The diagram shows a transistor used in a circuit. A signal with a small change in voltage is input into a circuit that includes a transistor connected to 4 resistors and 2 capacitors. The signal output from the transistor has a much larger change in voltage than the input.
What does the diagram show?

an NPN transistor used as an amplifier
an NPN transistor used as a switch
a PNP transistor used as an amplifier
a PNP transistor used as a switch

Electric charge is uniformly distributed inside a nonconducting sphere of radius 0.30 m. the electric field at a point p, which is 0.50 m from the center of the sphere, is 15,000 n/c and is directed radially outward. what is the maximum magnitude of the electric field due to this sphere

You have a resistor and a capacitor of unknown values. first, you charge the capacitor and discharge it through the resistor. by monitoring the capacitor voltage on an oscilloscope, you see that the voltage decays to half its initial value in 2.70 miss . you then use the resistor and capacitor to make a low-pass filter. what is the crossover frequency fc?

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.
