evening star first observe with an azimuth in quadrant?
Eastern according to US Coast Guard
What word has E as the first letter and Z as the second letter?
Here are a couple; azimuth, azalea, azure, Azores...
What is produced first current or voltage?
current flows as a result of potential difference i.e. in a circuit if there is no voltage difference between two points, no current can flow between those two points. So voltage has to be produced first.
Who made the first measuring cup?
the answer to this question is who do you think made the first measuring cup?
How do you find the actual distance between two points on Earth using graphic scale?
You first measure the distance between the points as shown on the map, then you compare that measurement with the map scale.
What came first the voltage or the current?
For a current to flow between two points, those points must have a potential difference (voltage) across them.
Between which two points did the first steam engine in the world first run?
The first steam engine in the world first runat 25 mph on the Mohawk & Hudson Railroad between Albany and Schenectady
Why was the first email ever sent?
The first email was sent to test the idea of transferring data between 2 points
What is the slope of the line passing through the points of -8-0 and 1-5?
Passing through the points of -8-0 and 1-5 Difference between y coordinates of first and second points: =(-0) - (-5) = +5 Difference between x coordinates of first and second points: =(-8) - (1) = -9 So slope = 5/(-9) = -5/9
Will a star have an azimuth of 135 degrees?
That's very possible. It simply means that in order to find it, you face southeast, and then look straight ahead and some angle above the horizon. Viewed from the north or south pole, every star in your sky will have an azimuth of 135 degrees once every day. (But first you'd have to decide on a reference direction to designate as zero azimuth, since 'southeast' doesn't exist at the poles.)
What is the formula of the intersection of two lines?
Given coordinates of two points and directions (bearings or azimuths) from those two points, find the coordinates of the point of intersection, assuming that the lines do intersect and are not parallel. Use the Cantuland method to calculate the coordinates of the northing and the easting. This is a simplification of a process that came from the use of simultaneous equations from matrix algebra that employed a trigonomic identity for tangent functions.Northing of the point of intersection:1. Convert the azimuth of the first line to degrees and decimal degrees.2. Find the tangent of the azimuth of the first line.3. Step-two, times the northing of the point on the first line.4. Step-three, minus the easting of the point on the first line.5. Convert the azimuth of the second line to degrees and decimal degrees.6. Find the tangent of the azimuth of the second line.7. Step-six, times the northing of the point on the second line.8. Step-seven, minus the easting of the point on the second line.9. Step-four, minus step-eight.10. Step-two, minus step-six.11. Step-nine, divided by step-ten. That's the northing of the intersection.Now let's find the easting. Most of the steps are the same, except a little bit is added into the process. See steps 4A, 8A and 9.Easting of the point of intersection:1. Convert the azimuth of the first line to degrees and decimal degrees.2. Find the tangent of the azimuth of the first line.3. Step-two, times the northing of the point on the first line.4. Step-three, minus the easting of the point on the first line.4A. Step-four, times step-six.5. Convert the azimuth of the second line to degrees and decimal degrees.6. Find the tangent of the azimuth of the second line.7. Step-six, times the northing of the point on the second line.8. Step-seven, minus the easting of the point on the second line.8A. Step-eight, times step-two.9. Step-4A, minus step-8A.10. Step-two, minus step-six.11. Step-nine, divided by step-ten. That's the easting of the intersection.This works unless the azimuth of one of the lines is 90 degrees or 270 degrees. Tangent of the azimuth of 90 degrees or 270 degrees will result in "undefined", and the above will not work. In this case, swap all calls for "easting" to "northing"; and swap all calls for "northing" to "easting"; and swap the calls for the Tangent function to replace them with Cotangent functions. This adjustment to the process will work for all intersections except when the azimuth of one of the lines is zero degrees or 180 degrees. In those cases, use the unmodified steps as outlined above to take care of those issues.
