Acircuit consists of a resistor r in series with an inductor l. when subject to a step input voltage v at time t=0 the differential equation for the system is (di/dt)+(r/l)i=(v/l) what is: (a) the solution for this differential equation, (b) the time constant, (c) the steady state current i?

If you were designing a bumper for a car, would you prefer it to exhibit elastic or plastic deformation? why? consider the functions of a bumper in both a minor "fender-bender" and a major collision.

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2
