Part 1 Analyzing a Simple RC Circuit

1-2. A snapshot of the circuit built in Multisim is shown in the following figure: 3-6. The function generator’s output is set to the following: sine wave, frequency of 1 kHz, and amplitude VPK = 5 volts. Then, an oscilloscope is added to measure the input and the output voltages. The circuit in Multisim is shown in the following circuit diagram:

Upon running the simulation and adjusting the oscilloscope settings, the following output waveform is displayed in the oscilloscope interface:

7-11. The oscilloscope cursors are adjusted such that the time difference between the two traces are measured. This is done by setting the first cursor to the maximum of the first waveform, and then setting the second ...

Discussion and Comparison of Laparoscopic and Open Surgical Inguinal Hernia Repair in Adults.

Abstract There is an ever increasing number of hernia repair surgeries required likely due to decreasing levels of physical activity amongst young adults and concurrent muscle wastage in the abdomen. Time off from work, staffing issues at hospitals, and cost of hospital bed space are some of the issues associated with the high cost of open surgical methods. Wound infection, decreased mobility, and recurrence of the hernia are problems associated with all surgeries. The last thirty years has seen the advent of laparoscopy and minimally invasive techniques of surgical repair. These methods offer the promises of decreased surgical ...

Introduction

The Questions many Americans are asking themselves is what will happen in the near future in relation to the economic status of the country. However, the question one should be asking is, ‘Is history repeating itself?’ Starting from the great depression, we will focus on the trend that the US economy follows and try to base our stand with regard to the asked question (‘Is history repeating itself?)

The great depression

Economists and historians have been arguing for decades about the actual cause the great depression (1929 to 1932), but none of them produced a cause that could be universally accepted. It is ...
