Samples A and B are at different initial temperatures when they are placed in a thermally insulated container and allowed to come to thermal equilibrium. Figure (a) gives their temperatures T versus time t. Sample A has a mass of 4.73 kg; sample B has a mass of 1.28 kg. Figure (b) is a general plot for the material of sample B. It shows the temperature change ΔT that the material undergoes when energy is transferred to it as heat Q. The change ΔT is plotted versus the energy Q per unit mass of the material, and the scale of the vertical axis is set by ΔTs = 4.20∘C. What is the specific heat of sample A? (a) (b) Number Units

A double pulse test circuit, as shown below, has a DC-link voltage, VDC = 100 V and the inductor has a value of L = 200 μH. At t = 0, a gate-source voltage, vgs = 20 V is applied to the MOSFET, which is enough to turn it on. The vgs = 20 V is applied for the time period Ton after which it is turned down to vgs = 0 V for the time period Tof. There is no initial current stored in the inductor prior to t = 0. Describe what is the purpose of the double pulse test circuit, and what information can be derived from the use of the circuit? Explain the purpose of the diode in the double pulse test circuit, and what happens if it is removed? Sketch the currents iL, is and iD as a function of time. Calculate the time Ton required for the inductor current (iL) to be 20 A at the end of t = Ton Calculate how much energy is stored in the inductor L at t = Ton The MOSFET has a thermal resistance junction-to-case, Rsc = 0.8 K/W, case-to-heatsink Rcs = 1.2 K/W and heatsink-toambient RsA = 4 K/W. For a maximum junction temperature of TJ max = 175∘C and ambient temperature TA = 50∘C, what is the maximum allowed power dissipation ?
