Answer:

20 mA

Explanation:

We have given that the transformer convert 120 V to 12 V means it is a step down transformer

The turn ratio of the transformer is given as a=\frac{N_1}{N_2}=\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{120}{12}=10 here V_! is primary voltage and V_2 is secondary voltage

As the voltage decreases from primary to secondary so current will increase from primary to secondary

We have given output current that is secondary current so primary that is input current will be less

So input current =\frac{200}{10}=20mA

A car travels a distance of 100 km. For the first 30 minutes it is driven at a constant speed of 80 km/hr. The motor begins to v
gregori [183]

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the distance traveled by the car in the first 30 minutes, d_{\frac{1}{2}}.

Notice that the unit measurement for speed, in this case, is km/hr. Thus, a unit conversion of from minutes into hours is required before proceeding with the calculation, as shown below

                                          d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ \text{speed} \ \times \ \text{time taken} \\ \\ \\ d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ 80 \ \text{km h}^{-1} \ \times \ \left(\displaystyle\frac{30}{60} \ \text{h}\right) \\ \\ \\ d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ 80 \ \text{km h}^{-1} \ \times \ 0.5 \ \text{h} \\ \\ \\ d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ 40 \ \text{km}

Now, it is known that the car traveled 40 km for the first 30 minutes. Hence, the remaining distance, d_{\text{remain}} , in which the driver reduces the speed to 40km/hr is

                                             d_{\text{remain}} \ = \ 100 \ \text{km} \ - \ 40 \ \text{km} \\ \\ \\ d_{\text{remain}} \ = \ 60 \ \text{km}.

Subsequently, we would also like to know the time taken for the car to reach its destination, denoted by  t_{\text{remian}}.

                                              t_{\text{remain}} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \\ \\ \\ t_{\text{remain}} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{60 \ \text{km}}{40 \ \text{km hr}^{-1}} \\ \\ \\ t_{\text{remain}} \ = \ 1.5 \ \text{hours}.

Finally, with all the required values at hand, the average speed of the car for the entire trip is calculated as the ratio of the change in distance over the change in time.

                                                     \text{speed} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{\Delta d}{\Delta t} \\ \\ \\ \text{speed} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{100 \ \text{km}}{(0.5 \ \text{hr} \ + \ 1.5 \ \text{hr})} \\ \\ \\ \text{speed} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{100 \ \text{km}}{2 \ \text{hr}} \\ \\ \\ \text{speed} \ = \ 50 \ \text{km hr}^{-1}

Therefore, the average speed of the car is 50 km/hr.

Explain how this sand dune was created using the words weathering, erosion, and deposition.
MissTica

By abrasion, the sediment in the wind promotes erosion. The wind scatters sand, sand dunes created. When clay and silt are deposited by the wind. The presence of vegetation ground helps stop wind erosion.

<h3>What  is an erosion ?</h3>

Earthen materials were worn away during erosion, a geological process in which they are moved by water or wind. Weathering, a related process that does not involve movement, dissolves and breaks down rock.

<h3>What is caused by erosion?</h3>

The process through which the Earth's surface ages is known as erosion. Natural forces like wind or glacier ice can create erosion. But when it comes to altering the Earth, nothing compares to a slow, constant movement of water, as anyone who has ever seen a picture of a Grand Canyon will attest.

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

1.It's the world's most famous equation, but what does it really mean? "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing.

2.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.

3.In nuclear reactions, mass is never conserved—some mass is exchanged for energy and energy for mass. Nuclear reactions take place in an atom's nucleus. In a spontaneous nuclear reaction, such as radioactive decay, mass is "lost" and appears as energy in the form of particles or gamma rays.

4.In a nuclear reaction, mass decreases and energy increases. The sum of mass and energy is always conserved in a nuclear reaction.

5.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.
