The watts that are consumed is 80 watts.

<h3>What power factor?</h3>

The term power factor has to do with the measure of the efficiency of the use of energy. Recall that power is defined as the rate of doing work. The magnitude of the power factor shows the extent to which the power is used.

Now, to obtain the watts are consumed in a circuit having a power factor of 0. 2 if the input is 100 vac at 4 amperes we have; V × I × PF = 100V × 4A × 0.2 = 80 watts.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is A : Orientation dependence of normal and shear stresses at a point in mechanical members

Explanation:

Since we know that in a general element of any loaded object the normal and shearing stresses vary in the whole body which can be mathematically represented as

$\sigma _{x'x'}=\frac{\sigma _{xx}+\sigma _{yy}}{2}+\frac{\sigma _{xx}-\sigma _{yy}}{2}cos(2\theta )+\tau _{xy}sin(2\theta )$

And $\tau _{x'x'}=-\frac{\sigma _{xx}-\sigma _{yy}}{2}sin(2\theta )+\tau _{xy}cos(2\theta )$

Mohr's circle is the graphical representation of the variation represented by the above 2 formulae in the general oriented element of a body that is under stresses.

The Mohr circle is graphically displayed in the attached figure.

Answer:

Following are the proving to this question:

Explanation:

$\frac{D_1}{D} = \frac{1}{(2f(\frac{l}{D}))^{\frac{1}{4}}}$

using the energy equation for entry and exit value :

$\to \frac{p_o}{y} +\frac{V^{2}_{o}}{2g}+Z_0 = \frac{p_1}{y} +\frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2g}+Z_1+ f \frac{l}{D}\frac{V^{2}}{2g}$

where

$\to p_0=p_1=0\\\\\to Z_0=Z_1=H\\\\\to v_0=0\\\\AV =A_1V_1 \\\\\to V=(\frac{D_1}{D})^2 V_1\\\\\to V^2=(\frac{D_1}{D})^4 V^{2}_{1}$

$= (\frac{1}{(2f (\frac{l}{D} ))^{\frac{1}{4}}})^4\ V^{2}_{1}\\\\$

$= \frac{1}{(2f (\frac{l}{D}) )} \ V^{2}_{1}\\$

$\to \frac{p_o}{y} +\frac{V^{2}_{o}}{2g}+Z_0 =\frac{p_1}{y} +\frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2g}+Z_1+ f \frac{l}{D}\frac{V^{2}}{2g} \\\\$

$\to 0+0+Z_0 = 0 +\frac{V^{2}_{1} }{2g} +Z_1+ f \frac{l}{D} \frac{\frac{1}{(2f(\frac{l}{D}))}\ V^{2}_{1}}{2g} \\\\\to Z_0 -Z_1 = +\frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2g} \ (1+f\frac{l}{D}\frac{1}{(2f(\frac{l}{D}) )} ) \\\\\to H= \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2g} (\frac{3}{2}) \\\\\to \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2g} = H(\frac{3}{2})$

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

D. Both pull-in and hold-in windings are energized.

Explanation:

The instant the ignition switch is turned to the start position, "Both pull-in and hold-in windings are energized." This is because the moment the ignition switch is turned to the start position, voltage passes through to the S terminal of the solenoid.

The hold-in winding is attached to the case of the solenoid. Similarly, the pull-in winding is also attached to the starter motor. Thereby, the current will move across both windings by getting energized to generate a strong magnetic field.
