The primary of a step-up transformer is connected across the terminals of a standard wall socket, and resistor 1 with a resistan

ce r1 is connected across the secondary. the current in the resistor is then measured. next, resistor 2 with a resistance r2 is connected directly across the terminals of the wall socket (without the transformer). the current in this resistor is also measured and found to be the same as the current in resistor 1. how does the resistance r2 compare to the resistance r1? answers

The turns ratio is the factor that determines voltage andcurrent. In order to have the same current across the resistorin the primary as the resistor in the secondary, then:--N(p) = Primary turnsN(s) = Secondary turnsR(2) = Primary resistorR(1) = Secondary resistor--R(2)/R(1) = N(p)/N(s)R(2) = R(1)*(N(p)/N(s))--If arbitrary values are plugged in, you will see that this step up transformer will require 2x the resistance required in the secondary, R(1), to obtain the same current. Thus R(2) will be 1/2 the value of R(1). This is due to the stepped up voltage in the secondary.

In physics what does 7.56 × 5.746 equal ?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

43.43

Explanation:

5.746 x 7.56 = 43.43976

As the least number of desimal is two so our awnser should contain two digits after the decimal point.

Ans: 43.43.

I have a voltage source of 12V but a light that only burns at 5V. The lamp works on 18 mA. Calculate the resistance that you EXT
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

Voltage source, E = 12 V

Voltage rating of the lamp, V = 5 V

Current through the lamp, I = 18 mA

Extra voltage or potential drop, IR =  E- V  

                                                    IR = 12 V - 5 V = 7 V

The resistance that will provide this potential drop (7 V) is calculated as follows:

IR = V

R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{7 \ V}{18 \times 10^{-3} A} \ = 388.89 \ ohms

Therefore, the resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

When looking at a food label, to be considered a good source of a nutrient, the nutrient must be? A.More than 20% of your daily
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

A. More than 20% of your daily recommended amount.

Explanation:

Reading food labels can be tricky. The percent daily value listed on the right of all food labels lets you know what percent out of the recommended daily intake of each nutrient you are consuming in that specific food.

To check if the food you're consuming is a good source of that nutrient you need in higher amount, the nutrient must be labeled 20% or higher.

The rule used here is called the 5/20 rule. According to this rule, A nutrient that is 5% or below is considered less and a nutrient which is labeled 20% or higher is considered good enough in that food source.
