I just want an intuitive but valid way to describe a set S where every element in S is a coordinate (x, y, z, t) and every component is a real number multiplied by 1 standard unit of measure. This is how I'd like to describe S, but I don't know if it's too inconsistent with convention. Let Rm =...
17. ### Making sense of it all

33 ms = 33 x 10-3 s = 0.033 s So, the duty cycle is (0.033 s ÷ T s) x 100% = 3% (what is the value of T) Transposing the formula gives T s = insert your workings here = = Ans A s = Ans B ms 1 hour = 60min x 60 s = 3 600...
