Cut Off Region of a Transistor

The transistor goes into the cutoff region when the base current (IB) is equal to zero. The collector leakage current ICEO under such conditions is quite low due to the effect of thermally-generated carriers. This means that ICEO can be neglected in the circuit analysis such that VCE will be equal to VCC. During the cutoff region, both the base-collector and the base emitter junctions are reverse biased. Subscript CEO means a representation of the collector to emitter with the base open. This is represented in the circuit below.

Saturation Region of a Transistor

Forward biasing of the base-emitter junction increases the base current. Consequently, ...

Theory overview
A resonant circuit which is in series consists of a capacitor, a resistor and an indicator connected in a loop. At some frequency the inductive and capacitive reactances magnitudes becomes equal and since they are opposite each other they effectively cancel each other. This makes the circuit to be purely resistive as it only ‘sees’ the resistor. Therefore at the resonance frequency the current becomes maximum. At any lower or higher frequency, the net difference between XC and XL should be summed with the value of the resistor; this produces higher impedance and ...

Patterns of Surface Ocean Currents

Surface currents are found in the upper four hundred meters of an ocean body and they form major patterns such as eddies, upwelling, and gyres (Garrishon, 2007). Surface currents result from wind energy that is concentrated in both north and south hemispheres forming trade winds which are easterlies and westerlies (Garrishon, 2007). Waves on the sea surface transfer some of the energy from the moving air to the water by friction. Pulling of wind on the surface of ocean causes an accumulation of water with the water displaced underneath the wind forming the movement.

Wind Physics Basics
Wind is atmospheric air which is in motion
Energy Source
The earth surface absorbs solar radiation differently. Some parts absorb more radiation than other. This creates pressure zones. As a result of pressure, air moves from high-pressure zones to low-pressure zones. This causes atmospheric air motion known as wind. Wind is a renewable source of energy. It is constantly available free of charge (Bhattacharyya, 2011).

The extremely fine particles normally clump together and have difficulty in passing the # 200 sieve. In this experiment, the classification of soils is done in order to determine the percentage of soil particle that passes the # 200 sieve. The Wet analysis is used to determine the fine particles in the soil sample (“45Th Anniversary of The Journal, 16)

Cash management:

The major objective is to yield a positive cash flow. This means that there will be need for discerning the different cash needs of the company while also identifying the different sources that can best suit the needs. For the long-term goal, the goal is to achieve an optimal cash balance whereby there is quality between long-term carrying costs and long-term stockout costs. Further, there is need to achieve liquid assets availability for the planning of cash outflows and unexpected events. The strategy to be followed is as follows:
Cash flow is to be forecasted by coming up with ...

Introduction

Torsion test is very important test to know the resistance of material of a material when it is subject to torsion. Resistance of torsion can be denoted by shear modulus which is derived from performing torsion test and creating a graph of angle of twist vs torsion. By measuring the slope of the graph shear modulus is evaluated. Another property of material, Young’s modulus, can also be determined from the value of shear modulus if value of Poisson’s ratio is known. In this lab experiment two metals were ...
