Answer:

The percentage power lost in the transmission line if the voltage not stepped up is 50%.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current = 60 A

Voltage = 120 V

Resistance = 1.0 ohm

We need to calculate the power

Using formula of power

P=I\times V

Where,I =current

V = voltage

Put the value into the formula

P=60\times120

P=7200\ W

We need to calculate the percentage power lost in the transmission line

If the voltage is not stepped up

Then, the power loss

P'=I^2\times R

Put the value into the formula

P'=(60)^2\times1

P'=3600\ W

The percentage power loss P''

P''=\dfrac{P'}{P}\times100=\dfrac{3600}{7200}\times100

P''=50\%

Hence, The percentage power lost in the transmission line if the voltage not stepped up is 50%.

A rocket of mass m is to be launched fromplanet X, which has a mass M and a radius R. What is the minimum speed that the rocket
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The minimum speed = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

Explanation:

The minimum speed that the rocket must have for it to escape into space is called its escape velocity. If the speed is not attained, the gravitational pull of the planet would pull down the rocket back to its surface. Thus the launch would not be successful.

The minimum speed can be determined by;

                      Escape velocity = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

where: G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet X, and R is its radius.

If the appropriate values of the variables are substituted into the expression, the value of the minimum speed required can be determined.
